Zanemvula was an old man. His wife passed away. So he needed a wife, he did not want to be alone. He was 60 years old.  He was staying in rural areas. Claire was a beautiful woman of 24 years. She was an educated woman and focused one. She was a career woman. She was working in Advertising industry. She was a classy woman.

She decided to take leave from work to visit her parents to Lady Frère. Her parents wanted her to get married because they wanted cows (Lobola). They were worried that their daughter is getting old but not married yet. They told this old guy, and he was interested. So Claire was sent to the river to fetch water, on her way to the river, five guys were standing, waiting for her. They grabbed her and she streamed, but no one helped her .these guys were singing and took her to this old man house. They told her that she is the wife of Zanemvula. At night the old man forced Claire to sleep with her. She did not want to, but the old man was hitting Claire. Claire got a chance she took a knife and stabbed the old man until he died. Claire was found guilty of murder by the community but law found the death man guilty of Rape.

That’s the story of an old man and the young ended.
