Sentencing
During Shoba’s sentencing, acting Judge Stuart Wilson said there were no compelling reasons to deviate from the prescribed minimum sentence for murder. While reading his judgment, Judge Wilson said: “It is clear to me that Mr Shoba wanted to get rid of Miss Pule. She and the baby were an inconvenience to him”.
