A Zimbabwean journalist was forced to roll in the mud after he was caught in bed with a married woman.

Clayton Masekesa, who works with Newsday newspapers, was allegedly caught at the home of Mutare City Football Club secretary general, Soul Tom.

Sou Tom's wife is believed to be Masekesa's lover, iHarare reports.

As a result, Masekesa was humiliated and it was all caught on video. The video has now gone viral and it shows Masekesa being interrogated, beaten, humiliated by being made to display condoms, and forced to roll in the mud.

The video has generated outrage and social media users are demanding that the Police investigate the circumstances surrounding the "derogatory punishment" after he was allegedly caught in a "compromising position" with another man’s wife.

Lawyer Miriam Majome said the "barbarism" in the videos is unacceptable. "Adultery is not a crime; so, there was nothing to report to the Police.

"There are civil remedies open to the husband such as adultery damages and divorce. This barbarism is unacceptable. Generally, the increasing lawlessness in this country is disappointing," she tweeted.
