PF parliamentarians released after brief detention

Share

Patriotic Front Chilubi Member of Parliament, Mulenga Fube, and Independent parliamentarian Munir Zulu, were released after a brief detention at Lusaka Magistrate Police Post. Their detention followed their failure as sureties to produce fugitive former Presidential Political Advisor Kaizer Zulu before Lusaka Resident Magistrate Mutinta Mwenya.

Magistrate Mwenya imposed fines of 50,000 Kwacha each on Fube and Zulu for their inability to fulfill their pledge to produce Kaizer Zulu before the court. The two parliamentarians serve as sureties in a case where Kaizer Zulu faces charges of conversion of a motor vehicle, a violation of section 291 of the Penal Code Chapter 87 of the laws of Zambia.

The allegations state that between November 19, 2019, and March 25, 2022, in Lusaka, Kaizer Zulu unlawfully converted a Toyota Land Cruiser VX, Registration Number GRZ 759CL, valued at 955,000 Kwacha for his use. Despite being declared a fugitive, Kaizer Zulu has evaded trial since last year, with his sureties, Fube and Zulu, expressing optimism about bringing him before the court without success.

  1. Zambia has fallen from frying pan (PF) straight into the fire (UPND). 2026 is very far. Lord in heaven, show us your miracle. Send a saviour!

  2. Continue writing about me, yet you can’t articulate Cardinal issues such as how hh will deal with poor kwacha performance or his premature ejacuIation celebration on the debt restructure.

    As for me, I am safe and visit my family in ibex very frequently. The police know my whereabouts but even they don’t want to arrest me because they know this is a mere political witch hunt. They know hh is losing in 2026 and i will be back to sort out hh mess as advisor to my one and only president ecl

  3. Munir Zulu and Mulenga Fube are expendable MPs, used by ECL and fugitive Kaizar Zulu. That’s what being unprincipled imply. To clean shoes, to be detained on behalf of their pay masters and their cronies. Unfortunately the law is blind and will be in cells once Mr Lungu withdraws the K100000 surety, or be enslaved perpetually.

    • I still see my family in ibex and visit my offices. I even drink with the same police men hh has directed to arrest me. Tell me now who is the f00I between hh and I
