A Zambian appeals court has upheld a death penalty imposed on a woman of Ndola who burnt her former boyfriend with petrol resulting in his death a few days later after he ended their relationship, Zambia Daily Mail reported on 17 January 2023.
However, the Court has acquitted Mirriam Chilosha on another charge of arson for which she received a life imprisonment sentence.
Jeremiah Mbawa, a gym instructor, was murdered at Floriana Lodge in Solwezi in December 2019, by being set ablaze with petrol.
Chilosha, who was charged with murder in the first count and arson in the second, was angered after she discovered that Mr Mbawa, her former boyfriend, had engaged another woman.
