In Zambia, the Kabwe High Court sentenced to death a 34-year-old polygamist of Mumbwa who strangled his second wife when she threatened to leave him for another man.
Best Haangala was in 2013 arrested for murdering Melinda Mulimbanyika, 22, while she was gathering firewood in the bush.
Kabwe High Court judge-in- charge Dominic Sichinga, when the matter came for judgement said  Haangala should be hanged by the neck until pronounced dead.
“I find that the prosecution has proved its case beyond reasonable doubt and I accordingly convict the accused of the offence of murder. May the good Lord have mercy on you and rest your soul in peace,” Mr Justice Sichinga said upon pronouncing the death sentence.
Haangala killed his wife after they differed on September 18, 2013 around 08:00 hours while she was gathering firewood.
