The Supreme Court Zambia Judge Mumba Malila recently gave a testimony before the court which clearly indicates that Zambia is in dire need of policies and practices that would help in eradicating corruption and unethical practices that have crippled the nation like a plague. In his testimony, Justice Mumba Malila opened about a case of Dr. Rajan Mahtani, a noted businessman and philanthropist in Zambia with more than thirty years of business experience. The case in the said testimony was in 2012 related to Dr. Mahtani in which the final judgement was given against him. However, the testimony from the judge states that the judgement was plagues by external forces and the case was against the interests of the public policies. The judge who was the Attorney General during that time along with others tried to make the case ‘null and void’ due to its irrelevant nature, but the tribunal did not change its decision and the final judgement was given against Dr. Rajan Mahtani, even though the evidences and facts presented denoted otherwise. Those who tried to raise their void were also silenced by removal from their positions.
This is not the first time that Dr. Rajan Mahtani has been a victim of poor decision making from courts which sidelined the evidences and facts and gave judgement overpowered by corrupt external forces. Justice Mumba Malila confirmed that the decision making was influenced by certain corrupt yet powerful individuals including businessmen and even politicians. As a result of the corrupt practices of these powerful individuals, large scale citizens and transparent businessmen like Dr. Rajan Mahtani keep suffering. It is high time for the Zambian government and the law makers to take actions against these widespread corrupt practices and improve the condition of the nation so that there is room for further development and growth for the people.
Zambian nation was shocked by the recent testimony from Supreme Court Judge. Honorable Justice Mumba Malila is a notable judge at the Supreme Court of Zambia. As such, his testimony counts as a critical turning point for the Zambian law and court proceedings. The testimony has been considered as significant and shocking at the same time. The testimony given by a judge at the Supreme Court Zambia is a testament of a positive change happening across the Zambian nation. With this revelation, it is expected that more and more people will be coming forward and help the law and government to catch corrupt and unethical entities influencing the decision making of the government. On the other hand, this testimony has revealed the large scale unethical practices such as corruption and bribery and focuses on how deep these practices have penetrated within the government.
One of the cases which were of significance in this testimony was related to Dr. Rajan Lekhraj Mahtani. Dr. Mahtani is a notable businessman in Zambia and has been successfully establishing numerous business ventures. Some of his companies include Mahtani Group of Companies, Finsbury Investments and Finance Bank Zambia. He is also a notable charity person. However, he is often attacked by conspirators who try to damage his reputation and his businesses. According to the testimony by Mumba Malila, the same issue occurred during the 2012 case which went against him. According to the testimony, the 2012 case against Dr. Rajan Mahtani was motivated by several political undertones and was against the interests of the public policies. Despite making several requests to make the case null and void, no such actions were taken by the tribunal who was handling the case at that time. This clearly showcases that the judgment and decision making was influenced by external forces.
This latest testimony has opened up lot of questions on the current strength and decision-making powers of the Zambian government.
