The Lusaka Magistrates’ Court is today expected to deliver judgement in the unlawful assembly case involving former Chief Government Spokesperson Chishimba Kambwili.
Mr Kambwili is accused of unlawfully hosting a gathering of more than 15 youths at his Chilenje residence in January 2023, after they reportedly visited him to apologise for insulting him during the 2021 election campaign.
The defence closed its case after two witnesses testified that the youths presented a police permit before being allowed into the residence and that Mr Kambwili accepted their apology.
The court is now expected to determine whether the prosecution has proved its case beyond reasonable doubt against Mr Kambwili.
