Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>The joint law enforcement Agencies and Lawyers representing embattled journalist Faith Musonda have remained tight lipped over details pertaining to her arrest.<\/p>\n

According to sources, Ms. Musonda was on Monday arrested by a joint team from the Anti-Corruption Commission-ACC and the Drug Enforcement Commission-DEC on fresh allegations of having property suspected to be proceeds of crime.<\/p>\n

She infamously become the center of media attention after police discovered K65 million and US$57,000 cash in a house purportedly to be hers in new Kasama about three months ago.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile Ms. Musonda\u2019s lawyer Jonas Zimba referred the matter back to the police saying lawyers work according to instructions and he had no instructions to make a comment.<\/p>\n
