Africa-Press – Zambia. The seizure of properties belonging to former First Lady Esther Lungu on mere suspicion that they are allegedly proceeds of crime without linking the said properties to any crime is political witch-hunt, vindictiveness and persecution targeted at the people from Eastern Province, the Kum’mawa Development Coalition (KDC) has charged.
On Tuesday, the Drug Enforcement Commission (DEC) Anti-Money Laundering Unit seized two properties in Ibex Hill belonging to Mrs Lungu on suspicion that they could be proceeds of crime but did not link the said properties to any criminal activity.
KDC spokesperson Chanoda Ngwira described the act as mere political witch-hunt targeted at Easterners but being done under the guise of pursuing the former First Lady and harassing former president Edgar Lungu.
