ZAMBIAN police said on Sunday managers at a Chinese-run coal mine who shot at workers protesting poor working conditions would be charged with attempted murder.
Twelve workers at Collum Coal Mine in the southern town of Sinazongwe were injured on Friday when mainly Chinese managers fired randomly at the protesting workers.
'The managers are likely to be charged with attempted murder and this may be on Monday or Tuesday,' inspector general of police Francis Kabonde told journalists.
'A warn and caution statement has already been recorded and what should be realised is that there is no one above the law...' Kabonde said. LINK
