THE Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) has arrested a 40-year-old man of Lusaka’s Matero township for corruption involving K1,500.
This is contained in a statement released in Lusaka yesterday by ACC public relations manager Timothy Moono.
Mr Moono said the suspect, Bright Mukuma, of house number 4705 B, is alleged to have committed the offence on unknown dates but between January 1, 2104 and February 16, 2014.
“Mukuma, a private person, jointly and acting together with Jusiyele Banda, a customer service assistant at Public Service Pensions Fund, and other persons unknown, corruptly solicited and received K1,500 cash gratification from Mervis Daka as an inducement or reward for having processed terminal benefits for her late husband.
“It is a matter of transaction concerning the Public Service Pensions Fund, a public body,” Mr Moono said.
Mr Moono said Mukuma appeared in the Lusaka Magistrate’s Court before resident magistrate Boniface Mwiinga on Thursday and was sentenced to 36 months imprisonment while his co-accused, Banda, was acquitted.
