[Tanzania]Man commits suicide after killing wife in love tussle

POLICE in Biharamulo District are investigating an incident where a 60-year old man allegedly committed suicide by hanging himself on a tree branch using a sisal rope.

Kagera Regional Police Commander (RPC), Augustine Ollomi, named the deceased as William Bizilege, a resident of Bisibo Village in Biharamulo District.
He said two weeks ago, Bizilege went into hiding after killing his wife, identified as Ethonia William (36). “The suspect went into hiding and police were looking for him,” RPC Ollomi said, attributing the killing to jealousy.
Meanwhile, a resident of Kabwoba Village in Misenyi District on Tuesday appeared before the Bukoba Resident magistrate’s court charged with raping and impregnating his daughter, a Form Two student.
Prosecuting, State Attorney Emmanuel Mavere, told Bukoba Resident Magistrate, Samwel Maweda, that the accused who was identified as Mustapha Mugaiga (45), committed the offence sometime in June this year.
He alleged that the Form Two student (name withheld) of Kabwoba Secondary School in Misenyi District, has since been interdicted.
The accused pleaded “not guilty” to the charge.
State Attorney Mavere asked the court not to grant bail to the accused, because members of the community were angry and threatened to harm the accused if he returned to the village. Magistrate Maweda ordered the accused to be remanded in custody. He adjourned the case until December 5, this year.
