Mr Daka said Kamunga was killed shortly after midnight on Thursday by his patient, identified as Rody Chipango, 27, who is also his grandson.
The patient’s mother, Anna Shayile, reported to the police that his son murdered her uncle, who is his grandfather, under the influence of a mental illness.
“Facts as given by the mother of the suspect are that in this month of September, her son suddenly developed a mental illness,” he said. “She took him for prayers but nothing changed.
Later on September 24, 2023, she took the suspect to the deceased, who was a witchdoctor, so that he could also help to treat him.”
Mr Daka said unfortunately, the illness violently erupted on the suspect and he hacked the grandfather to death using an axe. He said the suspect has been arrested but is very violent, hence he has been taken to Itezhi-Tezhi Hospital for a jab to calm him down.
