Two journalists have been arrested for covering the police raiding Chilufya Tayali’s House in Lusaka, Zambia.

The two have been identified as MUVI Television journalist Innocent Phiri and camera man Obvious Kaunda.

Police raid at Tayali’s house came in wake of his live facebook broadcast in which he attacked President Hakainde Hichilema regarding a number of issues.

Phiri and Kaunda remain detained at Lesoleil Community Police Station in Roma Township in Lusaka.

Meanwhile, right activists in Zambia are demanding for the immediate release of the two journalists.
