Earlier, it was established in the court that Chitezi committed the offence August 12 last year shortly after mid night at Ulumi village.<\/p>\n

Given room to talk, he asked the court to forgive him, saying he was under alcoholic influence and did not know his action(s).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
