The DPP told MCP to quit whining about legal cases against their people and let the courts do their thing. Spokesperson Shadrick Namalomba said the ruling party used to bend the rules when they had power, and anyone who broke the law should deal with the fallout.
MCP went off after cops grabbed Secretary General Richard Chimwendo Banda on attempted murder charges, plus Vitumbiko Mumba and Jessie Kabwira for undisclosed reasons. The party called it a witch hunt designed to mess with opposition leaders while the country deals with food shortages, currency problems, and expensive fuel.
MCP wants the arrests to stop, and they still trust judges to handle things fairly despite political pressure from above.
