STATEMENT OF CONDEMNATION – WOMEN ARISE ZAMBIA FOUNDATION

We at Women Arise Zambia Foundation are deeply saddened and outraged by the story shared by Mr Remmy Kangwa regarding a young girl who was brutally defiled by a man named Kabinda, sentenced to 30 years in prison — only to be pardoned by the President after serving just over a year.

This decision is a direct slap in the face, to the survivor, her mother, and to all victims of sexual violence in Zambia. It undermines the justice system, weakens deterrence against such heinous crimes, and sends a dangerous message that the lives and dignity of our children can be disregarded.

The survivor’s life has been forever altered — she no longer attends school due to trauma, suffers from serious health challenges, and her mother struggles to provide even the most basic necessities. This family has been failed not once, but twice — first by the perpetrator, and now by a system that should have protected them.

We demand:

1. An immediate public explanation from the authorities on why this pardon was granted in a case of such gravity.

2. Stricter regulations on the exercise of presidential pardon powers in cases involving sexual violence and crimes against children.

3. Urgent intervention to provide psychological, medical, and educational support for this survivor.

We call on you sir your Excellency the president Mr Hakainde Hichilema, Vice President madam Mutale Nalumango, the Minister of Justice, the Minister of Community Development and Social Welfare, and all relevant agencies to visit this child and her mother, see the situation firsthand, and take immediate action.

Women Arise Zambia Foundation will continue to stand with this family and with all survivors of gender-based violence. We urge the public, civil society, churches, and the media to raise their voices against such injustice.

Let us be clear: A society that pardons those who harm its children is a society that has failed them.
We refuse to be silent💔.

LEARN SOMETHING ABOUT CERVICAL CANCER
==========================

The greater your number of sexual partners, and the greater your partner's number of sexual partners, the greater your chance of getting HPV.

HPV is a common infection that's passed through sexual contact. When exposed to HPV, the body's immune system typically prevents the virus from doing harm. In a small percentage of people, however, the virus survives for years. This contributes to the process that causes some cervical cells to become cancer cells.

You can reduce your risk of developing cervical cancer by having screening tests and receiving a vaccine that protects against HPV infection.

Police Investigate Allegations Made on Social Media

April 2, 2024 - The Zambia Police Service has taken an interest in a matter that was circulated on social media involving allegations of sexual assault.

According to the post on Facebook, an individual identified as Florence Solochi claims to be a victim of so**my.

Despite the seriousness of this allegation, the alleged victim has not formally lodged a complaint with the Police.

While we take all reports of criminal activity seriously, it is imperative that individuals come forward to provide formal statements and cooperate with authorities in order to properly investigate such matters.

Without a formal complaint, it is challenging for law enforcement to fully investigate and take appropriate action.

We today, April 2, 2024 did summon Florence Solochi for an interview in Kabwe which details we will be availed to the public once investigations have been concluded.

In the same vein we would like to encourage anyone who has been a victim of a crime to come forward and report the incident to the police.

Our priority is to ensure the safety and well-being of all members of our community, and we are committed to thoroughly investigating any allegations of criminal activity.
