THE Kitwe magistrate’s court has found guilty a 14-year -old boy of Kitwe’s Mukuba Natwange for sleeping with a pregnant she-goat.
The juvenile is facing one count of unnatural offence.
When the matter came up for plea before Kitwe senior resident magistrate Davis Mumba, the boy admitted the charge.
“I had sex with a goat but I did not know what came into my mind,” the boy said.
He admitted having sex with the goat on March 27, 2014.
Facts of the case showed that around 16:00 hours on the material day, the juvenile was seen dragging a she-goat into the bush.
The court heard that the man who saw the juvenile got suspicious and rushed to tell the owner of the she-goat as he knew him.
The court heard that the man led the owner of the goat to the bush where he had seen the boy dragging the goat and he was found there having sex with the pregnant animal.
The matter was later reported to Wusakile police were the boy was charged and arrested for the offence.
Mr Mumba adjourned the matter to April 17 awaiting a report from the social welfare.
