  "summary": "HARARE, Zimbabwe (AP) — The Zimbabwean community gathered on Tuesday for the funeral of a Zimbabwean-born mother and her two daughters who were found dead at their home in the UK. The victims, 42-year-old Nothabo Zandile Tshuma, 15-year-old Natalie, and 5-year-old Nala, died from head injuries after relatives reported they could not reach the family. Their husband and father, British citizen Ndodana Mkhanyisi Tshuma, was arrested in South Africa and faces murder charges. The family described the killings as \"an unbearably painful journey,\" and their mother had dreamed of her daughters growing up to be \"confident, educated and God-loving young women.\" Ndodana Mkhanyisi Tshuma was arrested in Johannesburg last month following a joint operation involving Interpol and South African police, and South African courts will consider a request to extradite him to the U.K.",
