A sex worker of Lusaka has accused her married client of being responsible for her two months old pregnancy.
Esther Kalema sued George Mulenga in the Matero Local Court demanding K500 monthly maintenance of her pregnancy.
But Mulenga, 32, felt it was impossible for a prostitute to fall pregnant on her job and point at her client as the one responsible.
He said he met Kalema, a prostitute, at a night club and he paid her for the service.
Mulenga told Magistrate Harriet Mulenga that he did not have any relationship with Kalema apart from him being her client.
He said he had, however, engaged Kalema twice for her services which he paid for in full.
“Your honour, this woman here has never been my girlfriend. Yes, I slept with her at a fee, it was business. That is what she does. I just engaged her for the services as well. So how can she be pregnant for me?
