Malunga\u2019s father told police the two suspects had earlier on approached his son with an intention of borrowing shoes but Malunga denied.<\/p>\n<p>This angered the two suspects who started assaulting Malunga and in the process, the boy sustained severe head injuries leading to severe bleeding after being hit with a big stone.<\/p>\n<p>Sergeant Kelvin Nyirenda, Public Relations Officer for Ndirande Police Station, said Malunga was rushed to Ndirande Health Center where he stayed until 18:00hours when his condition deteriorated and he eventually died.<\/p>\n<p>Post-mortem done at Chiradzulu District Hospital revealed that death was due to severe loss of blood as a result of head injuries. Soon after the incident, the two went on the run until on the 27 January when Ndirande Police detectives through intelligence gathering raided their hideout in Safarao area and arrested them.<\/p>\n<p>The suspects will appear in court soon for committal to the High Court.
