Tanzanian government says it has never had, and does not have, any plan to poison anyone in prison, nor does it intend to do so to anyone
The treason case against the opposition party leader, CHADEMA’s Tundu Lissu, continued on July 1, 2025, during its preliminary stage at the Kisutu Resident Magistrate’s
In his testimony, the police inspector explained that the unit operates around the clock in shifts, monitoring social media platforms to detect actions that may constitute cybercrime.
Lissu has complained of being denied the right to consult his lawyers in private, being deprived of the right to worship, and being treated as if he were a death row inmate
Kutokana na malalamiko ya kukosa faragha na mawakili wake, Tundu Lissu aliamua kuanzia leo kuendelea mbele atakuwa akijiwakilisha mwenyewe, jambo ambalo Mahakama imeliridhia.
The case was last adjourned on May 19, 2025, after the prosecution informed the court that the investigation was in its “final stage,” a statement the court deemed “insufficient to assist the court.”

Some of the key items of the joint motion of the resolution include a call on the unconditional release of Lissu and the call on the Tanzanian authorities to reinstate Chadema’s full participation in the October 2025 elections
