The Zambian Presidency said former MP Emmanuel “Jay Jay” Banda could not evade justice by taking refuge abroad, following his arrest in Mozambique and covert return to Zambia. Christopher Mundia, State House special adviser on legal affairs, said the joint security operation had ended the former Petauke Central MP’s flight from justice, according to MaraviPost.
Jay Jay Banda was captured on the night of 15 October in a small Mozambican town near the border, where he had set up a makeshift studio to broadcast anti-government messages on Facebook. The Zambian Presidency had already rejected equating a fugitive with a refugee in this case, according to the Zambian Presidency.
