Zambia Arrests Over Xenophobic Attacks In Lusaka by Nobody: 8:12am On Apr 20, 2016 |
More than 250 people have been
arrested in Zambia's capital,
Lusaka, to curb xenophobic
violence which has hit the city,
police say. At least 62 Rwandan-owned shops
have been looted in the the riots
which have spread to nine poor
neighbourhoods, police added. Many Zambians describe it as the
worst xenophobic violence in the
country. The riots started in two areas on
Monday following rumours that
Rwandans were behind ritual killings
in Lusaka. At least seven people have been
murdered in recent weeks and their
body parts removed. Rumours circulating on social media
alleged the body parts would be used
as charms to ensure success in
business.
