Turns out a Zacc investigator might have been doing dirty work for that locked-up Italian businessman, Francesco Marconati. The anti-graft commission is now probing one of its own officers, Welemu Adamu, after a woman he arrested filed a complaint accusing him of being on Marconati's payroll.

The complainant, Benardate Mukuku, was previously acquitted in that weird cyanide import case linked to Marconati's mining company. She claims Adamu unlawfully arrested her last year, refusing to listen to her side and insisting she was an "artery" that needed to be cut for Marconati's ex-lover. Her formal letter to Zacc details how the investigator ignored evidence, including a court moment where another Marconati employee admitted the cyanide actually belonged to the businessman's mine. Mukuku says this was all personal revenge from Marconati, who is currently sitting in remand prison on separate firearms charges.

So now Zacc is investigating its own investigator for possible abuse of power and wrongful arrest, while the guy he allegedly worked for awaits trial on gun charges until next year. The whole mess just adds another layer of alleged corruption to a figure already known for his courtroom drama.
