UPND SAYS MURDER ALLEGATIONS AGAINST MARIA ZALOUMIS POLITICALLY MOTIVATED
By Joseph Kaputula
UPND Media Director Mark Simuuwe says concerns from some stakeholders and social media users that farmer Maria Zaloumis is being shielded by government from possible murder charges are politically motivated.
Maria Zaloumis, popularly known as “Zedfarmer” and daughter of Electoral Commission of Zamba-ECZ- Chairperson Mwangala Zaloumis is accused together with her partner Nathaniel Chinyeremi Barthram, of brutally torturing and beating 20-year-old Enock Simfukwe on their farm, leading to his death.
Speaking when he featured on the Friday edition of Let the People Talk program on Phoenix FM, Mr. Simuuwe says people should not expect the police to act at the speed of social media, emphasizing the necessity of conducting thorough investigations before drawing conclusions.
He has also questioned why some social media users have already assumed Ms. Zaloumis’s active involvement in the alleged murder, despite the lack of conclusive evidence.
Mr. Simuuwe has further stated that just because Ms. Zaloumis’s mother holds a significant position does not mean she should be subject to judgment based on social media speculation.

Ba Simuuwe and the Moribund UPND Media. Better to keep quiet on this issue.
What are you going to say if Maria Zaloumis is arrested tomorrow over the same issue? Are you still going to say it’s politically motivated?
Murder is a very difficult case to conceal. A person ‘s blood is involved…and people talk. If the Zed farmer was an accessory to murder, she will be brought to book. Even that Husband who is in Custody will squeak, and the master mind will be revealed. Watch the space.
So what the problem you nkuku.Lets all wait for conclusion of investigations.

I don’t have any problem.
All am saying is that a homicide is a serious issue. Simuuwe should for once shut up.
Those people arrested face their entire life in Prison.. destroyed families.
Even that Husband who has been arrested has his life, and family in Nigeria. Should he sacrifice his life for a V…..? Which will be some one else’s play ground in a few days time..
Among the cases which are easy to solve are homicides.
Those people in custody will squeak, and the case will be solved, very easily.
