    • This woman Ngulube is on fire, all her cases are ending in death sentence. Even stealing chicken.
      Looks like judges under PF are pissed off!

    • The ldiots should hang by the balls. They are lucky in Zambia the death penalty only exists on paper but is not being carried out.

    • Iwe Kambwanga, they stole a Vitz and murdered somebody; a Rebecca Daka, wife of a teacher of Chiziye Primary School. Even the HEADLINE itself makes this clear: “Two youths to hang for murder and aggravated robbery.”
