Namwala, July 10, 2008, -ZANIS-Police in Namwala have arrested four people in connection
with the alleged poisoning of a teacher three month ago.

The four have been arrested to help with investigations into what caused the death of
Hastings Munene aged 37 who was a teacher at Lubanaga Basic school and died on March 11, this year.

Before his death he was last seen in the company of the four drinking beer together at a named local bar.

District commissioner Ms Eunice Nawa confirmed the arrest of the quartet to ZANIS in Namwala today.

Ms. Nawa named some of the suspects as Lillian Mwango, a teacher at Lubanga Shabongwe
basic school and Epson Choongo, a bar owner.

The others are a security guard at the Lubanga School and another named man.

The arrests follows a postmortem conducted in Lusaka on the deceased whose results indicated that
the deceased was poisoned on the fateful day.

Mr. Munene’s body was later found near Namwala farmers training centre on the same day at around
13:00 hours and the body was then taken to Lusaka by Forensic officers for a postmortem.

  1. Some names are everywhere. Don’t how they manage to comment on every posting. They think they are know it all pals. Jack of all blogs I guess!

  2. Last time I checked, those picked up are just helping with investigations. No charges yet. Anyone can be picked up to help with investigations.

  3. #4 Do you have a problem with pipo managing to comment on every topic when they are not using your brain. GROW UP MUDALA

  4. I am amazed with people who think they know it all! Every topic they seem to know what to say. I think they use more of their hands than brains.

  5. #3 mambala iwe watch your mouth!you should be some backward tribalist!we don’t need shallow minds here pliz!discuss the topic.

  6. The problem with Tongas is that they think they are too backward because of mabisi. never vote for a tonga to be president. they make friends with fellow tongas. stupid

  7. Musatanyoko Cathy..uli mibwa…whatever ur tribe ndiwe imbwa wamvela…you are tribal and poor becoz of lazinesss…

  8. cathy u a whore..get ur head off ur stinky ass… tongas gat no time for retrogresive people like you …. if u applied to be wat ever ur tribe is to the devil then dats ur business aint everybody gona be the same , kuli asian , european name it. i think wat u need to do is travel the world a little bit….. cock sucker.

  9. Such killings happen everwhere in zambia but to sink so low as to link it to a tribe is pathetic.Cathy you need to think before you try to oput your ideas here.No single tribe in Zambia, Africa and the world over is immune of such actions.Dont pretend to be holly Cathy, your own tribe is one of them whatever their problem is may be its hooliganism,prostitution etc as for the Tongas you said its yogurt which makes them do so.

  10. cathy , just a lil advice from a tonga man , get alife. we known by our mabisi nigerians by their fufu , inga imwe by wise cathy wat u known of ? stealing! wat the f*** b***h u gat a career in stealing ? you need a role model.

  11. What nonsense is #3 talking about. What has this to do with Tongas, when it is something that occurs in every part of Zambia. Moreover the tribes of the quartet who committed the crime is not known. Please let us be reasonable and stop hatred of Tongas.

  12. Can you imagine this is Cathy’s relative
    ‘Police in Senanga have arrested a man who was caught with partially decomposed human body remains.

    ‘Fry Ndala of Kaungaluti in Senanga district was allegedly found with a skeleton of a named young man who passed away last year.

    It was suspected that the body was exhumed by the accused who is also a traditional healer.

    The skeleton from the heap born to the toes and the ribs were confiscated and buried by the police as the angry mob of villagers demanded justice.

    The mob claimed to have found the items behind the accused man’s house.

    And Ndala in an interview with ZANIS pleaded ignorance of the skeleton.’ (LT 10/07/08)

  13. Ala imwe vibatonga monse mapolo yanu. matako yanu.You like to dominate. even here on comments you want to be everywhere. By the way im Tonga from Mazabuka and living in UK but i dont support tonga behavior.you are too proud. be educated. the problem is you only talk to tongas. please wake up and socialise. stupid tonga bulls. again matako yanu

  14. i think cathy u have learnt ur lesson, just concentrate on ass wipin in uk, and leave the tongas alone,

  15. #4 and #7, you seem to have an inferiority complex. Why the negative judgment? What if those bloggers realy know what they are talking about?

    Be reminded that these are opinions and one can have an opinion on all news items. Infact I’ve seen your name a number of times already. Why complain about others?

  16. #12 Cathy, from your comment I see why Tongas shun you. You hate them and you are too proud for nothing. Whats backward about Mabisi? What then do you have to say about yogurt and yogi drink. You have just displayed hatred & ignorance. ‘Wouldn’t be surprised if you are a lonely person.

  17. #24, just saw the comment. Your facts are completely off. Responses to your foolish comments have come from pipo of different tribes. Also notice the names of bloggers and see whether tongas are dominant. I still don’t believe you are tonga. No sane person can insult all her tribesmen like that. That insult includes your parents, uncles etc. How foolish.

  18. #30 preach buddy tell this hater cathy ,its just evident how people hate for no course … our own mabisi to bring such contraversy ah tapapata pulize amutuleke…..

  19. freedom aint dissin other people and what they believe in, if u from uk todays mail had a very interesting heading… now this is real human value and dignity. what is wrong is wrong, no buts or if HOMOSEXUALITY is a sin period. issues people , debate real issues.

  20. No sane person living in the UK can comment at a case as that of the Namwala one. Those in the UK are faced with real crime…knives baba..Today the BBC reported ten stabbings in one day ka !!!.

  21. dude, home is were we belong wot bout the issue at hand of presidental, its ok for them abroad to comment , but the namwala one we bared , come on now we gat families in zambia this why we take time on blog patterning real issues, so yo argument bro carries no water…. safe

  23. Cathy you are not tonga but a stupid bemba masquerading as a tonga. We know you *****s come in all shapes. Stupid *****. Are u on your periods or what. Get tour father to lick your punany.

So you get what you ask for and thats tongas hiting back strongly. So continue and i can assure you insults will flOw o this topic. Watch the space. Iam armed to the teeth with a mouth full off insults

  30. Buju, what kind of a person are you. All you have in your mouth is to sleep with a woman. is that what you do. no wonder tongas are badly hit with AIDs and to get rid of it they dicide to sleep with babies as they belive they will be cleansed. watch out your dick will soon be eaten up by disease. foolish tonga man. do constructive things rather than eat mabisi as cathy puts it. you *****
