A 33 year old man is to serve three months Imprisonment with Hard Labour for allegedly conducting himself in a manner likely to cause breach of peace says Nkhotakota Police
Constable Willie Dick a Deputy Public Relations Officer for Nkhotakota Police says the man has been handed the sentence at Nkhotakota First Grade Magistrate court when he was found guilty of applying for a job which would see him kill and hack human body parts.

The court heard state prosecutor Constable Cedrick Cosmas that on 4th March , 2015, Mrs Phroney Saidi received a phone call from unknown man requesting her to offer him any job and mentioned of killing people and bring human body parts to her for sell.
Immediately, Saidi reported the matter to police who arrested the man on 6th March, 2015 following a trick meeting with Saidi at Benga trading centre.
When taken to Benga police unit for questioning he admitted to have applied for the work but was quick to say he has never done this before. He further said he suggested doing this because of financial hiccups he is going through.
During Court seating at Nkhotakota First Grade Magistrate Court on 11th March, 2005 prayed for a meaningful punishment in order to cub this act forthwith.
The First Grade Magistrate Fred Juma Chilowetsa convicted and sentenced Samson Zamata to three months imprisonment with hard labor.
