Police to summon individuals claiming Tutwa Ngulube was poisoned

By Staff Writer
The Inspector General of Police Lemmy Kajoba says the police will today start summoning individuals who are on record of making claims that the late Tutwa Ngulube was poisoned to help Police with investigations.

Mr Kajoba said those who have been claiming that there was foul play in the death of Mr Ngulube have never been to the Police so that they provide the Police with evidence substantiating their claims.

He said Police is concerned with the continuous statements being made by some individuals concerning Mr Ngulube’s passing on.

“From the time he passed on, some people have been heard in some sections of the media insinuating that he was poisoned and that they have evidence to that effect.

We wish to state that the Zambia Police treated late Honourable Ngulube’s death as a sudden and as per procedure, an Inquiry File was opened. Postmortem was conducted to establish the cause of death,” he said.

Mr Kajoba said in an event that the cause of death is natural, the surviving family deserves the right to privacy in terms of disclosing the deceased’s cause of death.
