Bloom Tizora, 2025

What happens when the truth becomes the evidence of a lie? This is the question that anchors the story of Kuda Dube, a young man whose life was abruptly and violently bifurcated one December night in Bindura. He was, ironically, a final-year Social Science student at the Bindura University of Science and Technology (BUST), immersed in writing a dissertation on the failures of the judicial system. His reality was academic, his focus was on justice, and his greatest crime was being exhausted after a long shift. Kuda took a night job as a security guard to finance his education. On the night of the robbery—a brutal, high-stakes raid that saw masked men steal over two hundred thousand dollars—Kuda was not an accomplice; he was a victim. He was threatened, bound with his own handcuffs, and forced to witness the systematic dismantling of the property he was paid to protect. His dog, his sole companion, was the only reason he complied. The pages that follow do not recount a traditional thriller, but a harrowing examination of how the machinery of justice can be weaponized against the innocent. Kuda's tragic flaw was his honesty. After the robbers fled, leaving him cuffed in the dirt, he performed two acts that would seal his doom: he reported the theft immediately, and, critically, he reported the handful of forgotten cash the thieves missed, treating it as evidence. In the cold logic of the courtroom, this transparent, almost naive honesty was twisted into calculated guilt. Why would a victim survive unscathed? Why would an accomplice leave behind evidence? The State's narrative was simple, clean, and devastating: Kuda was a collaborator. His untouched personal items and his reported find became the proof he had orchestrated his own violation. Convicted and sentenced to seventeen years in prison, Kuda Dube was forced to inhabit the very 'Social Architecture of Incarceration' he had just critiqued in his prize-winning dissertation. The Bindura Injustice is a testament to the quiet, relentless power of betrayal—not just by the criminals who staged the robbery, but by a system that prioritizes circumstantial simplicity over complex truth. This novel is a journey through Kuda's struggle, fueled by the unwavering devotion of his family and the ticking clock of a final High Court appeal. It asks us to look beyond the docket and consider the immense personal cost when the pursuit of justice is blinded by convenience, and when the simplest act of integrity leads directly to ruin. Kuda's fight for freedom is a fight for the very definition of truth.
