Film producer David Kazadi and his two co-accused, Mwaka Halwiindi and Ruth Muzandu, have pleaded not guilty to charges relating to the alleged production, possession, and circulation of obscene material before the Lusaka Magistrates' Court.
According to the allegations, Kazadi is accused of producing and sharing videos involving Halwiindi and other alleged explicit content between January 2023 and June 2025. Halwiindi has also denied the charges levelled against her.
Meanwhile, Muzandu pleaded not guilty to charges of allegedly circulating and possessing the material. The court heard that she is accused of sharing the content through a WhatsApp group known as “Trip to South Africa.”
The three appeared before the court this morning and were formally informed of the charges against them. The matter has been set down for trial on August 24 and 25, 2026, when the allegations will be examined through court proceedings.
