..wins another murder case as Lusaka man walks to freedom at no case to answer stage
Lusaka lawyer, Mr. Phill Chola Muya has once again caused tears of joy at the Lusaka High Court when he successfully defended a Lusaka man for allegedly murdering his best friend at a bar in Libala South.
The particulars of the offense are that Edwin Chifunda on the 6th day of September, 2021, at Lusaka in the Lusaka District of the Lusaka province did murder Chanda Sabele Lupapulo.
When the matter came up today at Lusaka High Court, Justice R. Chibbabukah in her Ruling stated that the State through Senior State Advocates Mr. Sikazwe and Mr. Phiri failed to prove the requisite ingredients of the Charge of Murder and that the Defence successfully defended the matter thereby proving the innocence of the accused person.
Muya has in the previous past successfully defended a number of criminal and civil matters including the infamous drug trafficking trial of the Court officials and worth-noting was part of the Defence team for H.E President Mr. Hakainde Hichilema during his Treason Trial while he worked at Keith Mweemba Advocates before moving to Chalwe and Kabalata Legal Practitioners.
We can only wish the best for the Youthful Lawyer!
