Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>The Judicial Complaints Commission has begun hearing the matter in which Director of Public Prosecution, Lilian Siyuni, is accused of gross misconduct.<\/p>\n

The proceedings have begun after several adjournments in the matter as Ms. Siyuni made a request for President Hakainde Hichilema to lift her oath of secrecy to enable her respond to the allegations.<\/p>\n

In this matter, Activist, Chama Fumba, popularly known as Pilato filed a complaint before the Judicial Complaints Commission over alleged incompetence and gross misconduct by Ms. Siyuni.<\/p>\n

Mr. Fumba claims the DPP interfered with the functions of the Drug Enforcement Commission to re-arrest former Konkola Copper Mines, Milingo Lungu, on fresh charges.<\/p>\n

Mr. Fumba wants the Commission to undertake proceedings for the removal of Ms. Siyuni as DPP because she has no powers to instruct Law Enforcement Agencies.<\/p>\n
