A mentally challenged man Levi Musenda was brutally beaten to death by Presidential guards who accused him of trying to break into the State House.

Musenda attempted to enter the heavily guarded State House, along Chancellor Avenue in the capital, which is the official residency of the State President.

Levy Musenda, who died aged 34 is said to have left his Mufakose home on August 19 without the knowledge of his family and never returned.

This prompted the family to file a missing person report case at a police station in Harare in a desperate bid to locate him.

According to the family, they later on received a phone call inviting them to Harare Central Police Station where they were moved from office to office before on being advised that Levy had passed on.

The family was not allowed to see the body at Parirenyatwa Hospital mortuary; they were only shown the face to confirm identification.

Mudenda’s family is demanding an inquest into the mysterious death of of their son following subsequent attempts to cover up.
