 RESIDENTS of ZESCO Compound in Livingstone on Tuesday morning woke up to a rude shock after they discovered a naked woman suspected to be a witch who might have fallen amid a botched flight.

The woman who looked confused and unable to talk is reported to have crash-landed in the compound reportedly on a mission from Kalabo on Monday night.

Southern Province Commissioner of Police Bonny Kapeso has confirmed the development to the Daily Nation in Livingstone. Mr. Kapeso said that the victim had been identified as Lumayi Nasilele who is between 55 and 60 years.

He said that the victim is said to have left her clothes at the graveyard in Kalabo.

“Police say it was extremely difficult to interview her since she is still in a state of confusion and unable to talk,” he said.

Mr. Kapeso said that as soon as she is fully alive and responsive, she will be charged with conduct likely to cause breach of peace.

The incidence occurred on Monday night around 23:30 hours.
