Lungu’s remains to be kept at private mortuary in Pretoria
The Zambian government and the Lungu family reached an agreement before the High Court in Pretoria.
Black News The mortal remains of former Zambian President Edgar Lungu will be kept at AVBOB private mortuary in Pretoria East.
The Zambian government and the Lungu family reached an agreement before the High Court in Pretoria.
The court has also set aside the April 22 order after Lungu’s remains were moved from another funeral parlour.
While Lungu’s body is being kept at AVBOB, the Zambian government will bear the costs.
In the event of refusal by AVBOB to accept the appointment, the court shall make the appointment of another mortuary.
Any other person who wishes to access the remains for any purpose must obtain a court order.
Meanwhile, the Lungu family says it wants to give the former president a decent burial.
