Four Zambians have been arrested in Mozambique for offences of drug trafficking.
Zambia’s High Commissioner to Mozambique, Japhen Mwakalombe said out of the four, three have already been convicted and are serving their prison sentences in the Mozambican prisons.
Mr. Mwakalombe said two of the convicts are serving 16 year long prison sentences while one was sentenced to eight years imprisonment.
All the sentences are with hard labour.
Mr. Mwakalombe, who did not name the convicts, said the fourth Zambian is pending judgment.
He said the convict who is facing an eight year long sentence has since delivered a baby while in prison.
He explained that the High Commission is working hard to facilitate a prison transfer so that the convicts can serve and finish their terms in the Zambian prisons.
And Mr. Mwakalombe has disclosed that the Zambian High Commission in Mozambique is working hard to promote that country’s investment opportunities.
He said his office and Ministry of Tourism in Mozambique were also working together to increase the volumes of tourists visiting the two countries.
He said a number of measures have also been put in place to increase foreign direct investment into Zambia.
Zambia and Mozambique have for a long time enjoyed warm bilateral relations.

The 5th to be jailed is himself the ambassador to mozambique “japhen mwakalombe” for causing a bye election in chongwe and conniving with Pf AND MASEBO for appointment. No need of sending thise chaps to zambia let them rot in mozambique prisons after all mozambique prisons are even better than zambia’s
They are in diaspora (in mocambique)
MY HUMBLE APPEAL TO ALL ZAMBIANS IN DIASPORA IS, PLEASE, AT ALL COSTS AVOID INVOLVING YOURSELVES IN DRUG-DEALING/TAKING AND OTHER VICES. IT DOESN’T PAY TO BE A CRIMINAL. IT JUST ENDS ONE’S LIFE.
#12 ,all those zedians caught drug trafficking do not live in the diaspora.They come from Zed,Those in in the diaspora know how to make a living.
God Bless and thanks for your kind advice
90% of drug traffickers from zambia are women. i bet three out of the four are women.
Oh my God – what a very sad picture
hmm, i think the president should find time to visit them, because i clearly recall how he bitterly complained that RB was in China and he couldn’t visit the 2 women locked up for drug trafficking.
Human sardines…
Iliko bad but me ave been deported for saying the truth. Edgar u r not the first H.A Minister and u will not be the last.
Release them unconditionally
very sad image, quick money thru illeagal means like drugs, corruption stealing, etc does not pay at all, you will enjoy for a while but when time catches up with you will regrete for the rest of your life, from being like a king to a very useless person were even a begger’s life is better. zambians, stay away from such activities please!!! lets pray HARD so God can lead us in a right way always…
Ba mushota bapuba sana. Balemona kwati tatwaishiba efyo bachita kufyalo fyabene. Twalishiba mushitisha amta tiketi ya train pa under ground.
