DRAMA unfolded at Marakusi village when a serpent emerged at a funeral causing fear and panic, scattering mourners and the bereaved family.
Friends and relatives who had gathered at the home of the late Clement Lichiko to pay him their last respects when the uninvited intruder slithered into the crowd of mourners disrupting the funeral service.
The 6 feet black reptile emerged immediately after the preacher had completed the burial sermon from a bushy site behind the pulpit causing panic.
The incident sent the mourners scampering for their safety abandoning the reptile on the pulpit which later majestically rolled around the compound as they watched from a safe distance.
It took close to 30 minutes for the snake to miraculously vanish allowing a handful of mourners to return and hurriedly laid the deceased to rest.
It is alleged that reptile appeared on Wednesday night close to the casket and again vanished. Switch to Our Mobile Site |
