Mr Hichilema said that suspects involved in such crimes would be tried in the Economic and Financial Crimes Court.
“Individuals who are found guilty of stealing medicines will face prosecution without bail, and their properties — such as houses — may be seized if they are suspected to have been acquired through proceeds of crime,” President Hichilema stated.
