The Zambia Police Service have finally charged Lusaka Lawyer Mr Keith Mukata and wife Charmine with murder.
Police Spokeswoman Mrs. Esther Katongo revealed this in a brief statement this morning.
Mrs. Katongo said that the duo was jointly charged yesterday adding that the docket has been submitted to National Prosecutions Authority.
She said that Mr. Mukata and his Wife are still in police custody, however Charmine fell ill and was taken to a private hospital where she is admitted.
I wish they consider the hard work as an MP he has done for his constituency.
Jailing him or his wife for me will bring suffering to those people.
I am sorry a life was lost.
I just don’t believe in an eye for an eye
two wrongs font make a right
Thanks

Mushota you have lost all credibility and I think you are not useful anymore on this blog. You might useful be in a Primary School playground in Scotland. Your lack of objectivity since you suddenly started supporting PF has blinded you to the point that you have become irrational. To be honest you are just wasting your time doing all this silly be-the-first-one-to blogger silliness. For you to say you now have a PhD just makes me angry. I feel like abandoning mine but then again you are not PhD material anyway, you just talk trash. HH should be hanged and the PF Mukata and his Wife business; no one should be prosecuted ‘after considering the hard work as an MP he has done for his constituency, even before any legal process. You make me sick!
Is your name meant to be analyser ? You might want to check the spelling
The other stuff you have said is your prerogative, and I have little time to respond to them.
My point remains that Mukata should be legally charged and the book thrown at him BUT lets consider he has a family and the people in his constituency who will suffer as a result of this.
TWO wrong do not make a right.
The law advocates for punishment but I don’t, I believe in rehabilitation.
That is my opinion as the seeker of Truth and Justice
I just completed my PhD .
Thanks

@ Analyaser, our advise to you and all fair minded people on LT is please stop responding to this pseudo name Mushota. Such elements are best left alone without responding to them.
Very sad development. But UPND supporters are rejoicing simply because Keith has always been better than HH and a threat.
In the mean time HH is spending this weekend behind bars – am sure he is enjoying free food and services by government.
Msuhota says, and I quote, “The law advocates for punishment but I don’t, I believe in rehabilitation.”
That is Mushota for you. Well Mushota, why don’t you Believe in the same statement when it comes to HH. Don’t you think he needs the rehabilitation you want to advocate for in this case?
Learn to have principles and be objective in your analysis of issues. You have a serious weakness of shifting goal posts depending on who is involved. If HH had committed that murder crime would you still have said that statement?
This clearly shows you are not standing on any ground, any way………..
PF please stop distributing guns.
MUSHOTA. WHILST LAMENTING ON THE PEOPLE OF HIS CONSTITUENCY. WHAT ABOUT THE SECURITY GUARDS FAMILY. HE WAS A BREAD WINNER AND YOU R BLOGGING NONESENSE. THERE IS A TIME TO IRRITATE READERS BUT A TIME TO BE HUMAN TOO.
A life for a life, bye Keith!
Sorry about that bro,so sad
He who kills of the sword, dies of the sword. All lives are equally important it be of a Lawyer/MP or an ordinary Security Guard
An unfortunate situation.Keith is likeable, that said we must have justice.
I feel for the Party. Misfortune after Misfortune. Could it be that they are reaping what they sowed when they had those people displaced and their properties burnt in the Southern region just after the elections? For God says I will hear the cry of the poor.Have those people cried to their God and he has Heard? May justice prevail.
New charges for awful reporting. Why can’t the reporter say who they are accused of murdering? Also why “finally”? When did this happen and has it really been so long?
The headline is just as bad. I read it as only the wife has been charged. Its only when I read the full story that I realised both had been charged. The headline should read “Keith Mukata and wife…”
Is there no independent body in Zambia to check on media standards? Yangu Tata!
So you see why this government is trying to pump sense in private media like The Post?
Anyways, HH is still behind bars.
no one is above the law,it doest matter what he has done for the party….
Cage this makaka he was busy mocking HH on his incaceration and having patlrtues with the enemy. This is life you don’t mock others when the are in trouble, welcome to reality.
Every case shall be decided on its merit. Whether it is treason or murder. No connection between HH, Keith and UPND. Nor anyone can accuse PF or UPND to have schemed to charge HH or Keith with capital offences. Mishap are part of human suffering….no one is exempt…..
In the last days, one must be on the side of GOD as anything can happen whether good o bad..
This is the right thing to do.nobody is above the law.moreover,ZP must stop giving half information about Keith Mukata.a criminal is a criminal.nobody forced Keith Mukata to kill that innocent guard,so Keith must be caged just like any other murderer!!!
BRAVO ZP!!!
Keith is a suspect not a criminal. At law he is innocent until proven guilty. Ba njimbu mwata study a little law for your safety. This world is evil
I wonder what would have been said if he was the only MP who boycotted the President’s appearance in Parliament. Someone would have been saying that it is the PF government persecuting him. It is clear that this government does not interfere with the police. Let the police prove their case in court and if he is found guilty, he can be pardoned.
Point if correction, keith is the only upnd mp who did not boycot.
Point of correction, keith is the only upnd mp who did not boycot.
Comment:I would rather direct my energies to postings that build our Nation not ignorant Mushota,s comment ati I have just finished my PHD announcing to who and for what you just forge papers like one of your cadre minister and screaming to the World to seek attention grow up people who are educated genuinely don’t even announce like you do dull cadre Mushota keep on cheating yourself.
let the due process of the law take its course .I don’t know it seems that the spirits are not happy over his betrayal to the party that adopted him which he ditched.if he is found guilty let the seat be declared vacant so that a new MP is elected and he goes to the party of his choice
This is the problem with those Zayellow coloured women that Mukata likes too much! They are KILLERS that should be avoided at all times. Another Zayellow woman killed her boyfriend, Greaves Malambo, recently in similar circumstances!!
Guys GO for the pure black Zambian women – they are classy, better and respectful unlike these silver diggers of the coloured women are who usually dont even know their true fathers!
First time I agree with you bwana
Wow, Chilyata. Unbelievable!! So based on your thinking if two women or two men, say from Chipata or from Choma, commit a crime then it means their entire demographic group are criminals, they must be avoided.
The classic definition of this kind of logic is prejudice, which is unreasonable feelings, opinions, or attitudes, especially of a hostile nature, regarding an ethnic, racial, social, or religious group.
I hope one day you’ll have chance to visit countries where the very people you’re hating against are the majority among people who identify themselves as black. And if you somehow faced an issue of discrimination you’ll see how they will fight for you as totally their own.
Ever heard of names like Frederick Douglass, Rosa Parks, Louis Farrakhan, Jesse Jackson, Malcom X,…
(continued)
… Ida B. Wells, William E. Du Bois, Madam C. J. Walker, Nat Turner, Thurgood Marshall, etc, etc. Just a few names who’ve made history, among millions of others in different parts of the world who lived to help overcome discrimination and prejudices which you’re promoting.
@special case inbred cretin chiyaya..so if you are saying all those things about coloureds then what do you have to say about the Tonga coloureds of Mazabuka and Kalomo? The likes of the Zaloumis family, the likes of Dante Saunders, Ms Kristafor etc those are your fellow UPND (United Dunderhead) Tongas you daft cretin that you are insulting very dull blood thirsty animal you arse.whore in your own words! I think chiyaya you must’ve been rejected by a coloured lady back in the day before you started shagging hairy arses like Human Hyena’s (HH) and GBV’s! Hopeless dull cretin!
Thats sad. Keith a life was lost, someone gotta pay for it. Uposheko it0le ilyo pa Chimbokaila
How is the wife involved when the story has always been him and the concubine.
Problem bafana batumbama makankala naka education, especially when you come from deprived family then wankala ka bread winner. Anyway, we lost upcoming leader. I think we should stop boycotting this parliament we will be dropping one by one.
When elected as MP it does not make anyone immune to prosecution whether the electorate like you so much or indeed not. Just as we sympathize with the accused we ought to extend the same to the dead and the family he has left on earth without any further support. Lets wait and allow for the due court process.
I would love to know what motivated this couple to murder a defenceless old man. Is it juju to hence their business or which?
IT ONLY TAKES ONE PERSON TO PULL THE TRIGGER, WHY PUNISH AN INNOCENT PERSON? CELLS ARE A GOOD THING U PEOPLE, STOP ARRESTING PEOPLE WITHOUT CAUSE
she thought she found money now shes in five star, women this is a lesson.
THIS SO CALLED MUSHOTA LADY MARRIED TO AN OLD WHITE MAN IN SO CALLED EUROPE SEEMS HAS NO TIME FOR HERSELF AND THE HUSBAND AS SHE IS ALWAYS JUST PASSING SILLY STUPID COMMENTS HERE DOES SHE HAVE NOTHING TO DO ESPECIALLY SAYING SHE IS STUDYING WONDER WHERE SHE FINDS TIME TO COMBINE ALL THIS WITH LUSAKA TIMES SEEMING TO BE TAKING HER TIME ……HOPELESS WOMAN WITHOUT PROPER HEAD JUST KEEP GIVING YOUR OLD MAN THE CORN ICE CREAM !!!!!!!!!
