A court in Zambia on Tuesday ruled that two opposition lawmakers must face trial for honking their car horns in protest after former president Frederick Chiluba was cleared of corruption.
Jean Kapata and Mumbi Phiri of the main opposition Patriotic Front were arrested last August after taking part in a mass honking jam to protest Chiluba’s acquittal on charges he embezzled $500 000 in public funds.
Magistrate Charles Kafunda Chiluba found a “prima facie case has been established” against the duo who must now present their defence against charges of conduct likely to cause the breach of peace on July 19.
The acquittal of Chiluba, who led Zambia from 1991 to 2001, sparked dismay among opposition parties and anti-graft campaigners.
The former president still faces legal action in a separate matter stemming from a graft conviction in Britain, where a court in 2007 found him and former aides guilty of stealing nearly $50-million of state funds.

“Magistrate Charles Kafunda Chiluba found a “prima facie case has been established against the duo”
Magistrate Charles Kafunda Chiluba..? 😮 Hell no! what a circus!

Ati “Conduct likely to cause breach of peace” meanwhile MMD Cadres like Chalwe threaten violence at will and the I.G says its not a crime nomore, too much circus pa zed it is the real Africa 4sho.
You wonder where our justice system is heading to?:-w
And they still dont want to cage that gun brandishing minister Dr Solomon Musonda, i wonder where justice is now!
