Lusaka - A Zambian High Court on Monday sentenced a Christian church pastor and his wife to death by hanging after finding them guilty of killing their domestic worker.

Judge Peter Chitenge convicted Felix Mulela and his wife Sharon Mulela of murdering Sara Soko, a maid, they dumped in the bush after killing her in 2000.

Mulela, who headed a charismatic Pentecostal church, reported to the police in 2000 that their worker had disappeared after stealing their household goods.

A post mortem of Soko's body, which was later discovered in a bush near the Mulela's house, showed that she had been killed in the house.
