Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>Charles Kabozya a witness from DRC broke under the piercing Makebi Zulu\u2019s cross examination.<\/p>\n

Kabozya offered to abandon his testimony in court and told Hon. Ireen Wishimanga that he wished to return to the DRC Embassy and go back home to Congo.<\/p>\n

Mr. Charles Kabozya investigations magistrate from Kinshasa Congo, also told the court that he has does not know Malanji and that he has never met him before.<\/p>\n

He further told the court that the two companies namely China Civil Engineering Corporation and Mass Investment Group SARL exit in Congo.<\/p>\n

Kabozya further informed the court that he does not know and never met Malanji.<\/p>\n

This is in a matter in which Malanji and former secretary to treasury Fredson Yamba are charged with 10 counts of willful failure to comply with laid down procedures and possession of property suspected to be proceeds of crime.<\/p>\n

Yamba is charged with two counts of willful failure to comply with laid down procedures while Malanji is facing eight counts of being in possession of property suspected to be proceeds of crime.<\/p>\n

During cross-examination, defence lawyer Makebi Zulu presented unmarked document to the witness and asked whether the document looks at the opening of different kinds of companies, Kabozya said he cannot pronounce himself to the document that is not coming from him.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t want to pronounce myself over a document that is not coming from me. It\u2019s not because I\u2019m Congolese that you will have to ask me on every document that are coming from Congo. I don\u2019t want to comment on the document I know nothing about,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

And asked to mention the name on the documents, the witness reserved himself from responding.<\/p>\n

\u201cI cannot pronounce myself on the document, I reserve myself before the court of law, I\u2019m not here to satisfy anyone,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Further asked if he was able to see what was listed as objectives on the named document, Kabozya requested for the courts protection.<\/p>\n

\u201cI seek this court to protect me, I\u2019m a witness and not an accused. This question is reserved for the accused. I was sent here by the Congo government, I\u2019m a free citizen. I request the court to protect me. I can withdraw myself and go to the embassy and return home,\u201d said Kabozya.<\/p>\n

Cross-examination continues this morning<\/p>\n
