Former first lady of Zambia detained on suspicion of stealing

In Zambia, the police have taken the wife of former president Edgar Lungu into custody for three crimes. One of the charges is stealing a car, but she claims she didn’t do it.

Esther Lungu, who is currently being held in the capital city of Lusaka, has been arrested along with three other people.

Police spokesperson Danny Mwale said that the four people were also charged with stealing a certificate for a property in Lusaka.

They are also accused of having things that are believed to be money from illegal activities.

Some people who used to work for the government and some family members of Mr Lungu are being investigated for possibly doing illegal things.

They all say they didn’t do anything wrong.
