Churches at Leopards Hill are legal-LCC

Lusaka City Council has clarified that the plot outside Leopards hill grave site was specifically designed for churches.

Assistant Public Relations Officer Mulunda Habeenzu said there was nothing wrong with building churches on that plot because the place was meant for that purpose.

Mr. Habeenzu told ZANIS in an interview in Lusaka this week that the construction of a church or any structure only became illegal when built on the grave.

He was reacting to media reports that churches were being erected on the Leopards Hill grave site.

Meanwhile, Mr. Habeenzu said the Council has curtailed burials at Kasisi saying that the development was unacceptable.

Mr. Habeenzu noted that the land in question was not certified for burial purposes saying it was illegal.

He emphasised that people should stick to the already authorized burial sites to avoid such occurrences in future.
