A MAN of Nchelenge District has been arrested for having sex with a chicken which also died as a result of the act.
Patrick Lwanga, 21, of Kasumpa Village in Chief Kanyembo’s area was arrested on Thursday after his landlord allegedly found him having sex with a chicken on Wednesday.
Luapula Province Police Chief Malcolm Mulenga said yesterday that Lwanga was found by his landlord, Charles Mulenga, 52, at 21:00 hours in his room which is adjacent to the kitchen of the landlord’s house having sex with the chicken.
“The landlord heard noise coming from the kitchen where he keeps his chickens. Since the accused was accommodated in the room adjacent to the kitchen, the landlord peeped through the door and saw him in action,” Mr Mulenga said.
He said the landlord went to call his wife to witness and then knocked on the door but Lwanga did not open.
The landlord was then forced to use the back window to enter his tenant’s room.
Mr Mulenga said the chicken was found dead and blood was coming from the cloak while Lwanga was found naked.
The suspect was reported to police and will appear in court soon.
Meanwhile, a man picking mushrooms in the bush near Lupuma Dam in Fiyongoli area in Mansa found a skeleton of an unknown man.
The skeleton was found with a fibre tied around its neck to a tree wearing black trousers, a white shirt and blue sandals.
Mr Mulenga said police suspected the man could have died six months ago and could have been 40 years old.
