Lusaka magistrate Stanford Ngobola has sentenced PF national commander Innocent Kalimanshi known as ‘Ama Americans’ to one year imprisonment with hard labour for drug trafficking.

Reports indicate that the magistrate has also jailed PF cadre Andrew Mende to a year in prison with hard labour.

Magistrate Ngobola said both sentences are with effect from the date they were arrested in August this year.

He, however, acquitted Kalimanshi of unlawful use of a motor vehicle.
