LILONGWE-(MaraviPost)-The High Court in Lilongwe on Monday, January 27, 2025 found Norman Chisale with a case to answer on three counts in a case in which he is accused of using someone’s certificate to secure employment in the Malawi Defense Force.
In her ruling, judge Madalitso Khoswe Chimwaza, says the evidence given this far in court begs the accused person to enter defence.

The state has charged Chisale with three counts among them Personation of a Person Named in a Certificate and Intimidation.
