The Balaka First Grade Magistrate Court has sentenced a 37 year old man, to 14 years Imprisonment with Hard Labour for defiling two minors aged 9 and 7 years old respectively.
State prosecutor Liston Sabola from Balaka Police told the Court that the man identifed as Elias Amosi committed the offence during the month of January 2021 at Phalula Trading Centre after giving each child K100 and a piece of meat on both occasions for them not to reveal the ordeal.
In court, Amosi pleaded not guilty to the charge of defilement contrary to section 138 of the Penal Code and this prompted the State to parade some witnesses who proved the case beyond reasonable doubt.
