“Let that noise continue making noise and we will do our job. We will not answer to press queries. My answer is no comment whether it is there or not there, the ACC will do its job. So for me, no comment, Mr Shamakamba said.
But Economic Front (EF) leader Wynter Kabimba SC has given Mr Shamakamba a seven day ultimatum to disclose the nature of the investigations against Mr Muchende, or he would have no option but to seek legal redress in the courts of law to force the ACC to disclose the nature of investigations.
The Daily Revelation, an online newspaper recently broke a news story from State House sources revealing that the ACC has placed a restriction order on the house belonging to Muchende over assertions that he received over US$500,000 from a named former liquidator, but that powerful forces were maneuvering to stop the investigations.
According the Daily Revelation, Mr Kabimba has since written to the commission, saying his own impeccable sources have collaborated the Daily Revelation story.
It is reported that Mr Kabimba has written a letter to Mr Shamakamba, stating that his sources have told him that the ACC had decided to withhold information from the general public in the on-going investigations against Muchende.
“This silence is contrary to your well-established policy of keeping the general public informed about investigations in matters of public interest,” the Daily Revelation reports.
