A British man refused to take a failed relationship he had with a Zimbabwean woman lightly and decided to sue the woman.
Neale Hogg demanded all the money he used while romancing, Martha Muzhange, nurse from Zimbabwe over an 18 month period. The bill which came to £3,250 covered hotel stays, meals, clothes and an engagement ring.
So desperate did the situation get that he sent letters to her fellow church members to get help in recovering the money.
Now the courts have slapped Hogg with a 12-month community order and told to have treatment for alcohol addiction. Magistrates also granted a restraining order preventing him from approaching or contacting mother-of-two Muzhange, who arrived in Britain from Zimbabwe in 2002.
The poor man has now decided to get real and is no longer asking for the money.
Hogg needs to get out more. Every man has series of failed relationships where time and money were lost but you can’t then go out itemising a bill and demanding restitution as if the woman in question did not lose something as well in the failed romance.
