A 40-year-old man, Mr Kelvin Kapambwe has confessed before court that it cuteness of her step daughter that forced him to sleep with her 10 times before he was caught red-handed.

“Your honour I was forced to sleep with my step-daughter 10 times because she looks more beautiful than my wife, Kapambwe told the court.

Facts before the court are that Ethel Banda 19, was impregnated by her step father after sleeping with him 10 times while her mother was in Lusaka and Copperbelt selling fish.

Her mother who fainted upon hearing the sad news of her daughter being impregnated by her step-father is still in intensive care at Mansa Central Hospital.

Mansa High Court Judge has sine handed Mr Kelvin Kapambwe a 40-year jail sentence with hard labour.
