Tanzanian actress Elizabeth ‘Lulu’ Michael has been discharged from jail in the wake of serving her jail sentence for killing her sweetheart.
Kenyan gospel vocalist Bahati had sooner or later admitted his huge pulverize on Lulu.
The bongo motion picture performing artist was condemned to two years in jail in November a year ago to cause the demise of observed Tanzanian performer Stephen Kanumba.
Lulu was discovered liable of executing Kanumba after she pushed him away after a contention over a telephone call she had gotten.
Kanumba slid and fell on the floor, hitting the back of his head. He died moments later.
The case dragged for five hears until last year when High Court Judge Sam Rumanyika sentenced Lulu to two years in prison for manslaughter.
Lulu had initially chosen not to appeal the sentence.
However her lawyers, with the permission of her family, eventually appealed the judgement and on Monday the Dar es Salaam High Court changed the sentence and allowed Lulu to serve the remaining term outside prison as community service.
“Lulu amebadilishiwa adhabu na ameachiwa juzi Jumamosi kati ya saa 2 hadi 3 asubuhi. Hii si kwamba ameachiwa huru, bali amebadilishiwa adhabu na atatumikia kifungo chake nje, kitaalamu tunaita community service” Lucas Mboje Tanzanian Prisons, spokesman confirmed.
