One of the suspects, Victor Mukono, grabbed a beer belonging to Mpofu’s friend and began scolding him for showing off at the beer outlet.
Mukwende said during the brawl, the co-workers fled the scene leaving Mpofu being assaulted.
The following day at around 8am, one of Mpofu’s workmates discovered his lifeless body in the 20-metre-deep mine shaft.
Said Mukwende:
Mukono then demanded that the friend buy him beer and that’s when Mpofu intervened and the three suspects ganged up on him and began strangling and slapping him.
