ZAMBIA: THREE TO HANG FOR BURYING AUNT ALIVE

Kabwe High Court has sentenced three people to death by hanging for murder after finding them guilty of killing their 70-year-old aunt by burying her alive on suspicion of practicing witchcraft.
Mr Justice Charles Zulu said Aaron Ngosa, 48, Lyson Kunda, 53, and 28-year-old Kelvin Mwewa of Serenje District in Central Province should be hanged until pronounced dead for murdering Jean Bangwe in April last year by burying her alive.
This was a case in which the three were jointly charged with murder.
