UPND allege that a Gassing Suspect believed to be President Lungu’s Nephew has been unconditionally freed

Share

UPND Secretary General Stephen Katuka has demanded that the Police clarify the release of Malon Banda and Given Phiri from Police Cells.

Mr Katuka said the UPND is concerned that the gassing suspects who were nabbed in Eastern Province have reportedly been released by the Police in Lusaka.

He said the Party has been reliably informed that Malon Banda Who was in the Ibex Hill Police cell was released unconditionally, with the inmates having been subtly told that he was being taken to Mukobeko prison by the police.

Mr. Katuka said Given Phiri, who claims to be Edgar Lungu’s nephew was also unconditionally released by the Police.

“Malon Banda and Given Phiri were arrested in Eastern Province a few weeks ago and were found with new fraudulently acquired UPND cards which were meant to be used to implicate the UPND in the gassing scheme. We wish to seek clarification from the police command under what terms the duo have been released”, said Mr. Katuka.

“What is amazing is that the police have not taken the duo to court. This is a serious indictment on the rule of law”, he added.

Police are yet to comment on the matter.

  3. This sounds serious if it’s true. It’s not one u can deal with by merely commenting on it to the media. It’s one where u commit yourself on paper by writing to the minister of home affairs with a copy to the police and seek clarification.

  4. It’s not a secret, from patterns of behaviour to utterances by senior P.F officials, ITS OBVIOUS P.F IS BEHIND THIS GASS!NG SAGA. From the Copperbelt, to Eastern, North Western to Lusaka provinces, ALL THE GASS!NG G00NS & G!MPS IN CUSTODY BELONG TO (PATRIOTIC GASSING FAILURES) -aka P.F!! Non have been from the opposition parties, as had these gasser’s been from the opposition especially U.P.N.D, the perpetrators would have by now been convicted long long ago & serving HEFTY LENGTHY SENTENCES.
    Manje’ apart from being involved in 48 mansions, Lusaka Forest scandal, Nyimba Forest fencing & Mukula, it appears J0n@s Chawama family are now implicated in Gassing.
    ONLY IN ZAMBIA, WHERE A V!S!ONLESS DRUNK RUNS THE FA!LED STATE!!

  6. The gassing plot is a plot that has spectacularly failed for PF.

    They wanted to have the finger of blame pointed at UPND , to distract our attention from the hardships in Zambia and to bury UPND once and for all.

    You must know that this gassing hoax by PF was only part 2 of the plan. Part 1 involved claims of an individual importing firearms and soliciting donations to overthrow lungu. PF were trying to link UPND to part 1 but because the part 2 gassing hoax backfired , they entered a nolli in part 1 case to avoid looking silly.

  9. Govt run by bakabova for the kabova’s
    Watch “Kitwe based Jerabo Kanama, threatens President Edgar” on YouTube

  10. Nkani izibika!
    People are just afraid to spill the beans! There is no way a country can be under attack and our leaders don’t know who the enemy is and then they want the nation to sleep over it using a Commission of Enquiry? Are we serious? It’s not only laughable but scandalous! The beauty is there is nothing hidden under the Sun!

  11. HH has nothing to sell to the electorates. HI talk about things that will motivate Zambians.

    Edgar, why are you tolerating this s@t@n1st whilst your name is being tarnished.

  12. If the PF gassing hoax went to plan and the public started blaming UPND , the other part of the PF plan of implicating UPND in the so called

    “solicting $1.6 million and importing arms”

    hoax was not going be a nolli , they were going to convict that guy and implicate UPND.

    Those 2 schemes if they went to plan was enough to bury UPND for good, no one would have had the power to do anything.
    Like how they buried the post newspaper even after an agreement payment plan was ready , as the post was a viable bussiness.

  13. Mr Katuta be serious with what you say, you are saying those guys were found with upnd membership cards meaning what.simple mathematics.Cheap politics.If today hh said he can not satnd who is capable to take over? as now no running mate. All the guys are puppets they cant even chalange hh cos they are afraid.
