The Dowa First Grade Magistrate Court has convicted and sentenced a 53 year-old woman to 18 months in jail with hard labour for being found in possession of cannabis sativa locally known as Chamba.
Presenting facts in court, police prosecutor Gerald Kwizombe said the woman Katelo Banda was coming from Kasungu going to Blantyre and she carried the Indian hemp in the back of her car.
She was arrested at Dowa turn off police roadblock after officers thoroughly searched the car.
“The woman was arrested for possessing Indian hemp which is contrary to section 4a as read with regulation 19 sub section 1 and 2 of Dangerous Drug Act,” said Kwizombe.
The Indian hemp was later taken to Chitedze Research Station for examination where it weighed 17 kilograms.
The woman pleaded guilty to the offence and prosecutor Kwizombe asked the court to give her a stiff sentence saying marijuana is sold to children and it destroys their lives.
In mitigation, the woman said that she has five children who look up to her.
Passing judgement, magistrate Imulani Phiri slapped the woman with 18 months in prison without option of fine.
Banda hails from Mwachande village, Traditional Authority Machinjiri in Blantyre.

Hello friends my name is Samuel Kamau I was one of those millions of people around the world suffering from HIV/AIDS and and i was healed through the help of DR Abumen I was diagnosed with HIV/AIDS in 2012, I had no hope and felt useless. All these negative feelings quickly suppressed my body immune system and my body started to deteriorate quickly with physical signs of rapid weight loss, my story began to change for good when i met DR Abumen through a woman’s testimony, he sent me an herbal medicine which i took for some days, after taking the medicine according to doctor’s instruction I went to the hospital to get my blood tested for HIV/AIDS. The doctors were amazed when my first blood test result came back negative. They asked me to go back again for another test, which I did and the result came back negative. The doctors could not believe still,To cut the story short, “DR ABUMEN HERBAL MEDICINE HEALED ME COMPLETELY WITHOUT A TRACE OF THE DEADLY HIV/AIDS VIRUS IN MY BLOOD” am so happy, am sharing this to the world to save some lives, believe me there is a cure, you can contact DR Abumen on his email address [email protected] and you can also call or whatsapp his number which is via +2347085071418.
