According to Mchinji police station public relations officer Inspector Lubrino Kaitano, the two got totally drunk and decided to return back but they ended up sleeping along the Mtukwa – Mozambique Earth Road around the same area as they failed to cycle home due to drunkenness.

“Following morning, passerby community members found them sleeping a thing which prompted them to wake the strangers up but surprisingly they discovered that Levison had already taken his last breathe,” said the Mchinji police PRO.

A postmortem was conducted at Mchinji District Hospital where it revealed that the death was due to hypoglycemia as secondary to excessive drinking on an empty stomach.
