The stiffer punishment by the supreme court ensures to keep sex predators away from the community to make the community safe, Phiri (2017) states that Non-governmental organizations and civil society groups in Zambia are backing a move to eliminate the possibility of bail for those accused of sex offences against children as bail allows alleged abusers to intimidate their accusers into not showing up in court, to traumatize the children further commit more crimes. Locking up offenders like him for good is an appropriate action as it will reduce the risk of recidivism.
In conclusion, defilement
ravages our communities. The crime that Daddly Fichite committed fits his
punishment. It is an unethical vice in all societies, it contradicts the law,
and it should be discouraged at all levels of the community, stiffly locking up
offenders will sure deter possible offenders and reduce the risk of defilers
from repeating the crime, all in an effort to make the community a better place
for everyone especially the young people.
