Bulaya's Lawyer Mumba Kapumba
Kashiwa Bulaya's Lawyer Mumba Kapumpa

JAILED former Ministry of Health permanent secretary, Kashiwa Bulaya, has filed a notice of appeal in the Supreme Court against his conviction by Lusaka High Court for corruption and abuse of authority of office.Bulaya has also applied for bail pending his appeal in the Supreme Court.

According to the notice of intention of appeal filed in the Supreme Court by his lawyer Mumba Kapumpa yesterday, Bulaya appealed to the Supreme Court against the upholding of his conviction by the High Court on December 26, 2008.

On the grounds of appeal, Bulaya argued that the High Court erred in law and fact by not fully dealing with the constitutional issue of a fair trial under Article 18 of the republican Constitution.

Bulaya said he raised this issue before the trial magistrate High Court deputy registrar, Edward Musona, and it formed part of the grounds for appeal to the High Court.

Bulaya said the High Court erred in law and fact when it found that he orchestrated the supply of Elixir 9 to the Ministry of Health and approved payment for it as a controlling officer.

He stated that the prosecution proved the case of abuse of authority of office when in fact he had left the public service when Elixir 9 was supplied to the Ministry of Health, signed for by other officials and not him.

Bulaya also argued that Supreme Court judge, Marvin Mwanamwambwa, who sat as High Court judge, erred in law and fact when he upheld the order of the trial court of seizure of properties under section 41(C) of the Anti-Corruption Act.

He said this was without due regard given to the evidence on record that the said properties were acquired long before he was alleged to have committed the offences for which he was charged.

Bulaya said further grounds of appeal would be furnished upon perusal of the appeal case record and judgment of the High Court.

He also applied for bail pending his appeal in the Supreme Court.

Bulaya said he was a former permanent secretary with fixed abode and definite family roots and responsibilities in Zambia.

He said this demanded that he had no intentions of leaving the court’s jurisdiction as his appeal was being processed if granted bail.

Bulaya said on January 2, 2009, he filed a notice of intention to appeal in the Supreme Court and preliminary grounds of appeal against his conviction.

“I am, therefore, applying for bail pending the hearing of my appeal on such terms and conditions which the court shall deem appropriate and I pledge to abide by them as I have done before,” Bulaya said.

He said he had continued to abide by conditions of the bail and that when the case started, he availed himself to the Task Force on Corruption and the court.

Last week, the Lusaka High Court upheld a five-year sentence slapped on Bulaya by the Magistrates Court for corruption and abuse of authority of his office.
Judge Mwanamwambwa dismissed Bulaya’s appeal when he sat as High Court judge.

“I uphold the conviction and this appeal has no merit. I also uphold the seizure of assets,” Justice Mwanamwambwa said.

He said corruption was an offence in the class of crime for financial gain and the rationale for forfeiture was to make the crime non-profitable.
“He (Bulaya) must go to jail now,” Mr Justice Mwanamwambwa said.

On January 27, 2007, Mr Musona jailed Bulaya for five years with hard labour on three counts of corruption and abuse of authority of office.

  4. Someone tell this scumbag that the in law in Africa does not apply when there is an instruction from up above.

    In this case I am in full support. Nishani jele yakosa batata? Kushipa just like you did when you were stealing.

    Jail is no place for big time Chalies bulaya :d

  6. Infected Meat get a life. Look at the crap you`ve posted! :d:d

    Now that is more than annoying! Get your infectiuos body out of here will ya?:-\”

  7. Somebody told me a story of a thief who broke into his house and stole his Stereo and on his way out he bumped into a bicycle that was on the floor and broke his leg. The thief decided to sue him for causing the injury. The question is who is the worse person: The thief that stole the stereo or the lawyer that represent this thief in the quest to sue somebody for causing the injury?

    I will leave it at that.

  11. Ooppss! Nambala 10 not 8.

    Pinkly morning! Just ignore some of these people. Some are new. Others are miserable infected meats! :d:d:d

  12. 3RqU

    How are you dear? ba infected meat ala bakanakafye! I was also against Nambala one but i found it interesting and joined in the fun.

  13. 3RQU Don’t judge me with your ignorance.My words can’t measure your intelligence. The scale won’t go that low.

    My name has you going see, You’re a person of rare intelligence. It’s rare when you show any. You’ll never use your mind, by stooping and resorting to coming up and number , in your case nos, 1 and 2 You can’t lose what you never had.

    3RQU You must be the arithmetic man; you add trouble, subtract pleasure, divide attention, and multiply ignorance.

  15. Can someone explain, how is Bulaya wanting bail, when he has been jailed. I thought you get bail prior to your being Jailed?

  16. I think the photo/caption used for the story is for Mr. Mumba Kapumpa.Ba LT clarify this picture for me…. Please. Am I wrong????

  17. Infected Meat I do not engage into personal attacks. Now that is sinking low.

    Either you put up with this nambala one thing or you pack it in simple.

    :d:d:d:d:d

  19. What i meant is why put the picture of mumba kapumpa the lawyer not Kashiwa the con-man. I have been wondering why kashiwa was not charged for a serious offence of genocide for importing traditional medicne that had not undergone clinical test and authontication. people surelylost lives for taking un proven medication that did not cure them.the rich get away with murder.

  20. 16. Ofccourse it is, as per written on the picture, thats his lawyer and as you have stated it is Mumba Kapumpa

  22. Ba Bulaya come on just accept the sentence.why are you pretending as if you are innocent,we all know what you did,now that LPM is not here to defend you any more just save the sentence.My advise to you is just keep the money you are using for appeals for future use or else you end up like chungu who failed to pay for his bail.

  26. The picture says it is his lawyer
    3RQU stop mentioning my name insanely in your case, i have no time for you.
    Seeing your comments I would ask how old you are, but I know you would struggle to count that high.

  29. Pinkly and 3RqU not forgeting Infected meat and all the Bloggers

    How are you guys? Elo nabuka ayini.Please dont attack each other you are all wonderfully made,eduacated and rich.for you to be able to blog on this site that tells me that no one is ignorant/poor.

    Good day guys.

  32. Bulaya has already started crying foul hardly a week after being jailed. He just have to get used to the that kind of life. He never thought about the poor ordinary Zambians when he was stealing those millions. Its a pity! some people dont like reaping what they sowed.Bulaya should understand that there is time for everything! e.g a time to sow and a time to reap!

  34. Please!! Could this man just do his time in Jail and not waste the courts time with all this crap! We should be attendin to more serious issues than still goin back to things that have already been resolved! Did he really think he would get away with what he was doin? Tough Luck!!

  35. ” THE Lusaka High Court has sentenced a 25-year-old man of Lusaka to 15 years imprisonment with hard labour for sexually assaulting a 15-year-old boy.” (as per daily mail)

    Does this sort of thing happen in Z i thought the casualties are mostly girls. I think its insanity and they out to give longer terms for people that do that. Although here in Uk cases like these people get away with 4 to 6 years easily. How wrong

  37. Bulaya is just wasting both his time and money. The same Mumba Kapumpa abandoned him for non-payment of legal fees. Can somebody advise Bulaya to go in and serve. I have no doubt the supreme court will uphold Judge Mwanamwambwa’s verdict.

    @7, I think some lawyers have no morals, they are just interested in money and this is one such case. This is tantamount to scamming somebody. It doesn’t differ from the Nigerian 419

    Bloggers on the other thread were complaining about Tourist Operators in Zambia overcharging. I think even legal fees are too high pa Zed. Too much stealing by lawyers, that’s why many young people are joining this profession;to make quick money.

  38. Pinkly he has probably seen the inside of jails and realised he is too smart to be there.

    Do you know he reminds me of Shaw Shank Redemption! Seen it Pinkly?

  39. 30 I would care less what your name is. Shows your judgement in getting a terror/Hacker name to represent you, I would be ashamed, to say the least. Do you still love nature….despite what it did to you?

  40. This human being Bulaya knows that the ruling in the supreme court will be made in 2010 a year from now. The ruling at the high court was made in december 2008 from smoewhere in 2007. The problem is our judicial system, they take too long to dispose cases, so Bulaya is just trying to buy time so that he will be jail for a shorter period of time. this the trend all the other thieves are following.

  46. Pinkly it`s about a young energetic lawyer who wrongly gets sent to prison for murdering his wife. In jail, the old timers were putting bets on who is going to be first to cry for being in such a place!

    This is what ba Bulaya is doing. “I don`t belong here”.

    I hope we get to see more of these people sent to prison. May be it will stop people from stealing. What is annoying Pinkly is, simple buyers in government thought they were more learned than most people.

  49. “Passport Petition Teleconference” Regarding this issue as can be seen from the ad just below the top stories; CAN somebody indicate to us the time in GMT. The time zone in USA is bit cumbersome not most of us are conversant with it.

  51. #39 Thanks. You obviously thought Infected Meat is a clever screen name! Genius!

    Atleast mine has a bit of humour attached to it!

  54. 3RQU stop mentioning my name, for God’s sake i know you are thick, you as though by being inconspicuous, sitting behind in an internet cafe, you are that far, i am probably your neighbour, you never had. Stay away from my name, are you having nightmares during the day?, of me.

    If you ever happen to get a life, stop by for a while. I will give you advice on how to run it !!

  56. Let the man appeal and enrich his lawyer.But should he lose the state should confiscate all estate,after all its illgotten.
    I have no pitty for his likes,he might as well rot in jail.
    Let us have our own “Guantanamo” somewhere on Chilubi island for these thieves.

  57. Pinkly

    Iam thinking of renewing my Driver’s license,so when am I receiving my motoka? :-j:-j:-j:-j.you can also send me:o):o):o):o)that is if that’s not too much for you.

  58. I will join the forum when the conversation level gets higher than this. I think I’m too bright to waste time on petty talk. Adios amigos.

  59. #54 Stop shouting there is no need.
    I rarely say this to people.

    1. How do you want me to answer when you ask me a question?

    2. Look at the posts above, you have been mention my name through out.

    3. Next time you want to sound clever make sure you work on your English as well. Now jog on son! :d

  60. Wish me Happy b day 3RQU 5th Jan 1986, you know how old iam yes 23 . Off to Tesco, if you need anything 3RQU

    For all i know 3RQU If you were twice as smart, you’d still be st.upid.!

  62. 3RQU are you leggaly here? lol

    Man i had enough of ya, stop questioning my intelligence, want to dive up, on my typo errors in my opinion of you? mmmh interesting your messages to Pinkly dont make sense either, i have you boiling ain it?

    3RQU i warned you to leave me in peace You must have been born on a highway cuz thats where most accidents happen

  63. Seriously stay out of me, and like i said dont judge me by your standards, for i will expose you. Later LT bloggers …PEACE

  64. #60

    Good luck and happy birthday son. Enjoy your weekend. You still have the whole world before you son.

    You know a lot but there is a lot to be learnt out there.:d

    At your age we all thought we knew more than the world does.

  66. Cheers 3RQU thats sounds a more grown up, attitude and with that I will respect you. Happy blogging i am off xx

  68. 3RqU

    I have seen that papa! May God bless him/her. I have no time for that, because at the end of it all, i wont gain anything.

  69. Pinkly

    Bravo,Bravo Bravo =d>=d>=d>=d>=d> I love the way you have dealt with the chap who attacked you.:-j:-j:-j:-j:o):o):o)

  71. ka kashiwa nikakabolala. he used to take brief-cases full of dollars to king fred and he married a young girl from kabulonga girls secondary school. let him be feasted upon by the prison sodomists. wafwa kapala.

  72. 3RqU,Pinkly and #66 imwe baiche do not use this website for playing games, u r a group of kurks!!!!. thumbs judge mwanamwambwa let the kurk die in jail.

  74. pinkly,3RqU,INFECTED NYAMA,muichindiki baiche,what are you upto, beefing on the blog,when you all aint gat the steak to beef for.Juvenile deliquency on LT
    sometimes I wonder why,some people can’t see what’s beyond the naked eye,Do we need to fortify techniques of communication for you guys.you have gone beyound what is considered to be,normal conversation,so I need some proper ‘ticipation,thats why am I giving what you need,we dont need bad weeds indeed that will help derail us from the topic,please thats what you end up contributing (nonsense) if you want to contribute on every topic.

  76. Ghost puppy, I dont condone, and i did not come here to incite what happened, least i say i am not proud of it. Exchanging and sparring words verbally is not something i want to associate myself with, but i suppose i was merely asking someone to blog as of opposed to coming up with statements like namabala …, which in my honest opinion, says a lot about the person that does it.
    That is my opinion and i did put myself in trouble, it appeared and was being punched in the corner, where i was merely trying to defend myself.

    Although i feel ashamed , when seriously provoked like comment 6, i am bound to react, i dont know about you…

  79. #76,yo dwag,i feel you,trustly ,I too hate the am number 1 nonsense,I mean we all know them that go for such,we just let them do their thing,cause we overstand them and you need a whip to help them stop.never mind them displaying there folly,roll on my ni**ga.

  80. I wish the Zambian Law had punitive provisions for time wasters like Bulaya who are not satisfied with the judgement from the lower court to the high court. In the English Premier League, an appeal that is thrown out carries additional penalties. I hope the supreme court can uphold the sentence and double it as well, a cool 10 years in jail with hard labour, to spice up things. A thief is a thief….

  81. INFECTED MEAT

    4865 to a dollar and 7064 to a pound.

    please be cool my dear fighting will not take you anywhere,you will just end up having enemies on this blog hence the exchanging of strong languege will never come to an end.you are a nice guy like Matworld. :-j:-j:-j:-j

  83. 79 Dog

    That was my whole point as well, nothing against 3R or who ever said it, i just thought i would make a point in restraining people from doing that, there are 2 current blogs i was the first one and i didnt do it, so to be questioned in that regard made me ……

    I am on 3 blogs at the moment and although LT is my fav, i just thought more meaningful, blogging would help us all, and not muddle about, i still feel the same.

    I ve blogged with name for almost 4 years in all the blogs, so to be attacked and called ‘nyama’ smelling meat etc, is probably the humour someoene begged of previously to my name.

    Ghost that flag where is that? isnt that a european flag? xcuse my ignorance

  84. Matworld i checked that it says to a pound £7 000 my gf said its unreliable ! as it takes long to be updated.

    I was told its £9k to a pound i dont trust my source though, considering the Pound has weakened to a Euro steadily and is just about 1:1. Saying that i dont know the effect on the Kwacha/Pound Kwacha/Dollar! unless someone is actually in Z

  87. Infected Meat, you will find us in China. Are you coming for studies of as a tourist?

    Kwacha is at K4170/4240 according to Zamnet and mealie meal prices reduced to K45 pin, that’s encouraging, much better

  91. #83 yea it is,am in the netherlands (in amsterdam),the swedish also are flagged under the same.I recall your ID as name, you are a veteran,I dont maintain the same ID either,I went from GDef,to concious,to dillagence to ghost dog now am trying to change into something again,I like losing my identity.you must be a nice person,hope to meet you.

  93. 87
    I am coming for a visit, my Inlaws live in Hainan. Coming just after the new year which end some time mid February. If not last week of feb , then beggining of April, depending to my time table at college, as wanting to come back before my last 2 exams in ACCA exams.

    Keep some Yuan, we could do with those 🙂

  94. 89, BULAYA, You have forgotten that I gave you $1.0M when you came to buy drugs from pharmaceutical – BUTICO A1 in Bulgaria? Just go in, when you come out in December 2013 another $1.0M awaits you..

  100. INFECTED MEAT, its true you are infected meat. Where are you from? can you introduce yourself before you infect everyone.You are provoking people why? We like doing nambala 1,2,etc,it feels nice to be # 1. You,you want to come with your own rules here.Behave yourself bakamba! You dont just come on this blogg ati infected meat,and start querraling no. Muichindike mwaunfwa!

  104. Zo ona abena infected & co. They want to spoil our little fun game. Some people have nothing to be happy about in life…they would rather pick a fight than have fun.

  107. Pinkly you are 103 sweety. Plus I should commend you for your mature reaction towards some negative comments against you. That’s the way. I like such girls.

  110. Pinkly,Nine Chale,3RqU,Girly.

    Mulinshimbi imwe.Haaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!Kuli annonymous ku first headline naena ni ziii. :-j:-j:-j:-j:-j

  115. Kashiwa Bulaya, can you just go to jail in peace please.You are paying for your actions.Those are the consequences of stealing. There are so many cases which the judges should handle and dispose off.So why do you want them to be wasting time on your case which they have concluded,with overwhelming evidence against you.Just serve your Five years.

  116. Pinkly just ignore them.

    I felt embarassed to find I was dealing with a young man.

    Nine Chale and all the other guys, I think I should have shown my age there. I am sorry.

    But hey never mind guys. Life goes on!
    Nambala shani nomba?

  118. Yes Pinkly, ala kale twayamba…so naine nshakaleke!

    Let them vex until their eyes turn red with rage! I will never allow anyone to muck up my self-nominated award as “Nambala one”.
    If anyone feely offended, tell LT. admins. But take my piece of advice: enjoy beauty where and when you can. Nothing lasts, not even anger!:)

  130. #128

  133. OK guys, I’m going to have lunch now. Maybe by there’ll be a new headline when I return. I’m sure Pinkly will ne nambala one again. That’s why I will let her write the Preface in my nwe book “How to be Nambala One”..he he he=))

  135. Bye Nine Chale

    I think am out of here as well. Matworld, Girlie, 3RqU , Chewe and the rest … take care :x:*.

    :o)signing off!

  138. but this man isn’t thinking properly,the supreme court judge fimofimo stood in as high court judge to uphold the sentence.what makes bulaya think that things will turn in his favour?as fo kampumpa,its more cash @ hand,anyway its plundered money so he doesn’t care but mulandu siuma bola.hope the supreme court will give 10yrs fo wasting pipo’s time.

  139. BULAYA, CRIMINAL AND CHILUBA, SHORT THIEF IN ZAMBIA. TELL HIM TO SHUTUP. THESE ARE HITCH MEN OF KAFUPI CHILUBA. KAFUPI SHOULD HAVE BEEN ARRESTED AND PUT IN MUKOBEKO PRISON BY NOW. WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  145. Is this blog dominated by undergraduates (in the diaspora)? Quite frankly, most of the posts are very basic, childish and shallow, except for a few serious minds like Maestro Heheehee.How can nambala one or nambala two or whatever add value to the debate – grow up you russian, china, usa based freshers or sophomers! We are tired of your crap. Go to other mental building blogs and you will see how empty most of you are. Atase!

  148. I agree no 145 I hardly blog because of the mentally handicapped people like 3RQu

    Wish LT can do something about it. Pinkly as well who is a man, his comments are astonishingly childish. Oh dear

  152. The law will always need to take its course.
    This will show people that are dubious that it does not pay to be crooked.
    The resources of the nation are not for those that have been priviledged to manage them, but for all Zambians.
    And nobody is above the law, the president, the minister the PS, the MP, the CEOs, workers, unemployed, street kids and all; we are all the same. No one has superior blood to the other. The blood that passes through the vains of the president is the same as that through the vains of the street kid and you and me.
    Therefore, the minister is not different from the street kid in the eyes of the Lord, and I pray this shall the same in the eyes of the Law.

  153. It’s time LT started sieving these posts and leave only fine material otherwise this blog will forever remain a forum for small minds which add no value to intellectual discourses.

  155. Guys, Pinkly was caught mukani ya chigololo a few weeks ago on this blog and thats how she changed her name from Baby C to Pinkly. This person is in her early twenties and most of the time she comes to play and make childish comments.

  157. #152 Fine, Impress upon the Task Force to visit Dr Simon Kamwendo Miti as well. That guy is a duplicitous character. Another guy who needs to be investigated seriously is george Chulumanda. He was recalled from Mozambique by the late LPM because he squandered money there. He used to take prostitutes in the name of duty for non-assignments to countries he was assigned. Even when he was at health, he used to boast how he never signed papers.

  159. #157 That guy was just a player i just dont know why LPM hired him……….anyway he is just like Teta ( Only more handsome !) Hey Pinkly whozzup!

  160. BIONET, I have never come across any Childish comments from China based bloggers. Ours are issue based. But I do agree with you to some extent.

  161. 156. 3RqU
    Hello my friend.
    Oh, I hope we can do so on many other articles.
    I will tell you one thing, I am not a rigged person, stack on one end.
    My views are independent of who they touch. I will never be in box, neither will I hold a fixed position when events are always dynamic.
    Neither will I condemn sone today just because yesterday I did; I will rather judge all based on their individual actions.
    In my view there is no one who deserves to be praised based who they are but what they have done. In the same way no one deserves to be blamed or criticised based on who they are but what they have done.
    Therefore, it would be amazing if we differed on everything.

  162. #153 LT is also run by small minded chaps,its practically impossible for them to do that,thats why they give awards for this nambala 1 thing.

  164. #157

    How do you all this stauff about Chilumanda???? But anyway, if thats the case, then definatly the law needs to vist him also. We need to do away with these so called leaders who have questionable characters. I cant wait for the day when we will have young intellectual minds running the govt. and not the crop of politicians we have now.

  165. #157
    The Task Force will always have a dented image as long as they continue carrying out selective prosecutions.Imagine,the MMD National Chairman Micheal Mabenge who syphoned constituency funds has been let off the hook simply because he`s in good boots with RB.It wouldn`t be surprising if the Task Force is ordered to go after RB`s #1 critic Muteteka.Unfortunately,this is the kind of circus and jungle law that we have in our poor nation.Some animals are more equal than others.

  169. #153 Bionet, I think it’s time you started getting some sense of humour, bro. Life is not all about being “big minded”, infact it’s the simple & seemingly meaningless things like “nambala one” that actually make life enjoyable.
    Haven’t mathematicians proved to you how a simple flap of a butterfly can cause a hurricane?
    As I have said before, there is a lot of other inane stuff going on here like character assassination, personal insults, even insulting the president & other leaders! Why then should LT be worried about our ordinary conversations???
    So no, we certainly won’t stop being “nambala one”. Too bad for your temper tantrum or your high blood pressure! Laughter is our medicine

  170. Number 168 better late then never. What is the problem nabo ba INFECTED MEAT. Just live your life. I do feel good when I am first to blog and Congratulate the first, when (like today I am number last.

  171. Please let this thief rot in jail or extend his sentence to 50 years in jail. He is wasting court’s time and must be punished for wasting court time when he is guilty.

  174. #153. Bionet
    I totally respect your view and I share it.
    But you see, these ‘numbera wanu’ people seem to be the majority on this blog and that is where the problem. They normally have no regard for the topics these articles carry, they just post whatever they feel, I emphasise ‘feel’. Normally they hate analysis of issues and the like to flow in their own world of feelings.
    May be what LT can do is to call people like ‘Dr Josee, bikiloni and difikkoti’ to help them choose some topics for these guys. May be this can help but I can guarantee because they dont even read these topics before they make their usual unchanging postings. So I dont think they will even identify their topics.

  176. Infected meat, just wrap up and quit waning. This thing about numbers’ been going on for a long time. They will sting your tiny butt! Don’t get involved.

  177. Fine,that is not true.We have regard for the topics here.But we start first by saying nambala nanikane.And then we digest the topic and discuss.

  178. Oh My Gosh
    This was some interesting reading

    Mmmmh i will unleash my thong later lol

    Destroyer sup man, I know the number stuff wont probably go again, its annoying, and i will always question such comments, and as far as i am concerened i am allowed in doing so, so long no one personally attacks me,

    Cowardly attacks on myself like the previously are bound to bounce back in one’face .. pEaCe

  183. This is just sad now. People can not come up with there own screen names.

    I am out until the regulars return.

    #181 That is cheap. But then again we have a lot of new comers on here today.

  185. A man suspected to be a Zambia native with a penchant for making up details of his life, Abraham Npaka is now wanted in the slaying of his girlfriend, North Miami Beach police say

    Abraham Npaka of Zambia, police say, claims many embellished or bogus roles: author, doctor, secret agent.

    One more is for real: murder suspect.

    North Miami Beach Police on Wednesday implored citizens to help find Npaka, 44, who is accused of stabbing his girlfriend to death last week.

    Coty Paul, 43, an unemployed security guard and mother of two, was killed the night of Dec. 26 in an apartment on the 2100 block of Northeast 167th Street.

    ”We need our entire community to help us in finding this cold-blooded m

  186. contd.
    Coty Paul and Npaka had been dating about one year. Both worked as guards for a security firm. He was her supervisor.

    With a thick African accent and cuts on his forehead that were supposedly tribal marks, Npaka had charm — and exotic allure.

    In a publishing house bio, Npaka claims to have obtained a bachelor’s degree in French at the University of Paris before pursuing a master’s in England. He also said he was pursuing a doctorate in the United States.

    Police say Npaka had actually come to Florida about five years ago on a student visa to study at Miami Dade College.

    Depending on who was listening, he claimed to speak three languages. ”I’ve had women say he claimed.

  187. All that culminated, police say, on Dec. 10 when Npaka walked into Aventura’s Colonial Bank. He handed a teller a note demanding $3,500 or he would use a grenade, according to a police report. After he escaped, an employee wrote down the tag number of his SUV. Npaka was later arrested and admitted he “needed the money and wired it to South Africa.”

    He was charged with armed robbery but was later bonded out — by Paul.

    On Christmas, Npaka ate dinner with Paul and her children. But the next day, Npaka attacked Paul while they were in the apartment of her best friend.

    The friend called police. Npaka escaped. Paul’s daughter, summoned from their downstairs apartment, applied pressure to her

  188. Paul died at the hospital.

    Npaka drives a gray 2002 Mazda Tribute with the Florida tag 233IJA. He is considered armed and dangerous, police say.

    Anyone with information can call North Miami Beach police at 305-948-2940 or Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305-471-8477.

  194. No. 152 Fine! Well stated. Interesting that Mr Kapumba seems to have a stranglehold on representing these shady characters. Nevertheless, the guilty man has a right to appeal and we should be grateful that we have a legal system that allows the appeal process to run its course. I hope that one day, poor people who at present cannot defend themselves appropriately will also have the opportunity to have legal representation to this extent irrespective of their lack of financial resources. It is highly regrettable that we may have to wait for some considerable time before we can fully achieve that due to the many priorities and challenges that currently face our young nation.

  195. Indeed, the man should just save his time now and stop crying for innocence that he does not have. I await the day Chiluba shall languish in jail too, ka satana kalya kalitumpa over over.

  196. Yes he must feel it. Why embezzle money meant for ARVs. Una paisa bantu. Wear the jail suit my dear.Good lesson to the would be offenders.
