Mwanamume mlemavu anakiri kumuua chokora kwa kujilinda

Joseph Ochieng, mwanamume mlemavu wa miaka 59, amekiri mahakamani kumuua kijana wa mitaani Desemba 5, 2025, barabarani Gaberone. Alisema alimtikia rungu baada ya kushambuliwa. Hakimu Geoffrey Onsaringo ameamuru azuiliwe hadi Aprili 29.

Joseph Ochieng alias Kamduru aliwasilishwa mahakamani mbele ya Hakimu Mwandamizi Geoffrey Onsaringo. Alikiri shtaka la mauaji yasiyo ya kukusudia kutoka tukio la usiku wa Desemba 5, 2025.

Ochieng alieleza kuwa alikuwa amelala kwenye kiti chake cha magurudumu wakati aliposhambuliwa. “Nilishtushwa usingizini na kichapo kichwani. Nilimwona kijana barobaro amesimama karibu nami ameshika rungu akijiandaa kunishambulia tena,” alisema. Alisema alimnyang’anya rungu na “kwa nguvu zangu zote nilimtandika rungu la kichwa akaanguka kwenye lami.”

Mhasibu alianguka na hakusimama tena. Ochieng alisema alishtuka na kukaa karibu na mwili hadi polisi wakampata na kumkamata. “Polisi wakiwa wanashika doria walipitia kwenye barabara hiyo kisha wakanipata nikilinda hiyo maiti,” aliongeza.

Alomba msamaha akisema, “Chokora huyo ndiye alinishambulia bila sababu lakini nilipojikinga dhidi ya shambulizi hilo matokeo yakawa ya kuhuzunisha.” Alisema amejifunza “hasira ni hasara” na akaomba fursa ya kubadilika. Kiongozi wa mashtaka aliomba ichukuliwe kosa la kwanza.

Hakimu Onsaringo aliamuru azuiliwe gerezani la Viwandani hadi Aprili 29, 2026, na afisa urekebishaji tabia amhoji na kutoa ripoti.
