WRIGHT Musoma has called for an inquiry in the abduction of former mobile money agent Pamela Chisompa and a dozen other females for over seven months and the eventual jailing of the abductors for more than 660 years.
Mr Musoma is appealing to the Zambia Police and other investigative wings to open an inquest in the 13 abducted females case because according to him, the matter had so many loose ends that needed to be resolved.

Mr Musoma, the president of the Zambia Republican Party (ZRP) said the inquest should look at some of the key points that were raised by the convicts that some politically exposed individuals had sponsored the abduction of the 13 ladies.
He said the abductors had a senior UPND member of being the owner of the house of horror but that the said ruling party official had never been questioned or brought to book.
“We are demanding for an inquest which should conclusively look at some of the key issues that were raised by the convicts. When this crime was burst, the abductors are on record of having accused a senior UPND official of being involved and sponsoring the crime.”
“The abductors revealed that the house in which the 13 females spent seven months after they were abducted belonged to a known official of the ruling party. That official has never been questioned and it is important that an inquest should be instituted to establish who could have sponsored such a crime,” Mr Musoma said.
Mr Musoma said it was good that justice had finally prevailed and the criminals were brought to book but that the big fish were still on the loose.
He said it was not possible for the two young men to have managed to rent and even feed the 13 girls for such a long period of timer unless they had funding from some well-connected individuals.
And former Diplomat Anthony Mukwita has wondered whether the Pamela Chisumpa incident was an isolated one.
Mr Mukwita wondered who paid the rent on the house, bought the food, tampons electricity for the girls while they were detained because the abductors were unemployed.
“The picture just doesn’t fit in my curious author mind, this story is just starting to write itself because something is rotten,” Mr Mukwita said.
