Zambie : L’ancien ministre Mutotwe Kafwaya, tué par balle lors d’une opération de la police
This is quite unusual. In Zambia, former Transport Minister Mutotwe Kafwaya was shot dead during a raid by security forces on the residence of leading opposition figure Brian Mundubile in Kabulonga on August 14. This was confirmed on Wednesday, August 19, 2026, by Zambia's Inspector General of Police, Graphel C. Musamba. He added that Kafwaya's body was only formally identified on Wednesday evening, following reports on social media concerning his disappearance.
Mortally wounded
The security forces' operation did not go as planned, according to Mr. Musamba. Indeed, upon arrival at the scene, the intervention unit reportedly came under fire from unidentified individuals, prompting them to return fire. One man was fatally wounded and his death was confirmed at the hospital.
The authorities had not formally identified him. The body was ultimately found to be that of the former minister.
Opposition figure Brian Mundubile has already disputed the police version of events. He claims that Mutotwe Kafwaya was shot dead in his bedroom, in front of him.
