Five months were suspended from three years on condition he
doesn’t commit such a crime.
Samson Gondwe (48) assaulted his wives on December 4, 2021
when the gold dealer who is popularly known as Sam Dread was drinking beer with
wives Precious Mushaikwa and Popadopoules Droder Mollin.
Gondwe ordered his wives to shake their buttocks in front
of men who were also drinking beer at the place but they refused. The accused
then threw stones at the wives hitting their heads and legs.
In Mitigation the Gondwe said he has four wives including
the complainants and 13 children under his care. Twelve of those are going to
school and he pays their fees. A custodial sentence would therefore affect them
negatively. He employs 60 workers at his mine and six at his farm who all
depend on him for income.
In passing sentence Matura said Gondwe he is a first
offender and he gave a guilty plea hence he did not waste the court’s time.
