LILONGWE-(MaraviPost)-Human rights activist Chimwemwe Mbeya Mhango Ntchindi has slammed Malawi Congress Party (MCP) zealot popularly known as Mbiya for threatening to deal with Frank Chiwanda over MCP Secretary General Richard Chimwendo Banda detention.
Mhango, the former Malawi Defence Force (MDF) officer is reacting to social media audio circulation which Mbiya is heard threatening Chiwanda for initiating Chimwendo’s arrest in attempted murder case.
In an audio which The Maravi Post Post posted a day ago, Mbiya questioned Chiwanda as to why he initiated Chimwendo’s arrest.
Mbiya further threatened to deal with Chiwanda if Chimwendo remains in cell.
But reacting to the audio, Mhango expressed worrisome over Mbiya’s unpalatable behaviour of threatening others.
“Mbiya’s action on a victim is uncalled for. What if MCP was still in power, what could be the fate of us whom he also threatened to kill?”, he queries.
The activist adds, “This behaviour is a threat to our society that is aimed at violating people’s rights.
“It’s my appeal to authorities to put this to stop. Let the law take its course on this uncalled for inhumane characters.
According to court documents, Dala Kadula is Chimwendo Banda’s accomplices in attempted to Frank Chiwanda in 2022 in Dowa.
However, the court stopped Kadula’s arrest as he is also answering others assault charges.
MCP Secretary General Chimwendo has been on detention for a month now as the court is yet to grant him bail.
But Chimwendo has not been fully charged in the court.
