GBM's wife batteredBy Times ReporterPATRIOTIC Front (PF) Kasama Central Member of Parliament Geoffrey Mwamba's wife Chama is admitted to MKP Hospital in Lusaka's Kabulonga area after she was allegedly battered by her spouse in a marital dispute. Police have since opened a docket against Mr Mwamba.When contacted, Mr Mwamba said he could not comment because he was busy in a business engagement. According to a medical report signed by a Doctor Lubaki dated September 5, 2010, Mrs Mwamba sustained a cut on her face, bruises on the left and right shoulders, and on the left eye.  The medical report states that she sustained soft tissue injury and her cousin, Charles Mwansa said the family would not allow Mr Mwamba, who is also PF chairperson for elections to visit his wife at the hospital. "Deep cut on her forehead and general body pains. Fists are alleged to have been used in the act. Beaten and assaulted by a known person," states the report on the Zambia Police form number 32, which bears the stamp for Woodlands Police Station. Police officers from the criminal investigations office at Woodlands Police Station recorded a statement from Mrs Mwamba from about 14:00 hours to 17:15 hours yesterday and she struggled to speak because of pain. Mr Mwansa, who accompanied the police to the hospital, said the family had decided that Mr Mwamba should face the law. During the fight, Mrs Mwamba was in the company of Reverend Edith Mutale. Mr Mwansa narrated that when Mr Mwamba started beating his wife, his grandmother Lister Mwansa attempted to separate them but she was overpowered. After the fight, he took her to the car and drove to Ibex Hill Hospital where she was allegedly beaten again before medical doctors and nursing staff separated them.  They arrived at Ibex Hospital around 14:30 hours where Mrs Mwamba's family resolved to seek a medical report at the University Teaching Hospital (UTH). "But because of the cut on the forehead, she was bleeding profusely and the doctors stitched her face and then she was taken to UTH. It was at that point that we decided to take the matter to the police," Mr Mwansa said.  He said Mr Mwamba would only see his wife after the court case was over. Mr Mwamba and his spouse have five children together and have been married for about 30 years.
