Man who blamed dead wife for fatal crash convicted

A DRUNK driver who dragged his dying wife from the passenger seat of their car to blame her for the fatal crash was convicted of causing death by careless driving in Britain yesterday.

Vimbai Chakudunga was spotted pulling his 30-year-old wife Claire from the vehicle after they smashed into trees in a garden in Ravenshead, Notts, just weeks after their wedding.

The student nurse from Mansfield, who was branded “vermin” by his victim’s family, walked away from the horrific crash with minor injuries.
