The family squabbles over the burial of late socialite and video vixen, Michelle ‘Moana’ Amuli have spilt into the courts after her father allegedly attempted to ‘steal’ her remains.
The late fitness trainer’s burial, which was set for Friday at the Zororo Memorial Park in Harare, has been derailed by clashes between the maternal and paternal families.
Speaking at Parirenyatwa Hospital, Friday one of Moana’s aunts claimed the deceased’s father, Ishmael Amuli came to the same hospital Thursday evening and attempted to ‘steal’ his daughter’s remains at the mortuary when other family members had left.
“The burial has been delayed. We are still waiting to hear from Moana’s father who was supposed to collect the body at 10 am and take it to church,” she added.

The family is also demanding US$5 000 from relatives of the late Genius ‘Ginimbi’ Kadungure. The late Kadungure was driving the luxurious vehicle that was involved in an accident along Borrowdale Road, burning Moana and two other passengers beyond recognition.
Moana’s maternal relatives have since filed an urgent chamber application at the High Court seeking to stop Ishmael Amuli from proceeding with the burial process of Moana after he attempted to ‘steal’ her remains Thursday evening. Ginimbi was buried last weekend in Domboshava.
“We have failed to reach common ground, and so we have involved our lawyers. He (Ishmael Amuli) does not a legal team, but we do”. NewZimbabwe
