Grandfather defiles granddaughter

A 16 year old girl has been defiled by his grandfather in Sinazongwe district in Southern Province.

Maamba police has since arrested the man who allegedly defiled the girl on two occasions in December 2007 and this year in April.

Police sources identified the man as Joseph Jere of Maamba old Township who enticed the girl into having sex with him.

Last month during the District Development Coordinating Committee (DDCC) both Sinazongwe and Maamba police reported the increasing number of defilement cases in the district.

In February Sinazongwe District Acting Education Board Secretary (DEBS) Sitwiinda Sikabanga revealed stunning results of 128 girls who were married in 2007 from January to December while 87 girls were pregnant.

Mrs. Sikabanga told the gathering that included village headmen from Chief Sinazongwe area and Senior Chief Mweemba that 99 married girls were recorded from the 43 government Schools in the district and 83 three pregnancies.

She said out of the 36 Community Schools in the district 29 girls got married while four had pregnancies.
Police sources said most parents fail to report defilement cases on time and prefer to settle them outside court.

  1. It shows how immoral and wicked a human being has become. You did not tell us how old Jere is? He was not ashamed of himself.

  2. It shows how immoral and wicked a human being has become. You did not tell us how old Jere is? He was not ashamed of himself. Why did the granddaughter refuse? She was also interested in the game. Maybe there was a raw deal that is why it was reported.

  3. Bwana Jere is a Rabbid hyena which needs to be caged for a long period of time. you law enforcers who are on the ground should make sure that imbecile is punished severely.We don’t want the kind of the vedict we got from findlay.

  4. Randy grandpas are on an increase. We are in the last days of Earth’s history.

  5. Read what the bible says the sins of the last days without natral affection its sad

  6. Yes, Godly people know that these are perilous times and spiritual warfare is on. On our knees! Armageddon time.

  7. Is LT managed from sinazongwe? why do we have more coverage on sinazongwe than other districts?

  8. It is very sad that we cannot trust our own relatives around our children. Sexual acts with minors should be severely prosecuted. There is no such thing as “she was also interested in the game” when it comes to minors because there is such a thing as brainwashing. A brainwashed child may think that it is okay to say yes to such immoral acts. This Jere guy needs to be de-balled, he needs his testicles removed and stuffed in his mouth.

  9. LT,may you please answer my simple question,Is LT headquartered in Sinazongwe?or is that LT journalists prefer sinazongwe to other districts in need of them.Its too much!

  10. Iwe JERE ndiwe chipuwa. All the way from Chipata to come and defile in the Democratic Republic Of TONGASTAN. Who told you we need expatriate defilers in Southen province. Bazakumanga 30years uzachiona. Elo kujele kulibe bakazi. Kubbwalo naye mukazi wako bazasala bakwatila. Muziganiza. Unamwa tunda mbuzi olo ng’amba nini??? Yakuletelela manje waona.

  11. This is really sad. Some of these criminals need to be hanged better yet lets cut off their genitals feed them their own genitals and then we hang them till they are pronounced dead both in heaven and hell. I think that would be fair.

  12. Christ was killed he must have proved to be insensitive to the problems society was facing at the time,the New Testament with all its books never touches on the issue of incest.coming back to the topic why is it that there is a lot of incest in southern and western province?

  13. what are you people complaining about? This is very bad yes but at 16 what was she wearing to attract an old man’s attention like that? These girls even at Munali secondary at 15 yrs with big breast and buns like watermelons, what can a man do?
    I am married but i find myself tempted everyday i drive by that light. Its too much these girls of nowadays are so big they look like they are over 18 yrs and adults, they put powder and come to chez ntemba looking good, its very hard to resist bane, am sorry but i sm speaking my mind here.

  14. hear! hear! Twachilamo utwaiche utu. I’ve made it a habit to ask the kiddos mu club what school they go to. I hear “Kansenshi”, end of story! The chaps are on the loose they seek happiness in the wrong places and are very quick to open their legs!

  15. #19 lunda Are saying you can do it with your granddaughter because/if she looks good Or she is skimpily dressed? I thought a sane grand dad would admonish the chap for skimpy dressing if that was the “offence”

  16. well said 22 all these condoning this behaviour are pedophiles and LT should block them u must be ashamed

  17. The fact of the matter is that Tongas think of nothing apart from indiscriminate sex with numerous wives, nieces, sisters aunts, cows, goats and even chickens. These epeople have the most pathetic and stinking culture only paralleled by the Luapulan’s pangent for stinking stealing.

  18. The gvt must introduce the stoning to death penalt so that perpertrators of such offences may end

  19. mr Matonga buhule pee,
    not all tongas are like that so pliz mind what you write

  20. stiffer punishment could help cub the situation and sensitisation in the communities sholud be done. there are more girls who are difiled but just keep quite.

  21. Tongas…awe mwe. Wajata n’gombe, wajata nkuku, wajata mbuzi, wajata garu,wajata mwana and soon to come wajata musankwa muzako. Shame.

  22. No. 29 oh my gosh i have laughed so loud. Are you tonga or you have lived with them you are so graphical in the description.

  23. What is this about Tongas? I think we all know that JERE is not a Tonga name. The man probably had to seek refuge in our lands due to his peccadiloes coming to light wherever he came from.
    You all need to shift this criticisim from TONGAS to JERE.

  24. By the way, Tongas are the best Tribe in Zambia. No, make that the world. I am a proud Tonga.
