Sex workers kill man in Chikwawa

Maxwell Nsomera, a 24-year-old man from Chikwawa District, has been killed following a violent argument at a local resthouse with prostitutes.  

According to reports released by Chikwawa Police Station spokesperson Dickson Matemba, the incident has been taken up by police.

During the early hours of September 21, an intoxicated Nsomera and his companions visited Tiyamike Resthouse in Nchalo after drinking. Upon finding all the rooms occupied by sex workers and their clients, Nsomera allegedly began shouting at and disturbing the clients.

Angered by the disruption to their business, a group of sex workers confronted Nsomera and severely assaulted him until he lost consciousness.

Well-wishers rushed him to St. Matthews Hospital in Nchalo, where medical staff confirmed that he died from severe head injuries sustained during the beating.
