Court jails  Gomani for motor vehicle theft from murder victim Lucy Kadzamira

Lilongwe principal resident magistrate Viva Nyimba on Wednesday sentenced Arafat Gomani, 22,  to seven years imprisonment for stealing a motor vehicle from a deceased Lucy Kadzamira – first Malawian registered nurse – whom he is also accused of killing.

Gomani was accused that on October 15  2020  at Area 47 in Lilongwe stole a motor vehicle registration Number DZ 4606 , Mazda Demio valued at K2, 500 000  belonging to Kadzamira.

He pleaded not guilty, but state prosecutor Cecilia Zangazanga paraded four  witnesses to testify on the case.

Nyimba said the prosecution proved its case beyond reasonable doubt and convicted Gomani.

He agreed with the prosecutors for custodial sentencing saying the case was too serious in nature and the owner of the vehicle lost life.

“I therefore commit you for custodial sentence  of 7 years ,” ruled Nyimba.

The convict is awaiting murder case at the High Court.

The idiot should rot in prison. The idiot instead of being thankful that he had a job decided to get rich by killing innocent respected women. Very sad.
I hope naye w die in prison Mathanyula.

That’s a starter up my friend. You can’t be killing innocent people for their own hard earned money. Go thee well

This guy should be jailed for life, or just hang him.
