Salima police spokesperson Gift Chitowe has confirmed of the development in an interview with the press and identified the woman as Maria Fanuel.

“In the course of fighting, the man overpowered his wife but the woman grabbed and pulled his private parts to the extent that he fainted,” said Chitowe.
Fanuel then called his brothers Majidu John, 30, and Juma Kazembe, 43, to carry Sumaili to a nearby bush where they hanged him on a tree as one way of erasing the evidence.
The body was found in the following morning near Chembe’s graveyard hence the arrest of the three.
