PrisonThe publicist said the lady thought it was her husband but as she woke up, she realsied it was not her husband.

It was at this time that the woman shouted for help.

Her husband then woke up and the rapist fled but it too late because they had noticed his face and known him.

The suspect, Patrick Kamoto was then arrested by officers from Nkhulambe Police Unit where he had apparently said he really raped the woman.

The victim was referred to Nkhulambe Health Center where it was confirmed that she had been raped.

Appearing before the Phalombe First Grade Magistrate Court, accused Patrick Kamoto of Mchenga village T/A Nkhulambe in Phalombe pleaded guilty to rape charges and was convicted.

    But how did he gain entry into the house?
    One sad thing is that most of the times these guys enter without chishangos resulting in spreading STDs to innocent people. if I were a judge I would have slapped him with 60years in prison without hard labour.
