The matter was eventually reported to Banda-Nkwanta police, who promptly detained the culprit.
The victim was handed a police medical form and told to go to a hospital for treatment.
The 23-year-old entered a guilty plea in court. Charity Bemah claims that her husband does not take good care of her because of his lover’s presence.
The presiding judge, Edward Essel, recommended the suspect in his final ruling to resolve such concerns with her husband rather than the women he pursues.
