A notorious Tsholotsho offender has been put behind bars for 78 Months for unlawful entry, escape, and assault
Bukhabo Sibanda, a 20-year-old from Tsholotsho, was arraigned before the Tsholotsho Magistrates’ Court after a string of crimes.
Allegations against him were that Sibongile Mguni, the complainant, attended a funeral on June 2, leaving her homestead in the care of her nine-year-old son.
Upon her return, she discovered that her 2in1 blanket and black amplifier had been stolen.
She tracked the stolen items to Sibanda’s residence, where she recovered them hidden in his bedroom.
A police report led to his arrest, but Sibanda escaped from custody twice before committing an assault offense, resulting in his re-arrest and subsequent sentencing to 78 months in prison.
