The case in which four Kasama youths have been charged for assaulting Kasama District Administration Officer (DAO) Beauty Namukoko, has failed to take off in the Kasama Magistrate Court.
The case’s failure to take off was due to some supporters of the UPND being at the Court premises while clad in their political party regalia, a scenario which made the Court to adjourn the matter to February 3, 2022.
The four, who are facing charges of assault, criminal trespass and theft, remain remanded at Kasama’s Milima Correctional Facility.
Appearing before Principal Resident Magistrate, Osward Chibalo, on Monday, the accused quartet namely Andrew Sichimba, 27 of Mukulumpe Township, Boniface Kaonga, 30 of Musenga Township, Nathan Phiri, 23 of Amini village and Costen Kalimwengo 24 of Winberg suburb, pleaded not guilty. – Radio Mano.
