Police institute investigations on HH after Matibini’s order

Share

 

Police have instituted investigations in a matter in which UPND leader Hakainde Hichilema is alleged to have issued disparaging and contemptuous remarks against speaker of the National Assembly Patrick Matibini.

Police Spokesperson Esther Katongo says the police launched the investigation after receiving the matter from Matibini.

Katongo said police will inform the nation once the investigations are concluded and that suitable action will be taken.

Matibini on June 13th referred the matter in which Mr. Hichilema is alleged to have issued disparaging and contemptuous remarks against him to the Police Inspector General for criminal investigations.

Katongo further issued threats that police will deal with any political player planning to cause ‘anarchy’ and boasted that police officers will not be looking at faces when dealing with offenders.

    HH is carrying a million cases.

    People advocating for his release, are Ignorant, and need help mentally.

    Thanks

    • @divide & rule It shouldn’t be abused let him defend himself. ! kings 1:52 And Solomon said, “If he will show himself a worthy man, not one of his hairs shall fall to the earth, but if wickedness is found in him, he shall die.”

    • @ Mr. Mushota and failed government

      Do you two members of Permanent Failure “intelligentsia” (lol) understand meaning of word “cadre”???
      Before spawning more 5tupidity, check either Oxford Dictionary or Black’s Dictionary.
      I can understand lack of knowledge by 1mbeciles like you, but Hon. Speaker ignorance of spoken and “legal” English its troublesome. Mind you, if you read Act No. 2, such lack of knowledge become evident.

    • My friend it’s not him abusing that, but your pf prosecutors, due to incompetence and lack of evidence.

      HH tiye tiye nabo paka bakaikulike kwati ni judas escariot.

    • The definition of a cadre is a group of people who can lead, organize and train
      within an organization.

    • How do you know that they dont have evidence.. is it not UPND you petition election without having evidence?? they end up debating what 14 days means!!

    • IN THE CONTEXT OF LAW, THIS COUNTRY MUST CHANGE FOR GOOD. HAVING MONEY SHOULDN’T MEAN HAVING A PASSPORT TO IMPUNITY. WELL, HE USED TO SING THAT THE LEGAL SYSTEM IN ZAMBIA IS COMPROMISED- NOW THAT IT IS ‘DECOMPROMISING’ ITSELF AND STARTING ON HIM. HIM AND HIS BLIND FOLLOWERS SHOULDN’T BE SURPRISED OF HOW EFFECTIVE THE LEGAL SYSTEM IS BECOMING NOW. THAT IS WHAT HE WAS INSULTING THEM FOR. “UMWAICE AIKATILE ICIINGO KWAKABA”. MEANING HE HAS TOUCHED THE CLAY-POT WHERE IT IS HOT. NO ONE WOULD KNOW THAT ICIINGA (CLAY-POT) IS HOT BECAUSE OF ITS BLACK COLOUR UNTIL YOU TRY TO LIFT IT ONLY TO DISCOVER IT HAS GOT LATENT (HIDDEN) METAL-MELTING TEMPERATURE. THAT IS THE ECL ASULILE- CIINGA.

  2. Before GBM joined our party, HH did not even know the Chi……. But when the Bemba man came into our party, our leader has been taught all sorts o bad things that have ended him in trouble.

    • HH STARTED INSULTS LONG BEFORE GBM JOINED YOU GUYS. HE USED TO INSULT SATA EVEN BEFORE HE BECAME PRESIDO. SATA’S AGE WAS HIS GREATEST SIN. THEN CAME RB,THEN SATA AGAIN, AND NOW IT’S ECL. BUT THE LAWS IN ECL’s GOVT SAYS YOU CAN’T CONTINUE. THERE HE IS- MUMA BOARDING SCHOOLS AYA FREE!

  3. Before GBM joined our party, HH did not even know the word Chi……. But when the Bemba man came into our party, our leader has been taught all sorts of bad things that have ended him in trouble.

  4. There is no case. The speaker is aware of this and want to fine address the wrong decision over the suspension of UPND MPs. The police will not be able to come with a reasonable charge against HH.
    If the police charge HH, then The speaker must appear before the court as a complainant. Strange it can be for the speaker to appear before the court.
    There is no law that bars the Speaker from appearing before the court but it has never happened.
    Probably , the Speaker differed with Doris Mwiinga over the matter. Knowing Doris , she would not accept the Speaker’s view.
    May the police seek guidance from the DPP and Attorney General. However, the DPP is very weak and the matter is a hard call.

    • Oxford Dictionary:
      Definition of cadre in English:

      2. A group of activists in a communist or other revolutionary organization. ‘he was an activist in the cadre’

    • Mmmmmh, mmmmh, mmmmmh, mummy, mummy, mummy, HH called me a cadre, mmmh, mmmh.. Speaker sobbing to his mum.

      Mum: you HH don’t call your friend cadre, see now he is crying.

      HH:but mum he surely got a big head like dad.

      Speaker: mmmhaa, mmmhaa, mmmmh.

      Mum: Okay baby stop crying, here is a sweet for you.

  5. may God curse where these chaps who are punishing HH..let all of them die foolish deaths..HH is a free man..release him..

  6. Police to investigate HH for some utterances while kaizer Zulu who assulted a police woman in front of a packed statia is jetting off with lungu to a useless inoguration blowing tax payers money which could rather be used to buy x ray equipents for our hospitals…..

    • Just adding to the list: Maizegate by Dora fimo fimo. She is walking scot free. Kambwili was dismissed for corruption allegations but he has not been charged or arrested. Zamtel has not been paying taxes all along but they were not foreclosed (like the Post). Justice is selective in the animal farm called Zambia. Excessive borrowing (Euro bond, IMF, China whatever Bank), double taxation of ordinary citizens for example toll fees, fuel tax the list goes on. Also the nonsense of having those *****s (service chiefs, ministers etc) gathering at the airport every time when the most ignorant president goes globe trotting or is returning is extremely annoying. All those people get paid to go and line up at the airport should not be getting government salaries for licking someone’s ass.

  7. Police are quick to investigates those in opposition but how many ruthless cadres have committed crimes but no investigation has been done. Zambia police is only there to protect those who belong to Pf, it is a shame how our country has become. God help our Country Zambia, The Country we have been proud of all along.

  8. If it walks like a Party Cadre, but denies it,
    And quacks like a Party Cadre, but he denies it,
    Then it is a Party Cadre in denial. Plain and simple.

  9. Useless police. How many cases are you going to open against opposition just to please your master? PF Cadres in police uniforms !!

  10. The so called Police have become stooges and puppets to be toyed with by anyone toeing the lines of the masquerades. What has happened to professionalism? Are you so dull that you cannot make your own decision based on your training? Dogs have really come to this country. No the country has gone to the dogs instead.

  11. The PF Police after receiving a complaint from a PF Cadre, Patrick Matibini have suddenly sprang to action. Its all about selective Applications of Law. Matibini was nominated by PF to be SPeaker of Parliament so he must be a Cadre aligned to PF. What is contemptuous about saying this? The truth hurts and Matibini should just stew in PF Cadreship. The Charge in Court will fall flat. HH is innocent and should unconditionally be set free. Its preposterous to suggest HH and his Workers without arms of War and Soldiers committed Treason. Where is the evidence and why did the State drop the Motorcade Charge if indeed HH committed Treason? These are Trumped Up Charges meant to keep HH in Prison. This is just persecution of HH thru Prosecution.

  12. Who is HH? Who has created enemies all over – he has called the President all sorts of names, the Judges, the Police, ECZ, no respect for the Litunga and now the Speaker not mentioning his moron MPs whom he controls right left even his followers (the Chirundu guy). If such kind of person can mistakenly be voted for as a republican president how many insults can he hurl at us.
