“Brief facts about their line of evidence is that a married Mozambican man had an affair with Constance Lungu and the man’s wife conspired with two men and collectively excuted the homicide ploy,” Mwale said.
The three suspects are said to be in Police custody at Zumbu waiting for court appearance.
Mwale reported that the body of the deceased had been buried in Luangwa District on July 23, 2023.
