Mucheleka and three others walk free as State enters nolle

Share

The state has entered a nolle prosequi in the case in which Patrick Mucheleka and three others stand charged with malicious damage to public property.

When the matter came up for continued trial in the Kasama Magistrate Court this morning,the state informed the court of its decision to discontinue the matter.

Patrick Mucheleka, Samuel Ngwira,Elias Mubanga and Kelvin Bwalya were arrested late last year during the Lukashya Parliamentary by-election for the offence of causing malicious damage to a type writer,printer and generator,a property of the Zambian Government.

The quartet who were initially charged with aggravated robbery and malicious damage had the aggravated robbery charged dropped.

They were represented by Mulambo Haimbe and Kamuwanga Phiri of Malambo and Company.

  1. welcome JUDGEMENT, WE WON LUKASHYA S NO NEED OF KEEPING THEM LOCKED UP , LET THEM REPENT AND JOIN PF , 2021 IS NO JOKE WE ARE WINNING BY LAND AND MUD SLIDE VICTORY TO COMPLETELY OBLITERATE UPND

  2. Under an HH and UPND Govt the abuse of Nolle Prosqui should come to an end. ZPS mustn’t arrest people 4 Political Reasons and in order to investigate. The Police should investigate first b4 arresting an accused. Under the PF Govt there is too much of Persecution thru Prosecution. Mucheleka and others were arrested 4 Political Reasons. From August 12,2021 on wards DPP must be reformed to minimises the abuse of Nolle Prosquis. Mucheleka and others were arrested and jailed 4 no apparent reason except to punish them with impunity.

  3. Best to let them go, after all they are losing elections anyway. That is a better punishment for them to continue wallowing in opposition for another 100 years. Hahaha

  4. “The quartet who were initially charged with aggravated robbery and malicious damage had the aggravated robbery charged dropped.”

    Whether you are in ruling party or opposition as Zambians such abuse of the Police should be condemned ..you can’t just dream up charges like this, its a shame the current PF officials never sweated as Old man Sata did.

  5. Hi fellow bloggers, I am thinking of writing my auto biography and I would like to get your input. Please comment below what you think about me or the fond memory you have of me.

    For example think of the amazing things that remind you of me. For example like when I saved a man’s life who was drowning in the kafue river after one of my boat parties. Or when I won the award for most handsome pupil during my secondary school

    Thanking you in advance.

    Please no negative insults. Be mature.

  6. The most classic adage regarding trolling is, “Don’t feed the trolls.” Trolls seek out emotional responses and find provocation amusing, so replying to them or attempting to debate them will only make them troll more. By ignoring a troll completely, they will likely become frustrated and go somewhere else on the internet.

    You should try your best not to take anything trolls say seriously. No matter how poorly they behave, remember these people spend countless unproductive hours trying to make people mad. They’re not worth your time of day.

  7. This is what is called Persecution by Prosecution. Mucheleka and others must sue the State for wrongfully arrest and detention. ZPS is being used by the State to punìsh the Opposition Activists. This abuse of the Courts must come to an end under an HH and UPND Govt. Right thinking Zambians cannot wait to vote 4 HH on August 12,2021.

  8. Shame on this corrupt thieving lawyer , lungu.

    Yet at midday this lungu shamelessly holds a Bible and dupes the masses with fake prayer……

    he is going to pay for all this……

  9. That’s was a joke,let the police do the same to CK’s case on his mwamoneni firm case of forgery. I think most of judiciary officials are SADISTS like their home affairs minister stephen kampyongo.
