The Kitwe
High Court has set October as the time it will rule whether the 19 suspected
members of the notorious Tokota Boys gang have a case to answer or not in the
three charges they are facing.
This follows the prosecution’s closure of its case this morning after the last of the eight witnesses finished testifying against the 19 suspects today.
This follows the prosecution’s closure of its case this morning after the last of the eight witnesses finished testifying against the 19 suspects today.
When the
matter came up this morning, Kitwe High Court Judge-In-Charge Timothy Katanekwa gave the defence up to 14 September to file its written submission and advised
the state to respond by 21st September.
Justice
Katanekwa said in his October session, he will rule on the matter.
The 19, who
are mostly bus drivers, conductors, shopkeepers and unemployed youths of Kitwe,
are facing three counts which are acts intended to cause grievious harm, unlawful
wounding or poisoning and abduction or kidnapping.
They have
been remanded in the Kamfinsa Correctional Facility for the past three months
after their arrest as the three charges they face are unbailable.
Earlier, a
Police Detective Sergeant who arrested 15 of the 19 suspected members of the
Tokota Boys old the court that Mwamba Siame who is popularly known as
Mayweather is still on the run.
During cross
examination led by defence lawyer Mwendalubi Kapukutula, Sergeant Peter Mujuku,
who was the eight prosecution witness, said investigations into Mayweather's whereabouts are still ongoing.
Mayweather is believed to be a top commander of the Tokota Boys gang and was captured in a
video where he assaulted a 17 year old teenager of Mulenga Compound who he
later forced to eat his own faecal matter.
During
trial, the state presented the said video as evidence and it was viewed in
court.
Meanwhile,
Justice Katanekwa has sentenced a 56 year old peasant farmer of Chingola to 20
years imprisonment for having carnal knowledge of his own niece.
Passing
sentence in an incest case which has taken over a year to prosecute, Justice
Katanekwa said he was going to be lenient to Feneti Kayombo especially that he
was an old man.
He described
the convict’s act as irresponsible.
Justice
Katanekwa said it was sad that Mr Kayombo took advantage of his niece at the
time she was nursing a snake bite.
However, the
Kitwe High Court Judge-In-Charge gave Mr Kayombo leave to appeal if he felt the
sentence was not fair.

ReplyDeleteIrrespective of receiving daily oral or future injectable depot therapies, these require health care visits for medication and monitoring of safety and response. If patients are treated early enough, before a lot of immune system damage has occurred, life expectancy is close to normal, as long as they remain on successful treatment. However, when patients stop therapy, virus rebounds to high levels in most patients, sometimes associated with severe illness because i have gone through this and even an increased risk of death. The aim of “cure”is ongoing but i still do believe my government made millions of ARV drugs instead of finding a cure. for ongoing therapy and monitoring. ARV alone cannot cure HIV as among the cells that are infected are very long-living CD4 memory cells and possibly other cells that act as long-term reservoirs. HIV can hide in these cells without being detected by the body’s immune system. Therefore even when ART completely blocks subsequent rounds of infection of cells, reservoirs that have been infected before therapy initiation persist and from these reservoirs HIV rebounds if therapy is stopped. “Cure” could either mean an eradication cure, which means to completely rid the body of reservoir virus or a functional HIV cure, where HIV may remain in reservoir cells but rebound to high levels is prevented after therapy interruption.Dr Itua Herbal Medicine makes me believes there is a hope for people suffering from,Cancer,Hiv_ Aids,Herpes,Copd,Diabetes,Hepatitis,I read about him online how he cure Tasha and Tara so i contacted him on drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com even talked on whatsapps +2348149277967 believe me it was easy i drank his herbal medicine for two weeks and i was cured just like that isn't Dr Itua a wonder man?
