A 26-year-old woman has d!ed after she was allegedly beaten to d3ath by her husband’s side chick in Kitwe, Zambia.
It was gathered that the incident happened on Tuesday, August 18, 2026 when the deceased, Vainess Kanyama, of Kapoto Township, went to confront the suspect, Christin Ntundwe, over an alleged affair with her husband.
The victim’s uncle, Derrick Bwalya, who confirmed the incident in an interview, said on the fateful day, he received a call that his niece was found lying unconscious near the market.
Mr Bwalya said he rushed to the scene and found a lot of people surrounding his niece.
“I found my niece bleeding from the nose and she was unresponsive and when I attempted to take her to the hospital, I was told that she had already d!ed,” he said.
Mr Bwalya said the matter was reported to the police.
He said the victim had been living with her husband in the same area when she decided to confront the suspect, who also lives in Kapoto.
Mr Bwalya said one of the daughters of the victim who was with her rushed home and informed the relatives after seeing her mother unconscious.
The family put the victim to rest on Friday following a post-mortem, which has revealed that she d!ed due to blood clots on both sides of the brain.
