A Zambian Magistrate’s Court has remanded a 23-year-old suspect, accused of having slept with more than 13 female members of the country’s parliament and used it as a ploy to extort money from them.
According to reports, Benson Chacha engaged in the sexual encounter with the politicians and filmed them which he has been using to blackmail and demand huge sums of money from them.
Benson Chacha was reportedly arrested in Tanzania following intelligence by both the Tanzanian and Kenyan security forces about his fraudulent activities.
He was remanded into police custody on Tuesday by Senior Principal Magistrate, Christine Njagi when he appeared before the court.
The court further ordered that his mental fitness is examined at Mathari Mental Hospital after his lawyer, Job Geresa claimed he was mentally unfit.
Benson Chacha is currently being held in custody at the Kenyan Central Police Station pending the substantive hearing scheduled for April 9.
