POLICE URGED TO URGENTLY CURB RISING CRIMINAL ACTIVITIES BY JUNKIES
By Leah Ngoma
Socialist Party President Fred M’membe is concerned that there is a very serious problem of junkies attacking innocent citizens in different parts of the country with latest cases recorded in Mongu district of Western Province.
Dr. M’membe who is saddened by the delay to respond to the cries of Mongu residents by law enforcers says the brazen increase in the number of attacks of Mongu residents by junkies means that government and police must urgently pay a lot of attention to the matter.
He says the spate of junkie attacks in broad daylight has certainly alarmed Mongu residents adding that it is not only the count which is climbing recently but the brutality and violence quotient involved in each incident.
Dr. M’membe has since called on the police, church and other stakeholders to come together and come up with an effective approach towards combating this rising crime.
