Two ‘Witch Doctors’ Attempting To ‘Bewitch’ Zambian President Arrested By Police
Zambian Police have arrested two men accused of being witch doctors allegedly hired to bewitch President Hakainde Hichilema.
Police arrested the suspects in Lusaka, the capital city, and gave their identities as Jasten Mabulesse Candunde, 42, and Leonard Phiri, 43.
A police statement issued on Friday said “their purported mission was to use charms to harm” Hichilema.
“The suspects were found in possession of assorted charms, including a live chameleon, and are alleged to be practicing witchdoctors,” the statement reads.
The police said the suspects were hired by Nelson Banda, the younger brother of Emmanuel Banda, a member of the parliament.
The MP was reportedly arrested last month in neighbouring Zimbabwe over robbery charges.
Emmanuel denied the charges but has not been seen in public.
He is also accused of having escaped from custody in August while waiting to appear in court.
Police said the suspects were promised K2,000,000 (about $72,166) after the execution of their mission.
The statement added that the suspects would appear in court “soon”.
