Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>3 Police Officers in Kagoro area in Katete District of the Eastern Province are battling for their lives in ICU at St. Francis Hospital while others are also nursing serious injuries after being badly beaten up by villagers.<\/p>\n

According to information made available to Sun FM Zambia, the villagers got angry when they saw a murder suspect walking freely after his release from police cells.<\/p>\n

They started beating up the murder suspect and as a group of Police officers arrived at the scene including the CIO to rescue the suspect from the mob, villagers pounced on the Police officers leaving them with serious injuries to nurse and their vehicle burnt to ashes.<\/p>\n

It is reported that calm was only restored after the intervention of ZNS officers from Mutetezi Camp. Police Spokesperson Rae Hamoonga is yet to give an official statement on the incident.<\/p>\n
