Happy was dragged to court by his wife Pauline, who wanted the two to be divorced. Pauline said the two have been married for seven years but she has never enjoyed her marriage as she was kept like a slave. “He constantly beats me severely and sometimes he attacks me with knives and bottles. At times, he strips me and whips me with a belt. He has been threatening to kill me for a long time now. “I am now tired of reporting him to the police.
I don’t have strength to defend myself and this is why I have come to court so that you can help me,” Pauline said amidst some sobs.
When asked by Magistrate Harriet Mulenga whether he agreed to his wife’s proposal to end their marriage, Mwape confidently and in a poetic tone said, “Our marriage will never end, she is the woman at the centre of my heart.” He said he beats his wife because she insults him and has no respect for him. “She leaves home around 04:00 hours and comes back drunk at night.
I have to take care of our two children. I have nowhere to complain to. When I complained to my in-laws they threw urine at me and beat me. Anyway, the Bible says for better for worse,” he said causing the court to burst in murmurs. When the court consulted Pauline’s mother to find out what she thought of her daughter’s marriage, she said it had broken down with no hope of revival. Magistrate Harriet Mulenga adjourned the matter to the following day (Wednesday, August, 16, 2023) and ordered that Mwape be put in a holding cell for constantly beating his wife.
