Artwel Mabhena, whose age I have not been able to verify was a Brethren in Chrsit Church employee in what is known as the Gwayi District (conference), in Zimbabwe. He was a mainatnance worker at the church's mission hospital, Pumula during the time of the genocide era in Zimbabwe, which started at the beginning of 1983. His congregation was Phelandaba Brethren in Christ Church. The North Korean trained militia, picked him up from the hospital on the basis that the church was not functioning as a church but base for the opposition party which was supposedly supporting dissidents. They asked him to denounce the church,if he wanted to live but he did not and they killed him. They asked his collegues to beat him up and they ended up driving up a knife through him and he died. The staff was ordered to bury him, at a shallow grave near the mission there. When his wife heard that her husband had been killed, she went into comma for several months and when she recovered from the comma, she became mentally ill to this day. | Artwel Mabhena, whose age I have not been able to verify was a Brethren in Chrsit Church employee in what is known as the Gwayi District (conference), in Zimbabwe.
