Arusha. Despite telling the court that he believed his wife was still alive and at home, Mr Elias Cravery has been convicted of murdering Ms Jovitha Elias and sentenced to death by hanging.

The High Court, Bukoba Sub-Registry, found that eyewitness and circumstantial evidence proved beyond reasonable doubt that Mr Cravery stabbed his wife to death.

The court ruled that after the incident, the accused left Rukole Village, Karagwe District, Kagera Region, and travelled to Kerebe Island, where he allegedly used the name Frank instead of his real name, Mr Elias Cravery, in an attempt to conceal his identity.
