Police have apprehended an accountant at the Independent Broadcasting Authority (IBA) in connection with the murder of director general, Guntila Muleya.
Francis Chipyoka, was apprehended in Mansa while allegedly trying to flee to Congo.
Chipyoka becomes the fifth person to be arrested in this case, following the arrest of four other suspects.
Among those arrested on Saturday are three police officers and a civilian.
Police public relations officer Rae Hamoonga confirmed Chipyoka’s arrest and said the suspect was the alleged mastermind and made a payment to cover up their tracks for their alleged corrupt dealings, as he posed as an obstacle.
Police had earlier yesterday issued a wanted person notice for Chipyoka as he had allegedly fled Lusaka.
Muleya was found dead in Njolwe area on Wednesday with gunshot wounds and he was put to rest on Saturday.
