Malanji granted bail

Hector Simfukwe-The Lusaka High Court has granted former Foreign Affairs Minister JOSEPH MALANJI a 10-thousand kwacha bail.

The court has also ordered Mr. MALANJI to provide two working sureties.

Lusaka Lawyer MAKEBI ZULU has confirmed that his client has been given bail in a ruling delivered in the chambers.

Mr. ZULU said the demand by the Drug Enforcement Commission -DEC- for Mr. MALANJI to give them documents they intend to use in trial has been set aside as being illegal.

He said the same conditions given to Mr. MALANJI apply to former Secretary to the Treasury FREDSON YAMBA.

Mr. MALANJI is jointly charged with Mr. YAMBA for willful failure to comply with procedure on supplementary expenditure.

He is also charged for being in possession of properties, which are reasonably suspected to be proceeds of crime.
