STERIA MANDA: In the cooler

“This is a shocking incident. I will be extremely happy if the law enforcement agency shall book her of murder if the autopsy report will indicate that the baby died of post- natal injuries caused by this evil woman,” said Navicha who is also Thyolo Thava Constituency Member of Parliament.

Navicha said the it is extremely cruel to kill your own child in that manner taking into account the nine months period a woman carries a baby in her womb.

Reports indicate postmortem of the newly born baby will be conducted tomorrow to find the cause of the death
