During the confrontation, the accused took a small axe from the wardrobe and struck the complainant five times on the head.

The two continued to wrestle until the neighbours arrived on the scene. The accused then fled, prompting a chase that led to his eventual capture and a citizen’s arrest.

The complainant sustained deep cuts on her head as a result of the attack.

The court sentenced the accused to 9 years in prison, with 1 year suspended for 5 years. This means the accused will serve an effective 8-year sentence.
