  6. The name chosaziwa is the cause of killing bcoz chosaziwa means something that doen’t know. So, the boy didn’t know that he will kill the man.

  7. It was self defense, the man was biting the boy and the boy was trying to rescue himself from the man thats why he took a brick and hit the man without knowing that he will die.
