The ruling United Party for National Development (UPND) suspects foul play in the death of its Kabwata Member of Parliament Levy Mkandawire who died in a traffic accident at the gate of his house last week.
In a statement obtained by Q-News, UPND Spokesperson Cornelius Mweetwa says the events prior to Mr Mkandawire’s death were an indication of foul play.
Mr Mweetwa says the heavy defeat suffered by the PF in the August general elections has led the former ruling party to start mooting plans aimed at undermining the new administration.
He says the UPND is also aware of strategies that are being mooted by the PF to try and undermine the leadership of President Hakainde Hichilema.
Mr Mkandawire, who will be put to rest today, met his fate when a BMW X5 registration number ALM 5955 which was being driven by Jane Mwale lost control and rammed into his stationary Toyota IST registration number ALX 2038 which then squeezed him against the wall fence.
