INVESTIGATIONS INTO ENOCK SIMFUKWE KASENGELE’S DEATH TAKES A NEW TWIST AS SUSPECT ALLEGES POLICE INVOLVEMENT
Sources close to the ongoing investigation into the murdèr of 22-year-old Enock Simfukwe Kasengele say authorities have been left puzzled once again following new allegations that emerged during interrogation.
One of the key suspects, prominent farmer and entrepreneur Maria Zaloumis popularly known as “The Zed Farmer” has reportedly accused police officers who were on duty of being involved in Kasengele’s death.
The claim has added a new layer of complexity to a case already steeped in controversy.
Zaloumis was arrested days after Kasengele’s death, which occurred under suspicious circumstances.
Zambia Police spokesperson Rae Hamoonga confirmed that Zaloumis, 40, is one of five suspects currently in custody.
The others include her husband, 34-year-old Nigerian-born farmer Nathaniel Barthram, and three farm workers: Gift Daka (23), Fortune Mutangeti (27), and Daniel Chilowa (40), all associated with Farm No. 5 in the Munyama area.
Kasengele died in the early hours of August 17, 2025, at Kabwe Central Hospital.
He had been taken there by police after being detained.
His arrest followed a complaint lodged by Zaloumis, who had alleged that Kasengele had been hired to attack her with acid.
However, a postmortem examination conducted on August 20 revealed that Kasengele died from a blunt force head injury, with medical findings citing a brain contusion.
As investigations continue, the allegation of police involvement by one of the suspects has sparked renewed scrutiny over the events leading to Kasengele’s death.

We must allow more investigations to happen.I even wonder the state the deceased was in when he strayed in Zed farmer’s property and what caused him to stray.Was he mentally well? Was he not already harmed before he reached the Zed farmer’s property? Who has this information? Was any dangerous weapon used or seen on the video that some people watched? We must let the police do their work.The time the deceased left his place and distance must be established.The police will do their work, they are good.

@Tyrol….How is this coming in the picture?
There is no wako ni wako my friend, it is even good to know if the late was drunk or not.Persons who get drunk too much often fall terribly to the extent of having head injuries.Who knows? The police could have received a suspect who could have fallen badly at unknown moment.Thats why I asked the status of the late man when he was straying and the distance he covered to reach Zed farmer’s property for what ever reason.Fast conclusions are not good.
Wako ni wako. I repeat, BO MULETA, wako ni wako. No need to justify your reasoning BO MULETA, WAKO NI WAKO.

Actually the deceased claimed he was contracted by Fatima from a bar to go harm Maria zaloumis…
Kubeja Badala, do you really believe that? Did you not hear how Fatima denied those accusations on a radio interview? Fatima is in Botswana boss.
But what is and where is that new twist? You news agencies have also become exactly like social media influencers.
