Two men are on trial in the Lusaka Magistrates’ Court, accused of forging a confidential government document allegedly signed on behalf of the Republican President and falsely attributed to Justice Minister Princess Kasune in an attempt to solicit financial assistance linked to the constitutional amendment process.
Tulani Chisenga is charged with one count of forgery, contrary to Section 347 of the Penal Code Chapter 87 of the Laws of Zambia, while he and his co-accused, David Moyo, face an additional charge of uttering false documents, contrary to Section 352.
It is alleged that on April 4, 2025, in Lusaka, Chisenga, with intent to deceive or defraud, forged a document titled “Confidential Request for Financial Assistance in the Constitutional Amendment Exercise.”
The document allegedly purported to have been written and signed by Justice Minister Kasune on behalf of the President, when in fact it was not.
In the second count, the State alleges that Chisenga and Moyo, acting together between April 4 and April 9, 2025, knowingly and fraudulently uttered the said false document to Happy Kaoma, a bank clerk at Indo-Zambia Bank.
The prosecution contends that the document was presented as authentic in an attempt to solicit financial assistance under the guise of an official government process.
The matter has been adjourned to May 4, 2026. Justice Minister Kasune is expected to testify as one of the State witnesses.
