PATRIOTIC Front (PF) president Miles Sampa wants to have Lumezi Member of Parliament Munir Zulu joined to a defamation case after he allegedly accused him of being behind suspected murders and practising homosexuality.
Mr Sampa, who is Matero lawmaker, wants the High Court to allow him to join Mr Zulu to a lawsuit he filed against businessman Maxwell Chongu in June.
