A TWENTY-year-old man of Chiswaswa village in Chief Nkole Mfumu in Kasama District has shocked his neighbourhood after he was caught committing beastiality with a chicken.
Frazier Kasonde is alleged to have broken into the chicken run at night and committed the act with the chicken.
He was found pants down by the owner of the chicken identified as Penias Mutale, 26, also of Chiswaswa Village in Chief Nkole Mfumu’s area.
Mr Mutale told police that he found Kasonde in the act with his hen which had chicks and that the culprit admitted to having committing beastiality.
Mr Mutale said he had secured the door of his chicken run which had one hen and several chicks before going to sleep.
He was, however, woken up in the middle of the night by cluck sounds coming from the chicken coop.
When he went to investigate what was happening in the chicken run, he caught Kasonde red-handed with the chicken which later died.
Acting Northern Province Police chief Lewis Musonda confirmed the arrest of Kasonde who has since been charged with bestiality.
