Boy hangs himself

Chitipa district police spokesperson Gladwell Simwaka  said the incident occurred on Monday around after the boy had a quarrel with his mother.

He said a misunderstanding allegedly arose after the boy was advised to change his dirty clothes and put on clean ones when going to school.

“This did not go down well with him and he ended up hanging himself from the door frame of their boys’ quarter,” said Simwaka.

Postmortem results showed that death was due to suffocation secondary to strangulation, according to police

      1. its true the boy was told to put on another Kabudula but the boy insisted on putting a white one.

        the mother told him to change since the mother is sick and could not manage to wash clothes its when the boy was furious with is mum went back in the house and never returned, the mother did not check on him as she was bedridden
