Popular tanzanian artiste, Kijakazi Pazi Shaban is reported to have died last week at her home after she was allegedly battered by her husband.

Zamzam, as popularly called, succumbed to the injuries gotten from a beating and died in her home in Musoma. E-daily of Kenya reported.

A source told the Tazanian newspaper, Amani, that Zamzam sent gory photos of her deformed, wounded face to friends, saying she had been cruelly beaten by her husband – and that if anything would happen to her, her husband should be held accountable.

He said, “Zamzam’s family asked the husband to allow them see their relative’s body before he could bury her in Kilimanjaro, of which he agreed.

“Postmortem performed at a Temeke hospital on Zamzam’s body revealed that the singer succumbed to her injuries following a beating.

Her husband, Hamad Ally who is a police officer, was reported to convey Zamzam’s body to a morgue in Temeke, Dar es Salaam after which he was arrested and is being held at Chang’ombe police station as investigations continue.

Reports claim that her husband tried to cover up the murder when he asked his boss for a vehicle to take her to hospital.

 

The family of the deceased said; “Sad news about Zamzam’s death reached us, and we were informed that she died as a result of stomach ulcers. Her husband then said he would bury her in Kilimanjaro area. But as family, we had to know why, and when.”
