POLICE in Kitwe on Tuesday arrested former Kitwe Mayor Divo Katete for alleged defilement.

Mr. Katete was reported to the police by the victim’s family for allegedly defiling their 15year old daughter who summoned Mr. Katete for questioning at the Kitwe central police station.

The police at central later locked up Katete and said the matter is before Mufulira police and should be taken to Mufulira for further questioning.

” Our duty is to lock up Katete in the cells and wait for police in Mufulira who are handling the case. For us the instructions where that he (Katete) should be locked up when he reports because we are not the ones dealing with the case,” a police source said.

Mr. Katete is expected to appear in court on thursday.

  1. Mr Divo katete,,,First of all, your names,, Divo is a word/name next to Devil, Katete is a town not a human name,,,,, you should not have migrated to kitwe from katete,, not have moved from PF to MMD,, you are a confused and evil soul

    • There is nothing annoying and worse case Zambians have invented than “DEFILEMENT”. So many many innocent parents have been jailed for nonsense accusations.
      If a poor father failed to pay school fees, then the girl is defiled.

  2. Ba katete, what you did is an abomination. You did not live an exemplary life. Going for young girls is a definate no no. People look to former mayors for advise, but you behaved to the contrary. Now see where this unbecoming behaviour is taking you, right to the gallows. You will have plenty of time to reflect over there. Enjoy your stay while you are at it.
    And see what trouble you have put your family into. Total shame to the madam and kids. Be practical ba katete.

  3. Everyone is innocent until proven guilty. Let us wait for him to give his side of the story and go through the relevant investigate/interrogative procedures before we can condemn.

  4. PLIZ ZAMBIANS,LEARN TO TO CONDEMN ANYHOW.MR KATETE DIVO IS INNOCENT UNTIL PROVED GUILTY.THE SAME HAPPENED TO ME ,I WAS CONDEMNED,WHEN IT WAS ALLEGED THAT I WAS TO ORGANISE UPND YOUTHS TO GANG RAPE EDITH NAWAKWI.THE POST REPORTER FABRICATED THE STORY,IN THE END I WAS AQUITTED BY THE COURTS OF LAW AND NOW IAM A VERY FREE PERSON.SO WAIT FOR THE LAW TO TAKE ITS COURSE BEFORE YOU CRUCIFY MR KATETE DIVO.
