Summoned former transport and communication minister Dora Siliya this afternoon failed to avail herself for questioning before a combined team of law enforcement officers over the sale of Zamtel.

Ms. Siliya was expected to report at the task force offices in Lusaka’s woodlands area at about 14 00hrs.

Journalists waited in vain the whole afternoon for Ms Siliya who was expected by the law enforcement officers.

The officers from the investigative wings who were suppose to interrogate Ms Siliya were also made to wait in vain.

Reporters were later briefed by a police officer that Ms. Siliya was unable to come after waiting for her for about one hour, thirty minutes.

And when contacted via phone by QFM news, Ms. Siliya’s lawyer Sakwiba Sikota said he could not talk to QFM but later reversed his statement by promising to call back and give details concerning his client’s absence which he never did.

Police spokesperson Elizabeth Kanjela later told QM news that the police had been informed by lawyer Sakwiba Sikota that his client was unwell.

Ms. Kanjela noted that the police will consider rescheduling the dates for questioning to allow Ms. Siliya to recover.
