UPND President Hakainde Hichilema has disclosed that he was brutalised by heavily armed state police while picking him and five others from Chimbokaila Prison to Mukobeko Maximum Prison on Friday.
Mr. Hichilema says he was bundled like a bandit even when he did not object to being transferred to Mukobeko Maximum Prison in Kabwe.
He says it is unfortunate that he is being ill-treated when he is not a criminal.
Mr. Hichilema has since called on Zambians to remain strong as his vision for a better Zambia is not broken.
Meanwhile, the UPND President says he is ready to give up his life if that is what it means to fight for democracy and economic development for the country.
He says Zambia’s democracy has regressed in the recent past, but the country must sacrifice along with him in order to restore it.
This is contained in a statement made available to Muvi TV News by the UPND Media Team.
Mr. Hichilema and 5 others who have been slapped with treason charges were moved from Lusaka Central Prison to Mukobeko Maximum Security Prison on Friday.
