Chipata man now burns in-laws

Share

The Chipata man of Navutika compound who set his two sons ablaze using petrol has reportedly burnt his in-laws.

Police sources have confirmed to QFM News but could not give further details.

The man went into hiding after setting his sons ablaze who are admitted to Chipata General Hospital nursing burns.

Efforts to get a comment from eastern province commissioner of police by broadcast time proved futile.

Meanwhile a combined team of the Zambia police intellectual property Unit, Zambia Revenue Authority (ZRA), Zambia Bureau of Standards and Lusaka City Council has seized an assortment of counterfeit goods in Kamwala trading area worth K120 million.

Acting police spokesperson Rae Hamoonga has told journalists in Lusaka today that the goods confiscated include fake Colgate tooth paste and garden tools as well as pirated DVDs and CDs.

Mr.Hamoonga noted 8 Zambian businessmen have since been arrested and charged with counterfeiting trademark contrary to section 377 Cap 87 of the penal code and unfair trading contrary to section 12 cap 417 of the competition and fair trading Act.

Mr. Hamoonga has since urged the members of the public to ensure that they buy their groceries from reputable supermarkets to avoid the risk of being subjected to counterfeit goods which pose a threat to their health.

  1. “The man went into hiding after setting his sons ablaze who are admitted to Chipata General Hospital nursing burns.”
    It was reported on ZNBC 19:00hours yesturday news that one child has since died.

  2. The name of the compound is depressing, ati ” Navituka” Please
    Pathetic Front,
    put money in people’s pockets like you promised so that everyone can live in peace. Money is the cause of most matrimonial conflicts.

  3. If this happened when RB was president, guess who pf sympathisers would be blaming for the actions of this man?

  4. Ala bane ibange lya kuchipata likali too much cultivating fwaka from that part of our country and some of fwaka overspill from Malawi into Chipata. Anyway this guy should quickly be arrested and caged before he commits more homicides.

  5. Mr Hamoonga should consider arresting the manufacturer if he have to stop this flow of fake goods.. We are tired of toothless bull dogs.

  6. @Pippa you are right – the name does make me worry, too. But then again, I suppose the guy’s name is Mabvuto!!!

  7. if only zambia can see what this man has done. we dont need such people on earth. let him apply for fire attendants in hell

  8. Zambian Police are sick. They can’t fish out this imbecile? That’s why they were killed by a lone villager in SP

  9. Going by his actions this man has suffered a psychological stress and is running mad. this should have been triggered by the discovery of the true parentage of his children. May be he discovered that someone else fathered his children and the inlaws knew about it.He must be caged coz he is mad.
