In a dramatic turn of events, police in Lusaka West intervened just in time to save a 32-year-old security guard from a vicious mob attack.
The guard had earlier shot and wounded his former colleague at Connec Quarry Company, who had come to demand unpaid wages.
The tense situation quickly escalated into a mob be@ting, with angry onlookers turning on the security guard. Luckily, police arrived promptly and rescued him from the clutches of the irate crowd.
The guard’s actions were reportedly sparked by a dispute over unpaid wages, highlighting the urgent need for better labor practices and conflict resolution mechanisms.
