Police have warned members of the public to desist from engaging in ‘jungle law’ by instituting mob justice on other civilians suspected to be thieves or practicing witchcraft.
Dr Jere cited cases where a Lusaka resident from John Laing Township was burnt to death on suspicion of stealing.
A mob burnt to death the man after he in the company of others, were found allegedly stealing from a retail shop.
In Chilubi, villagers took the law into their own hands after apprehending a 70-year old man who they tied to a tree on suspicion that he was practicing witchcraft.
Dr Jere said the Police would not allow members of the public to continue instituting mob-justice on innocent victims.
“People should learn to respect the law and as Police we will not sit idle and watch while innocent lives are being lost on suspicion of practicing witchcraft or stealing. Are the same people, witchdoctors to start taking the law into their own hands? We need to engage in intense sensitisation on these matters,” he said.
He said people meddling with the law would face justice, as it was illegal to punish others without proof.
“Any suspect is innocent until proven guilty, so it is wrong for people to continue punishing others,” he said.
Why on earth the IG is appointed by the president is beyond me
Thanks
Mushota,,, from ukraine…hahahahahahah you are known to be a hoax mushota j mtonga!!!
Give it up, ndobo. You dont sound clever
Flag is not representative of a country you are, ask LT you are gullible it is no even funny
For your own information and your constant trolling, I am at work where my ip address all in SC comes up with that flag, when I am home with virgin-media It is a British flag.
I don’t often pay attention to you, because you spout more nonsense than sense. Count yourself lucky I even bothered to reply, to your incoherent brain.
How about asking someone with half a brain cell better than you, they are not too hard to find as long as you don’t look in your family?
My name is synonymous with class, I don’t reply to anyone because the majority are ignominious people, that is if you care to look in the mirror
Free lessons those, How about a thank…
That’s why my flag shows Britain when am not. Ba lt fix mine.
Ouch ndobo bakusoka ukuyumfwa ba guy lol
mushota… tell that to someone else… ukraine flag in scotland,,, it cant never!!! i know and you know that you are a hoax ,,, seeking attention! mushota is not `british`,,, she is `scottish`…
so you j.mtonga from ukranine are a man… stop pretending to mushota a woman… if you are gay its okay just come,, there will be people to help,,, instesd of you playing hide and seek in woman`s name!!!!
Any suspect is innocent until proven guilty, so it is wrong for people to continue punishing others,” he said.
If this Solomon Jere has any grey matter in him, he should have known that Rupiah Banda is equally innocent untill proven guilty. Why can’t this maggot also tell his boss UKWA CNP to allow RB move freely as an innocent person? Dull Solomon Jere indeed. These chaps will one day pay heavily for the things they are doing.
Koma mwabasapa ba 64 year old Ndobo ba Mushota! Nomba ichisungu! Im sure you wanted to say: they are not too hard to find as long as you look in your family.
Ndobo you are the only one that thinks flag means that’s where u are. It depends to ip address ubututu
Mwasebaneni po mukwai lol
chewe mushota….thanks for the `clever` advice
@ High Speed White Mama
Find your own name. Kanshi you love my name. Try a little originality. I know some people are not creative enough to come up with something unique, but copying someone else is really low,
@Mushota
So what flag shows up for people who are in the Ukraine (with a ukranian IP address)? A Ukraine flag, right?
I’m with Ndobo. Mushota is in the Ukraine, and like I’ve said before, Mushota is a troll who makes statements to upset everyone and then disappears.
The crap she posts! – her boyfriend, her relatives, her qualifications, her white this and that………. endless clap trap out of her stinky rear end.
Ndobo touched a sensitive spot there. Otherwise she never replies. Must be true!!
By the way, nothing wrong with being in the Ukraine, but I personally wouldn’t leave my home to go to the Ukraine.
@Slow Speed white mama
Here’s an alternative for you. A description of your diseased genitalia can function beautifully as a name for yourself.
I hate copy cats.
You don’t even know the origins of my handle – freak! Ifya kumwena ku menso filocha.
STOP. IMMEDIATELY.
“Any suspect is innocent until proven guilty in the court of law“ .. yes very true and thats what the law of the land says…
Please mr Jere apply to the same law to RB, give back his diplomatic passport and let him travel freely since he is innocent… until such a time when he is proven otherwise
The place is a jungle in recovery, what do you expect from it’s citizens?
The 3 Mailoni brothers, the 2 farmers, Jere also killed 2 robbers in Lusaka three months ago, all deserved a trial.
Mr jere or prison,which law are you taking about,when u hav failed 2 arrest those broking court order.
When a govt behaves like its living under armophous jungle laws by disobeying court orders then what follows is mob justice amongst the citizenry bcoz GRZ is making no effort to build credible institutions of governance.
mushota… tell that to someone else… ukraine flag in scotland,,, it cant never!!! i know and you know that you are a hoax ,,, seeking attention! mushota is not `british`,,, she is `scottish`…
so you j.mtonga from ukranine are a man… stop pretending to mushota a woman… if you are gay its okay just come,, there will be people to help,,, instesd of you playing hide and seek in woman`s name!!!!
@Ndobo, man leave Ukrainians, if you compared to Africans they can be “Congolese”. Wherever they go they call themselves Zambians, in fact Bemba. What is wrong with being in Ukraine, and why UK or Scotland better off? IP IP address so what… Ndobo concentrate on your usual funny but wise comments.
Surprising things are still coming Sata’s PF and Dr Jere PF police force’s way. Very soon.
When people lose trust in institutions like Judiciary and Police [being lead by useless PF people like Dr Jere (a fake satanist christian – u shall know them by their fruits – Dr Jere is a SALVAGE person who always use violence against innocent Zambians) and evil minded person in the name of Justice Chibesakunda], what really does Dr Jere expect Zambians do?
Zambians will be very violent not only during instant justice but even against the POLICE who are killing innocent Zambians from Sata’s order (so far Sata has never condemned the Kampasa – Chongwe Zambia National Service shootings of innocent landless Zambains.
Zambians will soon go the Egyptian way! REVOLUTION!
I will soon leave all and come back to my lovely country Zambia to participate in politics fully so that Sata and PF will go quicker.
Good idea go back to the jungle.
Police,why did u practice the same law on Mailoni brothers?Instead,U instituted mob justice or jungle law.U are not above civilians,we are all equal.
Any suspect is innocent until proven guilty, so it is wrong for people to continue punishing others,” he said.
I END HERE NOT COMMENT FURTHER
People lets improve our vocabulary, the English expressed on this forum is pathetic. Starting from 11:06:38 itself. Anyway it shows the calibre of the zambian leadership and cabinet really mediorce.
Just goes to show that the Police cannot be trusted and if the government in the the fore front of disobeying the courts and the laws of the land, what do you expect of the citizens. First Ask Ukwa, Mmembe and Nchito to stop taking the law into their own hand and think our courts are to be ignored with impunity
Mr or is it Dr Jere? So you know about these things, things like ‘law’, ‘constitution’, ‘justice’?? One law for the rest of us, another law for PF cadres …..
Solomon is right. The malice, ignorance integrated by superstitions make our society at times to be gullible. How can you listen to what an ignoramus of a witchdoctor tells you an then start murdering innocent people. Do some of these fellows know that a high percentage of elderly people suffer from dementia due to various factors including Alzeimerrhs?.
Dr Jere, thats what happens when the law enforcers do not do their job but nstead decide to politic. YOU ARE TO BLAME FOR SUCH BEHAVIOR AND I SEE IT INCREASING IF YOU DONT NOT CHANGE AND START DOING WHAT YOU ARE PAID FOR.
Dr Jere, when citizens call for you in the middle of the night, you always claim to have no transport. Meanwhile the thieves would be on rampage without any fear. Sometimes you even say ati Boma yagona. If your chaps cant give an excuse, they will make sure they arrive at the crime scene long after the robbers are gone, just to be safe. Citizens please continue meting out instant justice to those caught red handed. Jere and his cadre police officers wont help you at all.
Thanks
Indeed people should not take the law in their own hands on “suspicion” that someone has contravened the law when he actually has. However, does the law allow law-enforcers to harass, maim and even kill people on suspicion that the vehicle they were riding on was facing the direction of the venue of a meeting that politicians did not want to take place?, Dr Jere was personally commanding the police who were on this operation which happened at the junction of the Limulunga and Airport roads on January 14th 2011 in Mungu. Are the police allowed by the law to institute instant justice before the suspects are tried by the courts of law? Dr Jere is the last person who should talk about this.
Mushota mwakamba lelo, thought that was too hash for your Ndobo bro. Even you Ndobo why so bothered bout ids just enjoy blogging and contribute positively.
This I.D.I.O.T calling itself ‘Slow Speed white mama’ has really annoyed me. You have the personality of a rat and the intelligence of a cockroach. Get your own fcuking handle. Bet you don’t know what a handle is – look it up.
Alternatively just use your own fcuking real name. Trust me, we still won’t know who you are!!
GET YOUR OWN FCUKING NAME!

Identity thief!
Stupi d useless Zambians, Zambia is very safe without you guys in diaspora. One may expect to hear sensible and useful advice from you but you turn out to be complete idi ots. You claim to have Masters, PHD,s to name but a few, but look at what you are debating on, ID,s , grammar, punctuations, and so on. Anyway let me not blame you but the one who introduced distant education because your brothers, friends and other relatives were doing the work for you and this is the implication for that action.
What is this International Criminal Court (ICC) suspect talking about? Together with the worst IG Zambia has ever produced Jere is plain incompetent to tell us what we should or should not do. Unless he reforms and works like a professional cop.
Ba High Speed Black Mama awe mukwai I won’t yake your advice kanongamukalete argument yenu mu court. Chachine I love the name but in this world you can never control another person. Abanenu abaishiba business na brand naming ba Cocacola balichita register ishina lyabo muma patents. Thanks
That’s funny. Shows how unexposed you are.
Dr. Jere, you are a good man inside. For how long have Zambians asked the Police Service to stop behaving like a political party and be a professional police service we tax payers want it to be. You are wise enough Dr Jere to know that few isolated instances of unprofessional conduct by the police service erodes people’s confidence – leading to lawlessness. Unfortunately people have realised that the police is selective in its conduct of fighting crime. Overpoliticisation and reluctant action to crimes reported by ordinary Zambians (no fuel etc) erodes confidence. JUST CHANGE ATTITUDE – SERVE ALL ZAMBIANS REGARDLESS OF SOCIAL AND PARTY AFFILIATION TO REDEEM THE ZAMBIA POLICE DENTED IMAGE.
