Man found in possession of pornographic material

Share

A 46 year old man of Siavonga Township in Southern province yesterday appeared in the Siavonga magistrate court charged with the offence of possessing pornographic materials.

Henry Sakala, a Lodge manager at Eagles Rest, appeared before magistrate Veronica Sikwangala to answer the charge.

Particulars of the offence are that Sakala, a resident of Kaleya compound, was found in possession of obscene materials, contrary to section 177 (1) (a) of the penal code, chapter 87 of the laws of Zambia.

The court heard that on 21st January 2009, Sakala was found with nine obscene DVDs, which tends to corrupt morals of people in the country.

Sakala told the court that he understood the charge. The court has since set February 10, 2009 for plea and possible commencement of trial.

The accused, who has been in custody since his arrest on the 21st of January, was however released on a K5 million bail.

Meanwhile, trial for the three persons accused of stealing some items from the accident scene, commenced in the Siavonga magistrate court yesterday.

Seven state witnesses have so far testified before magistrate Sikwangala and have since implicated a bus driver, a taxi driver and a bus conductor who were arrested by police in connection with the theft of the items.

The stolen items involved a cassette radio, cell phone, passport and undisclosed sums of money belonging to the deceased Interpol officer who was based at Kariba border post.

The three men are alleged to have taken turns removing the items from a golf car that the deceased police officer was driving.
Trial continues on February 3rd, 2009.

  6. Matters like such are a private issue that adults should be free to indulge in in their own private homes . The law should only draw a line if pornography is put on a public platform. A law like such is archaic because zambia already corrupted it’s morals a long time ago , so this is as good as closing the barn while the horse is already gone. Pornography is more widespread than people refuse to accept in zambia with widespread internet and 3g phones. Zambia is not a moral utopia in fact so laws trying to protect certain morals are useless

  20. Supergal

    hello dear! good to know! i visited the page yesterday and tremendous efforts has been made by well wishers! we can only thank God. Please do likewise!

  21. DVD’S
    mOST OF US KEEP OUR COLLECTION ON PASSWORD PROTECTED EXTERNAL HARDDRIVES. THE MAN IS DWANZY BECAUSE DVD’S AND MAGAZINES WILL ALWAYS GET YOU CAUGHT. IF HE WAS SMART HE WOULD GO TO SITES LIKE TUBE8 OR XVIDEOS AND WATCH TO HIS PLEASURE AND MOVE ON WITHOUT DOWNLOADING. THE INDUSTRY HAS GROWN WE EVEN HAVE ZAMBIAN STARS FILIMING

  22. HEY WHY ARE YOU ALL PRETENDING!!! ARE YOU USING COMPUTERS WITH A KEYLOCK FOR PORNS ON THE NET OR WHAT?

    IS YOUR INTERNET FILTERED? IS BIG BROTHER WATCHING YOU?

    THERE ARE SO MANY SITES ON THE INTERNET YOU ARE USING WHERE YOU CAN WATCH THESE MOVIES FOR FREE!! IT IS ALSO LEGAL!!

    WHY ARREST THE MAN WHEN THE WORLD WIDE WEB IS FULL OF THIS MATERIAL!!! SOME POP UP IN YOUR FACE WITHOUT CLICKING ON THEM!!

    ZEDIANS COME ONE.

    YOU MAY ASWELL ARREST SOMEONE USING INTERNET!!!

    ANYWAYS MAYBE TOO MUCH CENSORSHIP IN ZED AND THAT IS WHY YOU MOVE AROUND WITH PORN MATERIAL LIKE IN KINDERGARTEN!! WHAT A SHAME

  23. POrn and regulated prostitution should be legalised in Zambia its got potential to reduce poverty.

    POrn industry in America is worth $1 Billions every year. Prostitution in Holland, Belguim, and other European countries provide vital incomes.

    Just a thot 😉

  24. Baby C

    Romour has it was claiming to be Pinkly so I asked him his favourite cartoon LT since I know pinkly’s. :o):o)

  25. Ati shani? You want porn in weekly pictures!!! Imwe bantu be serious. But I doubt if this Sakala man is from the East. Uku ku Southern kaya vamene bamadya. Most of these funny issues come from there.

  26. Ba Chewe chance iyi yamoneka. Go back home and attend this man`s trial. It will be “behind closed doors”.

    Rashid sure yalaonaula abaice.

  27. Hypocrites!!! Zambia has one of the highest rates of HIV with or without porn material. Maybe if they allowed the porn, guys could figure out other ways of relief instead of actual sexual intercourse! I would be surprised if that same Magistrate has a collection of porn in their closet. HYPOCRITES!!! Go get the hookers off the streets instead!!!

  28. # 116 JAMACO IS NOT A SHUSHUSHU!!!

    I JUST HAPPEN TO HAVE ACCESS TO A LOT OF NETWORK-DATA!!

    I AM WORKING FOR A COMPANY WHERE WE ALSO PROVIDE HIGH SPEED INTERNET THROUGH THE CABLE TV NETWORK!! ALSO PROVIDE TELEPHONY AND DIGITAL TV!!

    CHEERS

  29. AT LEAST MORE COMMENTS ON THIS THREAD THAN ANY OTHER TODAY!!

    JUST SHOWS WHAT ALL NEED!!!

    :d

    BAMBI NABAFULA NOKUFULA WHILE BLOGGING :d

  30. That guy is crazy, he deserves to be put in jail. I wonder if a man holding a position of manager could engage in such acts. Am sure he has corrupted a lot of young ones in Siavongo. Ba Police a job well done manje imwe ma mfumu who wear black garments sent the guy to Chilubi Island and Govt should create a prison for such guys.
    Animals are even behaving better than humans. In a Christain Nation pipo like saks are there hiding.

  31. It is my opinion that the law regarding pornography is victorian,archaic and completetly unsuited for the society we live in today.Porn for private use by an adult is ok by me. How many movies with explicit violence are out on the streets? Lets respect privacy.

  32. Well,the law is the law so the guy will be dealt with by the law however,i feel the law needs to be changed so that they only ban the importation of pornographic material & selling because if Police find me with a dvd in my own house how do i corrupt the morals of society,i have a big stash of porn dvd’s myself but they are for my personal use,in my own bedroom with my wife,when i return to Zambia,they should only trouble me for bringing a huge amount not a single dvd for personal use.

  33. Sakala was found with nine obscene DVDs, which tends to corrupt morals of people in the country.
    Interesting some people still think we have morals in this country.how can there be when we are seeing G strings in buses and no one complains.Let the poor man help himself,i hear this stuff is sold publicly on the street in Isreal,the so-called HOLY LAND for religions.

  34. Imwe bamene munkhala ku vyalo, ndimwe bamene muononga calo chatu. Azungu anamuononga ka. That is reason AIDS ya phaka because of imwe baku vyalo.

  35. C’mon!
    Leave the guy alone!
    Possession of porn should be made legal but the production and distribution of it illegal!
    Blöödy hypocrites!!

  36. its true pone is everywere and am watching one wright now.i even watch pon with my neiboure;s wife who happens to be a wife to a policeman so what can u tell me. :((

  37. Ye kwena too bad for the guy. We all do in one way of the other watch pornos just like we are all thieves in some way but we are too smart to be caught. Poor guy.

  38. You are right! this stuff is everywhere! its so embarassing! G-strings and half buttocks are being exposed esp in buses. Not to mention the ubulungu! And we call ourselves a christian nation!

  39. Ba Maureen (#158)…..porn is here to stay…..whether we are using it to learn new tricks or to jump start the car, its not going anywhere! Zambia just needs to catch up with the rest of the world and stop pretending. No wonder our leaders are always pa SA fro treatment because they are hypocrites. After watching ama porno…they try out new tricks and “bust” their backs!!! A check of our Govt officials homes will reveal the best porn collections you have ever seen!!! keezmovies dot com

  40. Even those girls in fairview should be arrested! thats porn ….at its best! its not fair! they should also arrest their customers! in this case..men :d

  41. The ones on the buses are not G strings. they luk more of ropes to me. and ladies be ware of what you wrap down there. some of the chinese strings coz cancer!!

  42. im a zambian theres nothing wrong in this materials i live in russia where this material is everywhere say wat you say i will continue watching it

    edited

  44. why should the Goverment prescribe people what to watch and what to not watch? this is not a communist country, if lawmakers are too old to watch pornos they must watch chintobentobe

    Freedom of speech
    Freedom of watching movies too
