Advocate Tundu Lissu, president of the Tanganyika Law Society (TLS) and MP for Singida East was last Thursday shot by unknown gunmen in Dodoma and was rushed to a Nairobi hospital to receive emergency treatment.

Early reports suggested the gunmen, whose number could not be ascertained, had tailgated his car as he was being driven home for lunch after parliament’s morning session.
