Eleven officers from Livingstone City Council have been suspended for alleged fraudulent activities amounting to over six hundred million kwacha.
The scam involved a group of cashiers, stores and legal officers.
Local Government Permanent Secretary Christah Kalulu says the officers conspired in under receipting revenues collected mainly from charges for development of plots and change of ownership.
Ms. Kalulu noted that according to the preliminary audit findings for the period covering 2009 to June 2011 six hundred million kwacha was lost through fraudulent accounting.
She was speaking at the press briefing in Lusaka yesterday.

Name the thieves l am sure they are not from eastern or northern province but our own local kawalalaz
So Dras Neves & Acting DF were right. Its sad that the dirt clique influenced the entire work force to kick out the visionary town clerk. Squabbles took a worse turn even after the two managers left. Now who is suffering other than residents and workers
Bad seed left by FJT Kafupi is still germinating!!!!!!!!!!! Such chaps are detrimental to development!!!!
just before elections ? suppose they are taking one for the team
