A court sitting in Blantyre has convicted football fan Anthony Matupa for assaulting referee Mayamiko Kanjere after a Super League match between Mighty Mukuru Wanderers and Bangwe All Stars last Saturday.
The match which was played at Kamuzu Stadium in Blantyre, ended 2-0 in favour of the Lali Lubani side.
Matupa who is a Wanderers supporter is said to have assaulted the referee for flashing a second yellow card to Wanderers’ player Gaddie Chirwa which led to his suspension.
Matupa has since been remanded to Chichiri Prison pending sentencing which will be done on June 5, 2023.
