Vice President Inonge Wina says the Anti Corruption Commission -ACC- is still assessing Former President Rupiah Banda’s acquittal.
Mrs. Wina says government will wait for the response from the Commission before stating its position on the restoration of Mr. Banda’s immunity.
She told Parliament on Friday that the ACC is an independent body which will be allowed to operate freely.
The Vice President was responding to a question raised in Parliament Last Friday by Chadiza MP Allan Mbewe who wanted to know when Government will restore the Immunity of Former President Rupiah Banda.
And Mrs. Wina says government will soon state its position regarding the importation of alleged toxic copper concentrates by Konkola Copper Mine from Chile.
