These are the people Kambwili should be inviting for deliverance!
Yes along with those he initially invited!
No forensics, how on earth are they going to catch these heartless people?

You watch too many movies and discovery channel. Zambia is the real africa.
I doubt that there is even a semblance of forensic training at Lilayi. This is the reason why the ZP gathers information through beating a suspect into submission.
Lusaka Times, what is bulk chibuku beer? Is it a new brand of chibuku?
People who killed the innocent like this should be hanged and shown no mercy when caught
