Residents of KAVU farming bloc in
Ndola rural have bemoaned the high numbers of abortion cases recorded in the
area in the last few months.
A resident of
Kavu Del-gracious Chanda says despite some women who are involved in
these inhuman activities have been harshly punished by the long arm of the law
others have continued to embrace abortion.
Mr. Chanda earlier said that
the farming bloc recorded a shocking case when young boys found a seven
months dead body of a baby in a rubbish pit covered in packets of the
opaque beer packets of shake-shake.
He said that the boys reported what
they had seeing in the rubbish to the elders who later notified the Police and
investigations were immediately instituted which led to the arrest of a
twenty-Eight year old woman of Zambia Compound a few meters away from the
farming bloc.
Mr. Chanda says the woman who
aborted the baby was identified as Mary Chola was taken to KAVU Health
Centre for medical examinations and the health personnel diagnosed her
that she has terminated a pregnancy of seven months.
He says Ms Chola is in Police
custody at Ndola Central Police pending to appear in court after she admitted
of doing the evil act.
Mr. Chanda has appealed to
organizations dealing in the welfare of women and other stakeholders to hold
sensitization and Education programmes about the dangers of abortion to young
women in Kavu to deter others of committing similar offenses
