Lawyer Modecai faults conduct of Judge Mtambo on Kasambara

Malawi’s prominent lawyer Modecai Msiska has step up to represent former minister of Justice and Constitutional Affairs Raphael Kasambara’s appeal against revocation of his bail and accused the conduct of High Court judge Michael Mtambo who revoked Kasambara’s bail in September.

Judge Mtambo – a known foe of Kasambara – revoked the bail of the former justice minister over alleged infringement in his private space by allegedly accessing his private information.

Appearing before the Malawi Supreme Court of Appeal on Thursday, lawyer Msisha argued that the Judge Mtambo erred in revoking his client’s bail because the judge acted as a complainant and a judge by bringing the allegations and then make a ruling.

The matter was heard in camera before Supreme Court judge Rezine Mzikamanda.

Kasambara, currently battling a heart problem, is facing the charge of conspiracy to commit murder in the case of the shooting of former Ministry of Finance budget director Paul Mphwiyo at the gate of his Area 43 residence in Lilongwe on September 13, 2013.

Justice Mzikamanda reserved his ruling on the matter, saying it will be made on a date to be communicated later but before November 20.

this is utter rubbish. kasambara has never been mentioned anywhere in any of cashgate cases. so one would ask, what could have been his motivation to try and kill phwiyo. why is he being dragged into this case. this is all personal bewtween the AG, Mtambo and Mary kachale. there is also an element of politics in the whole game. why should kasambara want to phwiyo dead? you search around you find that there is nothing apart from what his former maid was coached to say as a witness. stupid AG, stupid Mtambo, stupid Mary kachale.

Kodi anthu wophunzila ndi kasambala yekha? even ana anzeru we have had them in malawi but because they are brilliant they make use of their brains….?

If kasambara is not guity zioneka….but one thing i know mr mtambo is not acorrupt man… hes going to pass judgement fairly .. to those love kasambara be quiet ….other wise we need proper justice in this country poor or rich…..not judgement based on popularity…

Ntambo is a disgrace to the judiciary and I wonder why he is clinging to delive judgement when he already Showed his hatred to Kasambara kodi Chief Justice ali kuti akumusiya munthu kuchita abuse office iye ali nonoro ngati mlomwe wodzimbidwa ndi Gondolosi ku mlakho. Panopa akufuna Kasambara atamwalira kuti ziwalo zake akhwimire. A Malawi otsata chilungamo tiyeni titukwane Mtambo ngati mmene anatukwanira Mulli
