A 21-YEAR-OLD Bulawayo man has appeared in court for allegedly stabbing his father following a domestic dispute.
Denzel Clement pleaded guilty to the charges when he appeared before magistrate Vakayi Chikwekwe on Tuesday.
He was granted US$100 bail and remanded to May 15.
The court heard that on April 24, at 7:30 pm in Sauerstown, Bulawayo, Denzel's father Obert (44) had a misunderstanding with his wife over a phone call that she had just received.
She stormed out of the house to file a police report.
Denzel followed her outside and returned a few minutes later demanding his mother's phone but his father dug in.
In a fit of rage, Denzel allegedly pushed his father against a television stand before stabbing him with a kitchen knife on the left shoulder and forearm.
A police report led to his arrest.
