PF Gov’t Now INVOLVES International Police (INTERPOL) To HUNT RB’s MOST WANTED Son, HENRY
THE noose is tightening on former President Rupiah Banda’s son Henry, following Inspector-General of Police Martin Malama’s disclosure that international law agencies have now been involved in bringing him to book, by all means possible.
“On that issue I can safely say Interpol and SARPCO (Southern African Regional Police Chiefs Cooperation) who are highly skilled, are now working hand in hand to bring the matter to a close. I think we will report some progress very soon, because Interpol and SARPCO are working together on it,” Dr Malama said.
In December, then Information Minister Given Lubinda advised Henry to stop running and hand himself to police because in Zambia, everybody is innocent until proven guilty by a court of law.
Henry’s name has been linked to RP Capital, the company that according to the Sebastian Zulu-led probe team, grossly undervalued Zamtel by stating that it was worth only about US$18 million when in fact the book value was more than US$80 million and the market value will be in excess of US$5 billion in two years’ time.
The probe team has recommended that the transaction reported to have been put together by Henry and outspoken Petauke member of Parliament Dora Siliya, be reversed and all top directors and senior managers be sacked.
Wafik Alshater, the LAPGreen chairman, was expected in the country on Wednesday night but he did not show up as he plans to hold top level meetings with either President Sata or Mr Zulu, to try to resolve the standoff but the minister of Justice has already said he is not interested in meeting him.
On Henry, Dr Malama said the attempt to bring him to answer charges will bring closure to the member of the former first family, so that he can clear his name.
The involvement of SARPCO and Interpol is a step up in the manhunt that has drawn local and international interest as President Sata fights corruption. President Sata has stated that the fight against corruption shall spare no friends and members of his Cabinet.

This whole family will be in chuks very soon. Personally, when I become presido and I realize I have a thieving family, first thing I will do is build a prison with a family room, DSTV, water dispenser, etc. But alas, I will be too busy with stealing and forget about such until the day Mutembo will send me a call out!

Now thats a costly move & all we’ll hear when they bring him to book is that he has been warned & cautioned after spending taxpayers money.
MCS must keep in mind that all of this money must yield +ve results to zambians’ expectations or else he will be probed also by the next president & accused of missapropriation of funds.
Arrest who ever is found guilty quickly & concentrate on developmental issues it will soon be a year since you took over govt ba PF. Wake up bane time is money & you are spending most of it on investigations. Cage them until they are proven innocent that way they shall even reveal their friends & more scandles quickly.

Henry has already indicated he is guilty, for how long are you going to run??? By the time you realise you need to face the law, you will be as broke as a mouse.
Freeze any asstes registered in his name, his local and offshore accounts as well as get in touch with his several girl friends, they have information.
Our investigative wings take too long, next thing we will hear Dora is on the run, how may times are you going to warn caution her???

I pity this chap, once cought no bail or bond. His trial will delay for 2 years. If he surrenders himself better, he might just be given a benefit of doubt and given bail.

Thank you ba malama! I said it before on this blog, that issue an international arrest warrant.
Too bad, the bandas will never be able to travel internationally again, thanks to their selfishness.
Wherevere they are now, they cant hide – they will be smoked out of their caves like Osama bin laden. These boys are going to kill their father – they are responsible for all the mess zambia is in. Let them face the law. No country in the modern world wants to be seen to be harbouring criminals – not even in Africa. If RB thinks it is still kaunda days where we used to harbour dictators like idi Amin, he should think again. Even gadaffi with all his wealth had no where to run and no one to harbour him.
As for Zuma who is defending his fellow thieves – he will certainly back down now. I mean does Zuma honestly want to be known globally as the president of a BRICS country defending plunderers – the bandas are surely in for it. If I were Thandiwe, I would spill the beans and become state witness if she wants to see her twins grow up.

More taxpayers money is being spent on chasing up issues that should not be top priority. Ba GRZ you have roads and other projects to complete, whats happening in that area? All we here is bandas this, zamtel that , can we see you delivering on your other campaign promises please.

If henry thinks that hes clever than the law, runing away will not help him.Truly people have no heart for others you cant destroy the company which feeds the poor, the need and the nation and go freely like that it is acualy a curse before God all the people who sold zamtel my prayer is let God begin to deal with them

MCS has instructed Mutembo Nchito to handle the case. I upload Mutmebo for not having any interest in meeting the bwana (chairman of Lap green). He has demonstrated that he is a man of integrity. I would urge MCS to emulate Mutembo as the findings in the inquiry report are very clear! The chairman is simply looking to entice MCS to avoid destroying Lap Green’s image. Unfortunately, it’s too late for that! Zamtel belongs to Zambia, there are no two ways about. GRZ please reimburse LAP Green what ever peanuts they paid Zambia, lock up chisus and hengry and all other rotten eggs involved. Let LAP green redeem what ever monies they will fall short with the chisus’s and henry’s and rotten eggs they paid to get Zamtel. To MCS, please keep up the good fight.
Chisusu, wanya wanya! Henry wanya wanya! Thandiwe, wanya wanya! Liato, wanya wanya! All other rotten eggs, time will catch up with you all. There’s nothing like forgiveness where pipos lives are at stake by selfish garbage such as these. Even God understands. This should be a good learning lesson to all selfish plunderers identified so far.
