According to a family member, Chunga had a quarrel at a drinking joint with a suspect who is now in police custody. \u201cHe swore at him and the following morning Chunga was found dead outside his house with stabbed wounds,\u201d the family member said.<\/p>\n

\u201cCommunity members descended on the suspect and severely beat him before he admitted that he is the one who murdered Chunga,\u201d the family member added. On 16 November, 39-year-old man Malani Chirwa was found dead in a Tomato garden around Jenda and police are hunting for the murderers.<\/p>\n
