Counsellor Lutterodt faces court tomorrow over breach of peace charge
Cyril George Carstensen Lutterodt, widely known as Counsellor Lutterodt, is set to face court tomorrow over alleged inciting comments made in a viral video.
According to the Criminal Investigation Department (CID), the suspect allegedly encouraged some youth to storm the residence of late highlife musician Daddy Lumba.
In a press release dated March 10, 2026, the police said investigations indicate that the comments were made in connection with issues surrounding the late musician and were considered offensive and capable of causing a breach of the peace.
The CID noted that he has since been granted bail.
However, it said he will appear before court on Wednesday, March 11, 2026.
According to the police, he will face charges of offensive conduct conducive to a breach of the peace under Section 207 of the Criminal Offences Act, 1960 (Act 29), as well as inciting violence under the Criminal Offences Act and the Public Order Act, 1994 (Act 491).
