Bullet grazes past Mundubile’s head, strikes wife’s trousers

NRPUP Presidential candidate Brian Mundubile has alleged that a bullet grazed past his head and struck his wife’s trousers during an incident at his residence last evening, following what he described as harassment by soldiers

Yesterday, both Mundubile and his running mate, Makebi Zulu, alleged that the NRPUP Presidential candidate had been picked up by the military and taken to an undisclosed location.

“Over 40 soldiers and other security personnel were present and brutalized President Mundubile and his wife as they lifted them and threw them into their vehicle,” Zulu alleged in a Facebook post.

In a public statement, Mundubile confirmed that he had been picked up by the military and was under interrogation over two videos posted on his Facebook page, in which he urged the Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ) to announce the election results, saying he and his team already knew the outcome based on their Parallel Vote Tabulation (PVT).

In a short video clip released yesterday, Mundubile is seen showing the side of his head where he alleges the bullet grazed him, with what appears to be gunpowder residue visible in a portion of his hair.

Mundubile further alleges that the bullet went on to strike his wife’s trousers after passing close to his head.

Images of Mundubile reportedly reuniting with his twin daughters have also emerged following the incident.

According to a brief account given in the video, the same bullet reportedly struck Tonse Alliance member Mutotwe Kafwaya before grazing through the couple.

The allegations have yet to be independently verified.
