Police have formally arrested Post News paper Editor, Chansa Kabwela, for circulating obscene materials.
Ms. Kabwela who was briefly detained has however been released on police bond.
Post newspaper lawyer, Sam Mujuda, told ZNBC that Ms. Kabwela will m in court on Tuesday.
The arrest of Ms. Kabwela comes barely two weeks after police recorded a warn and caution statement from her for being in possession of obscene pictures.
President Rupiah Banda at the last press conference ordered investigations into the circulation of pictures of a woman giving birth at the University Teaching Hospital in Lusaka.
The incident took place during a strike by nurses and other health workers.
Whoa this is a completely baseless arrest and a clear case of media intimidation by the Banda government.
