Addressing mourners during the funeral mass for the 42 Kawambwa High School boys and two others that died after the truck they were travelling in overturned in Kawambwa on Friday, Fr Mpasa said there was no justification for the police, who mounted a roadblock to have allowed the truck driver to continue its journey despite glaring evidence of overloading.
'I have heard that there was a roadblock before the accident scene. I cannot believe this story. How possible can it be?' Fr Mpasa asked. 'What happened to the police? What was in the minds of the police officers? Where were their professional ethics and morality?'
He said the nation should use the day of national mourning to reflect on its morality.
Fr Mpasa said he wished he could have asked the driver to disclose what he did to the police officers for them to allow him to proceed with his overloaded truck. Link to Source
