A decomposing body of a 41 year old man has been discovered in a house in Solwezi’s Kimasala ward. A family member has identified the man as Denga Kaluba. The horrible discovery was made by the deceased’s sister after she perceived an odour around the family home.
The sister, Precious Kaluba, narrates that in the early hours of Tuesday the 17th of October, she went to the deceased’s door to ask him to help her find the source of the smell in the yard. Upon not hearing a response, she went ahead to look through his window where she saw him lying lifeless on the floor of the small room where he lived, which is semi-detached from the main family house.
The family says Denga Kaluba was last seen on Sunday this past week and everything appeared normal with his demeanour. Neighbors have described him as a calm and friendly person with everyone in the community.
Police arrived on the scene later in the morning and have since collected the body.
