A 35 year old house wife in Luanshya has been sentenced to six months simple imprisonment by the Luanshya magistrate court for beating up and indecent exposure of her husbands’ girl friend.
Appearing before Luanshya magistrate Edward Banda was Given Shamfuti of house number 2 second class residential area who was jointly charged with a 17 year old male juvenile.
Particulars of the offence were that on 1st February 2014, in Luanshya district of the Copperbelt, jointly and whilst acting together, the duo did assault Olipa Mumbi thereby occasioning her actual bodily harm and stripping her naked.
Facts before court were that on 1st February 2014 Mumbi was at Manda tavern drinking beer, when Shamfuti came and started accusing Mumbi of flirting with her husband and in the process dragged Mumbi, hitting her with fists, causing her to sustain bruises on the back, swollen left eye and general body pains.
Mumbi stated that she reported the matter to Luanshya central police were a medical report was issued and she was treated at Thomson hospital, which lead to the apprehension of the accused.
Meanwhile, Shamfuti who pleaded guilty in matter, denied having found Mumbi at a tavern but that she caught her naked with her husband in their matrimonial home.
In mitigation Shamfuti pleaded for leniency from the court.
In passing judgment Magistrate Banda said he was alarmed by the trait of married women taking the law into their hands and initiating mob justice.
Banda however warned Mumbi to stay away from married men because next time she would be beaten to death or contract the deadly sexually transmitted disease.
But the Juvenile pleaded not guilty and his case was adjourned to 28 July for commencement of trial.
Second class bltch from house # 2, 2nd class residential area indeed!
Why not beat up your husband? He is the one who is married and shouldn’t flirt with single women.
Good show ba Judge. Thanks for teaching this wife a lesson. Doesn’t she know her husband’s a girlfriend has great potential of becoming the nation’s first lady as history has shown?
Vera was chiluba’s girfriend while working as his maid, Maureen was Levy’s Girlfriend while she was a student at UNZA, and of cource the latest one Kaseba was Sata’s one of the main girfriends while working at UTH. That is the potential and power of a girfriend , let this wife learn her lesson not to touch husband’s girfriends.
Banda iwe siumvela!
Very dull comment. How can you honestly make a case for marriages that began illegally. Besides, have you ever wondered how FTJ and LPM were feeling towards the end. Things were not good as what goes around comes around. The infidelity never stopped.
Ba Bourne – when God was handing out a sense of humour were you AWOL like abena Kays Katongo? What our friend A Banda is writing is called I R O N Y – get it?
Ati Banda kupusa!
Iwe chi “Corner Kick Banda” walitumpa sana. As much as I do not condone the beating of the alleged girlfriend, I also do not support promiscuity. It is wrong for a married man to have girlfriends. Am sure you are a bastard child, your mother was girlfriend to your father whilst he was a married man.
Iwe naiwe Boko Haram ajokinga chabe
Good decision by the court.No action can justify causing bodily harm on another individual.Glad the rule of law prevailed and not sentiments.
Praise Kazimu’s mother for not beating up giant Kilistina Kaseba.
Ki ki ki you have cracked me up man.Lol
Nostrodamus has recovered from the brutalisation of the backside? He must have fully recovered i can tell from this unsavoury comments.
@ Boko Haram
Thats the best way to conclude. I liked your comment.
In cases in infidelity, the spouse should be blamed – not the girlfriend/boyfriend (i.e. spice).
Yes, the man was wrong in having a girlfriend, but even if you beat her up, the man will just find another one.
Deal with your spouse, not the spice.

No wonder STIs and AIDS are rampant in Zambia ifya bupuba fyalichilamo! Just imagine if it is your sister who is being cheated on let say your mother, would you really have the ball to even support such things. I hope that women sues that girl for marriage interference once she is freed!
6 months without your wife fimo fimo sure…so sad!
Ummh, so the ungrateful so the promiscuous man must be having an early christmas which his home-wrecking W…….E. What a useless man anyway what do you expect typical zambian males never satisfied with what they have. Mushota does Nick have a younger brother?
Why do you ladies go for married men that will leave you with fatherless children? Those children will never be treated as legitimate and often end up as street kids or orphans, these men infect you poor ladies with diseases, ladies please why settle to be treated as a second rate fling just for a few nights at a guest lodge some ciders, chips and sausage??? There are many single men, good single men out there. A married man that goes around sleeping with other women must be made an example of by the law. If we are to weigh the ramifications of a married man carelessly sleeping with other women and girls which can lead to spread of HIV, unwanted pregnancies, broken homes to other issues like the much publicized Bobby East and before that Iris video i think these married men are worse!!!
ctn..so really to expand on what Maiko Zulu said recently regarding the Bobby East uproar from Zambians that are “holier than thou”, truelly Zambians are hypocrites.Here is a situation which is even more serious than what happened with Bobby East but what has happened to the married man who is really the cause of all this??? Why hasnt the man been prosecuted by the state as well for bigamy???Promiscuous married men are destroying ladies all over Zambia, many of these ladies become stranded with kids and not many single men will want to marry them, can the law please take its course and begin meting out stiff and hard penalties to these married devils!!! I think we have have had enough of these married men messing around. Marriage is an agreement between 2 people in the presence of God!
