Governance Activist Isaac Mwanza says there is nothing sinister about UPND Leader Hakainde Hichilema and five others charged with treason being moved to Mukobeko Maximum Prison.

Mr. Mwanza says what should worry the nation is the fact that some reports are suggesting that the UPND Leader has been put in isolation at Mukobeko Maximum Prison.

Mr. Mwanza has explained to QTV News that Mukobeko Maximum Prison is not only for convicted criminals but that it is a gazetted prison and detention facility.

He furthermore explains that Kabwe Maximum Prison is not only for those who are detained or convicted of capital offences because murder is also a capital offence.

He says the State, in his view, is not restricted on where it can keep remandees provided the detention center is a gazetted facility and the State bring the accused before Court at the time the accused is to appear before Court.

Mr. Mwanza states that the State can even gazette a house, such as Mr. Hichilema’s own house, as a detention center and keep the detainee at such a facility.

He says there is nothing strange in his view for the State to keep the UPND Leader and co-accused in Kabwe at a gazetted facility based on the reasons above.

  1. There are pretty of vacant Presidential lodges KK kept in each province. HH deserves house arrest. Take him to Mfuwe national park.
    Mukobeko itself not sounding good, even though there is better air than Chimbokaila.

    • The country is so peace without this man on the streets. It’s true KK stayed at Mukobeko, what’s so special about ba HH. Is your HH a political prisoner or a Criminal?

    • What is of concern is the beating, why is HH being treated as if he was a convict? He is innocent until proved quilt and that will not happen. Please, stop mistreating that young man. I am not UPND, but since I am convinced that the charges are not worthy categorizing them as treason case, I believe HH deserves support of all well meaning Zambians

    • @Cattle Rustler chi nio:
      You mother fcking heap of sh.it! Put that NONS.ENSE in your mother’s big smelly and stale pus.sey!! ID.IOT!!

    • Just the name Mwaza is enough to inform us of your opinion on the matter. That is how divided this country has become.

    • Your evil d!ck-tator (Vodka) will soon be in a one man sell at Embassy park, whilst his evil soul burns in eternal fires of hell.

      HH will soon be free.

    • It is beyond me why LT has tolerated this “SMALL-D!C.Ked” pathetic ID.IOT calling itself @chilyata who thinks insults makes him a ‘MAN’. But hey, you know what they say about people (men) with SMALL WEE WEEs!

      LT, you can’t tell me you don’t see the FILTH this SON OF a MO.N.K-EY called @chilyata spills on this blog, near every single day, for you NOT to do something about it. What the h3ll is so special about the R.UBB.ISH that this SUNTWE/CHIMBWI-@CHILYATA s.h!ts on your site that you have allowed it to go on for so long? YET IF ANOTHER BLOGGER TRIES TO REPLY IN KIND, YOU THREATEN TO “BLACKLIST” AND BAN THEM FROM HERE.

      Getting tired of this GARBAGE!!!!!!!

  2. Where did the MMD government keep KK?
    Where did UNIP government keep Miyanda and the like?
    Where was captain solo kept?
    Educate the masses please.

    • CAPTAIN SOLO WAS SENTENCED FOR TREASON. HAS HH BEEN SENTENCED OR FOUND WANTING YET? WHERE ARE THE HUMAN RIGHTS GROUPS IN ZAMBIA? WHERE IS ANYONE TO REMIND THE PF OF THE GENEVA CONVENTION. WHAT WRONG HAS THIS MAN DONE AS THE COURT SO FAR HAS NOT HEARD OR RULED ON?

  3. Most dictatorial nations have moved on and don’t put political suspects in dungeons, but under house arrest, mmd, kk, miyanda, solo, that was then, this now.

    • HH is not a political prisoner but a dangerous criminal who was trying to kill ECL for losing another election. If anything the master minder is in his house while ba HH is languishing in Mukobeko.

    • @Hamubiki, what drug are you on? Ati HH was trying to kill ECL! I’ve seen men locked up in prison and end up becoming presidents. I have also seen men who were presidents end up in prison.

  4. UPND lack negotiating skills…It doesn’t pay to be arrogant and proud for wrong reasons..HH’S handlers can do a better job by quietly engaging the Government and they will lose nothing by doing that except that the Supreme Leader HH of the UPND will be out…

  5. Mwanza go to Mukobeko yourself if you like it. HH doesn’t deserve to be in Mukobeko when he is innocent. The only crime is to refuse to recognise Lungu who didn’t even win the elections. It is not fair. Lungu thinks that he is clever when not. He may be punishing HH today tomorrow God can decide to take his life. This is a borrowed life for everyone.HH is a child of God and not Lungu’s therefore he should leave HH alone. Miserable President.

    • Hh is paying for his sins. I hate his arrogance & boasting. Just because he is tired of losing elections doesnt mean he should behave as as a president because he is not abd ge may never be one. I hope he has now repented

  6. Muleumfwa ba fik.ala ba upndonkeys. Mukobeko is also gazetted to guest people like hh. Beating is normal by fellow remandees. Akafuma cabbage makandi yakwe. He is safe at mukobeko. That is the right place for him. Government machinery at work.

    • The insults are in thing because Mumbi and Bwalya have managed to divide the nation. And the gap is widening, to the benefit of people with pf suitable surnames like Mumbi Phiri

  7. UPND Supporters will not take bait and will not riot over this…! JUST WATCHING. government can provoke the supporters but they will not take Lungu’s bait. If HH is to hang – it is meant to be….. AMEN…!! He is human, he can take humiliation and harassment.

    UPND SUPPORTERS DO NOT FALL FOR THIS. DO NOT RIOT FOR LUNGU. DO NOT GIVE HIM A REASON TO CALL FOR FURTHER RIOTS…. IGNORE HIS ACTIONS YOU HEARD WHAT YOUR PARTY LEADER SAID. HE IS ALRIGHT

    • @Team Edgar:
      You are just a lump of faeces!! Leave HH alone – it is your AIDS infected president Edgar Lungu that will soon die of the cancer of the throat (oesophagus) which has gotten worse and NOT responding to treatment! That’s why Mulongoti was saying Lungu is always angry because of that illness.

  8. HH’s Lawyers are at liberty to submit to the Court and provide evidence that HH was beaten up by Prison or Police Officers just to consolidate their defense in Court. Then the Nation will assess the professional credibility of UPND’s Lawyers. Or else GBM will be cited for generating baseless political LIES.

  9. Team Edgar, you are a biggest fool who are misleading Edgar for doing wrong. Uli fimfi wechipuba we. Don’t even answer me.

  10. Mr Mwanza the point is. There are 2 Orders issued by Magistrates Mulumani and Simusamba. Mulumani ordered HH trasferred from Lilayi to Chimbokaila Remand Prison and allowed HH’s wife,lawyers and 5 others to visit HH. Simusamba later ordered that HH can be visited by anybody as long as visits are made during visiting hours. Is there a Court Order Transfererring HH to Mukobeko? Can a Remandee be transferred from one Remand Prison to another without any Notice and informing the Next of Kin and the Remandee’s Legal Advisers? This looks illegal. Why beat and torture a Political Prisoner? Why deny the Remandee Food,Water, medical care and visits by his wife? Elsewhere Mr Chato says HH is a Prisoner. HH is a Suspect and not a Prisoner or a Criminal. He is innocent until proven guilty in the…

    • You soynd very emoty in your head. Is that the best your brain can give you. Mutinta has always been taking food and water and even on the day hh was moved to the hang prison. If she was not told that her hh will be moved to maximum how did she fibd herseld there.? Stop lying. Can you please grow up fast ba upnd and stop acting lije kids. Engage the state with negotiating minds abd sound sober. If you prefer to be rude state will keep hh till the kingdom comes. They will set dec as hearing date.

  11. Instead of concentrating on improving the economy, there are busy arresting one another. What a finished country this one. no wonder the economy is in dowm ward trajectory, with fake inflation figures. what a shame. Both ruling and opposition parties, completely useless

  12. Oh Lord I’m singing for my supper…. Mwanza wako ni wako hare-brained activist feeding on toilet mice. Your thinking is dressed in Kumava ideology of ethnicity much like Professor Mwizenge Tembo

  13. Isaac go and read your consttuition of zambia then come back and comment.
    We forgive you anyway this time of jubilee.

  14. There is everything wrong. Govt spent money to transfer HH using an expensive means instead of buying medicines in hospitals, paying retirees. Do you not see how our economy gets affected?

  15. I have of late refrained myself to comment on most articles as the authors are either incompetent or clearly lack knowledge on the subject matter. Mwanza is a case in point. It is expected that when putting up a position he is supposed to buttress his opinion with some authorities. But anyway this is Zambia the mediocre country!

    • He is in the right place at the right time.What’s so special about him? There are thousands of criminal suspects locked up.let him face due process of the law. You only respect freedom when it’s denied to you.Presidential safety is of serious necessity. All the best old boy as you enjoy state hospitality at Mukobeko

  16. What is so special about Hichilema not receive a slap if he is resisting boma’s instructions? If boma says get up we go hh has to do just that without hesitation then he will have a lovely stay with officers. Doing the opposite will always attract some discipline for not cooperating.

  17. The quest through the provocation of UPND with the view of rising and creating mayem by incarcerating HH to justify declaration of a State Emergency is not happening. HH is not fighting to become President but for the rights of everyone before the law. Hang in there UPND and do not fall for the temptation. Let Pf self destruct. Evil deeds are never sustainable. HH is tough tested!!
