COURT CONVICTS FORMER LUMEZI MP MUNIR ZULU FOR SEDITIOUS PRACTICES
The Lusaka Magistrate Court has convicted former Lumezi Member of Parliament Munir Zulu for seditious practices, under Section 60 of the Penal Code, Chapter 87 of the Laws of Zambia.
The court found that Zulu, on September 6, 2023, posted a statement on social media claiming he had received credible information that President Hakainde Hichilema would dissolve Parliament and call early elections on September 8, 2023.
Prosecutors argued that Zulu’s remarks could incite public disorder and create disaffection against the government.
Magistrate Trevor Kasanda ruled that Zulu’s words carried a clear seditious intent and dismissed the defence’s argument that he was joking.
The court has adjourned the matter to Friday, May 2, 2025, for mitigation before sentencing.

He deserves it,this boy went too far and he should be given what he was asking for, look at him now all those who were praising him have gone into extinction and you have remained as an orphan
He better continue with high spirits at mwembeshi as reported and soon his friend the nkana degenerate in the august house should join him!!!!!
The demons he was listening to about HH dissolving parliament and calling early elections unfortunately could not take a witness stand for hm in court . That’s what follows when one’s mouth runs ahead of one’s brain. Now he is all alone. What a way to end one’s political career.
