Man caught raping donkey

A 24-year-old man from Tsholotsho in Matabeleland North Province was caught pants down with a donkey by the owner in the dead of the night after he had heard the groaning and braying sound which was being made by the donkey.

B-Metro reports that when the owner of the donkey Clement Mathe went to the kraal to investigate, he could not believe his eyes when he saw Lungisani Chama busy quenching his desires on his donkey.

The puzzled Mathe later called his neighbours who came and witnessed the spectacle before they effected a citizen arrest on the sex manic Chama.

For the offence, he was brought before Tsholotsho resident provincial magistrate Carrington Karidzagundi charged with bestiality.

He did not waste the court's time when he quickly pleaded guilty.

He was sentenced to 12 months imprisonment of which six months of the sentence were suspended for five years on condition of good behaviour.

A remainder portion of six months was further suspended on condition that he completes 210 hours of community service at Mpande Primary School.

In passing the sentence, the magistrate took into consideration the fact that by having sex with a donkey, Chama acted against nature.

The court heard that Chama from Fumabatshena Line Sipepa went to Mathe's homestead in the same area at around midnight.
