Three children of the same family found dead in Senanga District

Share

Three children between the ages of three and five years old and of the same family were last week found dead some five kilometers away from their village.

Police Spokes person Nadula Siamana confirmed the incidence yesterday adding that among the three deceased was a seven year old girl who was found alive but in a confused state.

Miss Siamana said Police suspects a foal play in the case as the bodies of the deceased juveniles were found intact while their necks seemed to have been tempered with.

Miss Siamana further said that the four children were abducted from home on Monday last week at around 10 hours.

She said one suspect who is a close relative to the children has since surrendered himself to the Police adding that Police was still investigating the matter as postmortem has not yet been conducted.

  1. May the souls of these children rest in peace. Why dying so young? We hope the criminal will be brought to answer for his actions.

  2. Take care of your families guys during this run up to elections. Some of these politicians can be sooo desperate they’ll try anything including the satanic. Watch out! Hey, where is kaka?

  3. Its satanic whose trying to sacrific these kids for his popularity in the province mwaziba!

  4. People are murking their own children because of poverty. Engage these villagers in family planning so that they can have manageable broods.

  5. Did I miss something here – were these children killed by their own parents? Where does it say so in the article? Apparently Zambia is a country full of people living in poverty. If poverty leads to parents killing their children, then surely this sad situation would not even be newsworthy? The thinking of some people in trying to politicise everything is just astounding.

  6. Too bad, why killing young children? These are the last days. Let us all pray for these young souls. I urge the police command in Senanga to investigate and bring the culprit to book. Madam Siamana, make sure the Police in Senanga speeds up this case. May there Soul Rest in Peace.

  7. POLICE MUST NOT RUSH THE RELATIVE WHO SURRENDERED IN QUICK ADMITION SO THAT HE REVEALS FULL DETAILS AND MOTIVE+SUSPECTS.
    POLICE DO IT THE- Ci (Crime investigation) way.Protect the suspect who surrendered ,because the hidden ENGINEERS may eliminate him to cover evidence. REMEMBER John F Kennedy suspect how he was treated.

  8. ”among the three deceased was a seven year old girl who was found alive but in a confused state.” This certainly is contradictory. LT please employ graduates of good schools to write good English. May the children’s souls rest in peace (MTCSRIP). These Lozis! All they think of is buhobe and hopani and if you deny them that then you risk your neck. Probably the children were perceived to be finishing buhobe in the house thus contributing to hunger.

  9. Buhobe is to a Lozi bull what s.e.x is to a Tonga bull. In simple terms to you ladies out there, give your Lozi bull buhobe before anything else and give your Tonga bull s.e.x before anything else. You abuse this rule, your marriage is on the rocks

  10. Tribalist #10, thanks; I was going to raise the same concern. It is traumatic to imagine children so young dying like that! MTSRIP!!

  11. LT It’s Foul play not ‘foal’ and tampered not ‘tempered’.
    It’s wicked if a family member caused the deaths of these innocent children.

  12. #16 Mrs Pretty. I remember that one… It was the work of 1 indiciplined soldier in the name of……….

  13. #12 Tribalist and #13 Kalok.

    Show some sensitivity! Even if you have nothing to blog about, there are lives that were lost here (MTSRIP). Why are you fermenting tribal hatred when this article has no tribal inclinations. Grow up! If want someone to quarrel with, try me and I’ll be on your case, silly!

  14. This story is badly written. Are the children siblings? May Their Souls Rest in Eternal Peace. The police must do a good job and get to the bottom of these murders. This is despicable to say the least.

  15. This is really sad. Why do that to innocent children? I hope the police beat the balls out of the suspect before he even spews the truth. These people have no idea what kind of trauma the surving child is facing. I hope God’s judgement visits them in due time!!!
