NewzThe Chapter One Foundation (COF), a human rights organization in Zambia, has criticized the state's handling of an ongoing treason case involving a detained opposition leader. COF stated that the severity of treason charges does not justify prolonged detention without proper judicial oversight.
This criticism coincides with reports that food was seized at Mukobeko Maximum Security Prison, where the opposition leader is being held. Legal representatives for the detained politician are currently challenging the state's detention practices as the case progresses.
