June 12, 2024 – The Zambia Police Service wishes to inform the public that today, we received a letter of complaint from Honourable Jay Banda, Member of Parliament for Petauke Constituency, regarding an alleged abduction incident. Honourable Banda had previously given a statement to the police regarding the events of May 25, 2024, in which he did not provide any details related to this alleged abduction.

dis-Honorable is accusing individuals and claiming Police should follow up.
You re excused because you are a riffraff .
You ought to walk into the police station. You lodge your matter and the police can now interact with you.
Zambia Observer is not the police and by the way ZO is giving Pfools like you free airspace.
ZP better watch this guy. He is not telling the truth. Once let out he will cause so much trouble and he will disappear. Are there two laws in Zambia? One for we the common people and one for the dishonourable of Zambia? His narrative keeps changing. According to some people he was found in a terrible state. The home affairs minister says he was not bruised. What are the doctors who saw him and treated him saying? This is why he police wanted him at a government hospital.
