Pilato fled Zambia in early January after receiving death threats following the release of his hit song Koswe Mumpoto (rat in the pot), which ruling Patriotic Front (PF) members interpreted as criticising President Edgar Lungu and his government.
on February 5, the Lusaka Magistrate Court issued a bench warrant for Pilato’s arrest after he failed to appear in court on a trumped up charge of disobeying lawful orders after protesting the purchase of 42 fire tenders for $42 million in September 2017.
