According to reports, the ugly incident occurred on April 7th, 2012 when Lulu was 19 years old while Kanumba was 28 years.
Steven Kanumba who was a popular Tanzanian actor died after Lulu
pushed him to the wall during an argument because of a call she
allegedly received from another man.
During the court hearing, Kanumba’s younger brother, Seth Bosco told the court that Lulu had an altercation with his brother on that fateful day. He explained that the two were quarreling because Lulu picked up a call from another man in the presence of the deceased.
Bosco further revealed that Lulu came out of the room and informed
her that Kanumba had fallen. The two called a doctor who declared
Kanumba dead after examining him
Esther Zephania, a detective who arrested Lulu on that fateful day,
told the court that walls of the room where the actor died had black
blood-like stains.
Lulu’s lawyer Peter Kibatala requested the court to pardon his
client arguing that she committed the crime when she was still young.
He further begged the court to forgive his client saying that she
is her family’s breadwinner. Kibatala asked the court to free his client
so that she could continue providing for her family.
The High Court, however, found Lulu guilty of unintentionally
killing Steven Kanumba. Kibatala vowed to challenge the ruling even as
Lulu was sent to prison to start serving the two-year term.
