Ndola, Lusaka
A PASTOR of Ndola has been sentenced to 18 years’ imprisonment with hard labour for indecently assaulting a 17-year-old girlfriend who sought his guidance to resolve differences with her boyfriend.
Gillion Matebele, 26, of Kopaland, was found guilty and convicted of indecently assaulting the teenager for three consecutive days in a church building in Ndola in September last year.
In her testimony, the girl had testified that she had visited the pastor after a night out with her boyfriend and she was given a drink which made her dizzy and the following day she found herself naked.
Although Matebele denied committing the offence, Ndola High Court Judge Greenwell Malumani noted that there was nothing on evidence to show why the victim could choose to implicate him..https://enews.daily-mail.co.zm/welcome/home
