POLICE in Lusaka have arrested social media content creator Gezile Smith Mwale, 23, for offences of prohibition, humiliation and harassment.

The arrest follows a report made on November 21, 2025, around 13:00 hours by Abigail Mutale, 28, popularly known as Ms Tokyo, also of Ibex Hill, who complained that she had been subjected to repeated humiliation and harassment on a social media platform.

In a statement, police spokesperson Geoffrey Chilabi said preliminary investigations revealed that between November 1 and November 21, 2025, Gezile allegedly went live on her TikTok account, disseminated false information and published an image of the complainant.

“The material circulated is alleged to have harmed the complainant’s reputation and exposed her to public ridicule, humiliation and embarrassment. Following these allegations, police apprehended and detained the suspect,” he said.

Mr Chilabi said Gezile was subsequently warned and cautioned, and later formally charged and arrested in accordance with the provisions of the Cyber Crime Act No. 4 of 2025.

He said the suspect has since been released on police bond and will appear in court soon.

Mr Chilabi urged members of the public to exercise responsibility, respect and restraint when using social media platforms.

“Online conduct must uphold the dignity and rights of all individuals. Any misuse of digital platforms to harass, humiliate or harm others will be addressed in accordance with the law,” he said.
