A 22 year old Norton man has been arrested and remanded in police custody following allegations of committing bestiality with a goat.

Residents in Ward 28 in Norton were left stunned after a bizarre incident that happened on Saturday night when a 22 year old man was allegedly caught being intimate with a female goat.

When reporters arrived in the area, residents were angry over the alleged actions of the young man which they described as inhumane.

They called for stiffer penalties for offenders convicted of the immoral acts.

The owner of the goat, Mr David Mutunha said he had caught the 22 year old man identified as Mafios Chisare in the act with his goat after he heard sounds of distress coming from the animal.

Under section 74 of the Criminal Law Codification and Reform Act, Chapter 9:23, it is illegal for any person to engage in sexual activity with an animal.

Meanwhile, Police Spokesperson, Superintendent Andrew Phiri confirmed the arrest of Chisare and said the suspect is expected to appear in court this Monday.
