Holland, a lawyer from Leigh Day, was in Zambia to meet with the communities to discuss their claims which relate to alleged pollution from the copper mine in Chingola which they claim is causing damage to farming land and water sources of our clients. He was arrested by the Police during the meeting and charged for holding a meeting without permit under a law stemming from colonial times.
