The Zambia police’s handling of a citizen charged with a misdemeanour pales in comparison with the Metropolitan Police’s handling of even a murderer, so why not leave the MET out of this! What we have is thuggery and I have personally experienced before(twice). No matter what the crime committed(which I don’t condone), there is need for professionalism which seems to be seriously lacking at the moment. To see a citizenry in full support of this is heartbreaking cause you don’t know who will be roughed up next!

Just one question, how many of us have ever had an issue competently dealt with by Zambia Police?

Ba Kapokola ba pa zed baligomauka last , even if you cooperate bala ponona ifyabipa. Elo bakunga nge mimbulu olo impanshi nangu taulufyenye. They will tell you ,” UZA KAMBA KU ZOKOLO “. and will be assaulted by each officer reporting on duty.They are frustrated lot with no incentives from their employer and their frustration is difussed by beating innocent zambians.They fear criminals because they associate with them and get bribes.The time that PF will loose grip of power and it goes to the opposition bakasumina x10 .Especially UPND, Just imagine HH ,Republican president,Katuka as minister of home affairs.You will cry why you were born and joined politics. Just wait ba PF with your chakolwa president and wait for judgement day which is just near the corner .Iwe kashetani…

Barbaric of a policemen behaving like thugs! Whatever they are taught during training to make them professionals does not take root! The officer should not have struck back as in doing so he became complicit in turning the scene into a brawl! Exercise of restraint would have had the lady charged for the original offence that necessitated her removal from the courts AND for assaulting a law enforcement officer. Maybe the slap disoriented him such that he lashed back wildly! If the lady sued him it would be difficult for him to defend his action as retaliation! Anyway it is said most of the men we see in police uniform are in fact PF party cadres and nothing good can be expected from them!

Whether there was a wrong here, albeit an instinctive reaction by a mum, why do the usual suspects here and the despicable PF officials only react when someone ‘hits back’? Many a time they turn a blind eye to the behaviour of their purchased Police towards innocent people. That’s the disgusting hypocrisy we are also entitled to condemn.

This incidence is a reflection of wider issues we have. Firstly we have a psychopath regime determined to preserve it’s power at whatever cost, inspite of being clueless about running a country. Secondly, the regimes continued survival is compounded by a weak civil society (including compromised NGOs), impotent Parliament and a scared population. Delayed reaction means eventual reaction will tear the country apart irretrievably
