The Anti- Corruption Commission (ACC) has arrested an Assistant Social Welfare Officer in the Ministry of Community Development and Social Services–Lusaka for corrupt practices involving K1 500. 00
ACC Public Relations Manager Timothy Moono said Mr Stephen Mulongoti, aged 33, of Chilenje Township, was arrested and charged with two counts of Corrupt Practices by Public Officer contrary to Section 19(1) as read with Section 41 of the Anti-Corruption Act Number 3 of 2012 of the Laws of Zambia.
Particulars of the offence in the first count being that Mr. Mulongoti, on dates unknown but between 10th November 2016 and 17th November 2016, corruptly solicited for K750.00 from Mr. Moses Chikwanda Chitutu and his wife Rosemary Malubula.
Mr Mulongoti is also alleged to have received K750.00 cash gratification from Mr. Chitutu and his wife through Mr. Lapson Muyemba as an inducement or reward for him to prepare a Social Welfare Report required for the sentencing of their child, David Kaulu, a juvenile offender, in a matter where the said David Kaulu was jointly charged with Titus Muyemba and convicted for drug offences.
Mr Moono disclosed that in the second count Mr. Mulongoti, on dates unknown but between 10th November 2016 and 17th November 2016, corruptly solicited for K750.00 from Mr. Lapson Muyemba.
He said that Mr Mulongoti received K750.00 cash gratification from the said Mr. Muyemba as an inducement or reward for himself for him to prepare a Social Welfare Report required for the sentencing of his son, Titus Muyemba, a juvenile offender, in a matter where the said Titus Muyemba was jointly charged with David Kaulu and convicted for drug offences.
Mr Mulongoti has since been released on Bond and is soon scheduled to appear before court.
what about Kambwili when is he getting arrested
I also expected to hear the Kambwili story and not this thing. ACC going for low hanging fruit …
This useless ACC is wasting our tax on this trash while the big fish is left to enjoy their stolen wealth. On the copperbelt a PS stole ZMW1.6m in 2013 & ACC are doing a cover up. This PS paid this money to a nephew for a grader that’s never been supplied for over 3 years.
Acc officials can not get a cut from K1,500 that’s why the poor man has been arrested.
Mnnnnnmmmm ka K1.5m fye, even Kaiser is laughing off. Can you imagine how much those state House guys make between lunch meetings? 4 lunches = 4 envelopes a day x $1000 = $4000.
We know the system guys.
@Nostradamus
yes they laughing especially that this is president mulongoti`s relative,
This is ridicul0us. What about Lungu’s corrupt cabinet who have already started amassing illegal wealth, as reported by Lungu himself? Why don’t ACC go after bigger fish too? This is nothing but a publicity stunt meant to show that ACC is doing something. If ACC is serious about fighting corruption, they need to go after the big crooks in PF too, who are hauling in illegal monies into their bank accounts.
No theft is small. It starts with this small amounts, it becomes sweet, sweeter then you aim for the sky.
You are swiftly arresting small fish but big BUFFOONS like Chi Kambwili (CK) you even given them notice that we are looking into them!!
This is not news, The real culprits are in GRZ, parliament and at state house.
Very petty. Toothless ACC
I said it cowards acc,busy anouncing the arrest of the poor guy,while you leave real issues behind, kambwili’s issure is fading fast like a kamwala jeans.thats fake news ba acc.
We ll continue calling you corrupt pipo not until you prove your selves Innocent by following up serious issues like tht one for ck.without interfered by government official
Hyenas how go for already dead meat.
This organization has no shame. Honestly, they rush to arrest a poor citizen over trivial issues when criminals in Govt whose corrupt activities have resulted in the death and deprivation of many are freely moving about ready to commit more felonies.
Stu*p*id ACC. Go for the real thief Kambwili. What are you waiting for?MWAMONA INVEST is located in Francistown, Botswana. Company is working in General business business activities.
Simply ACC do not have a cell to fit the BIG MAN
