The High Court of Dar es Salaam has ordered the defendant Hamisi Luongo, accused of killing his wife and burning her body using a whole sack of charcoal, to undergo a mental health assessment.
Initially, before the court issued this order, the defendant opposed the prosecution’s request for the assessment, claiming he was not willing to undergo it because he is of sound mind and has no history of mental health problems.
He told the court that he was surprised to be charged with the murder of his wife, who he claimed is alive, although he did not disclose her whereabouts.

Judge Elizabeth Mkwizu issued the order on Wednesday, July 24, 2024, following a request from the defendant’s lawyer, Mohamed Majaliwa, which was supported by the prosecutors when the case was called for hearing.
Luongo, a resident of Gezaulole in Kigamboni, Dar es Salaam, is facing charges of murdering his wife Naomi Marijan, contrary to sections 196 and 197 of the Penal Code Act as amended in 2019, allegedly committing the offense on May 15, 2019.
When detained by the Police, he was accused of killing his wife, burning her body using a whole sack of charcoal, and then burying the ashes in a farm and planting a banana tree over the grave.
