The court heard Mukonda on the fateful day was with a female friend but as they stopped to look for a taxi, six men approached them and started beating him while his friend was pushed to the other side of the road.

As they beat him and got his property, the men accused Mukonda of having spilled their beer.

In mitigation, the two convicts told the court that they both were fathers with a child each and that they remorseful for their actions.

However, in passing sentence Justice Mulenga said he had taken consideration of their mitigation, but that the offence committed was serious.
