'Our Percy was murdered by a man who should have been locked up'

Just two weeks earlier, Perseverance Ncube had been celebrating her 35th birthday. A mum-of-two, she had battled adversity but had managed to build a future for herself and her family.

She was aware of his past, but despite the reservations of friends, and given her trusting nature, Percy gave him a chance. The ‘intense’ relationship lasted about 18 months, before she caught him messaging and dating other women and told him it was over. Her children knelt by her side and preyed that their mum would pull through. He denied murdering her right up until the day he was due to go on trial when he belatedly confessed.

It is unclear exactly when Moyo was released from prison, but he was handed a 14 year sentence in 2013. As is standard practice, criminals serve either half or two-thirds of their sentence in prison before being granted release under certain conditions. Moyo was at liberty in April 2021 by the time he first met Percy.

“Our family is completely devastated and traumatised by Percy's death,” they said. “Everything has changed, including our relationships. Trusting people is hard now because you genuinely never know who someone is. “Now, we're trying to move on and do what's right for her young children. We're incredibly thankful for the support we've received from Percy's friends and the community; they've really lifted us up during this nightmare.”
