LILONGWE-(MaraviPost)-Chief Resident Magistrate Austin Banda has granted bail to former Secretary to the Cabinet, Colleen Zamba.
One of the conditions of her bail is that she pledges her house property in Area 43 as bond and provides sureties.
Zamba appeared in court to face charges of abusing her office between 2022 and 2023.
According to the charge sheet, she allegedly misused her position by recruiting 300 individuals without following proper procedures.
In addition to pledging her property, Zamba has been ordered to report to the National Headquarters in Area 30 once every fortnight, starting from December 15.
She is also required to surrender her travel documents to ensure she does not leave the country without court authorization.
Zamba was arrested on Wednesday at Kamuzu International Airport while preparing to travel to Switzerland to attend her daughter’s graduation.
The case remains ongoing as investigations continue, and Zamba is expected to comply fully with all bail conditions while awaiting further proceedings in court.
