  1. Kill that bastard please. No need to take him to court because there are lawyers who can twist the whole issuie.

  2. This is real sad how can somebody do that? Why not just steal money and go away. Bring back death sentence to our society

  3. TOO MANY FORCES
    OF DARKNESS MAÑIFESTING IN THE WORLD NOW

    THE FIGHT BETWEEN THE WICKED AND THE RIGHTEOUS IS JUST TOO
    HUGE !!

    MAY GOD INTERVENE !!

  4. How can three lives I mean human lives be lost for a car? How? and why? Has life become so cheap like that?
    With society morals decaying that fast there is urgency to introduce a subject in primary and secondary schools where humanity and morality would be taught. Without emphasis on these we would be hearing and seeing more and more deaths and robberies..

    Economic prophets, preach against these. These are real serious social issues and not the prophecies of people’s birthdays and winning netball teams that you are busy with? Political chiefs (Lundu, Lukwa) and political pastors (Bvumbwe, Gama) turn your attention to challenges that matter to the society most. Address them in your spheres of influence. Conduct studies of most common sins and package your sermons against inhumanity and materialism. Lead us out of envy. If the murdered family (RIP) was political we could have heard your loudest noises and bangs. Let us sound alarm for every robbery and murder regardless of who the victim and suspect are.
    Let us do something. Restore death penalty.

    1. and they will just be silent………they only speak when the police shoot a robber and not the other way round…shame shame shame!!!!!

  5. Gone just like that? How does someone dream of wiping out the entire family just like that???No remorse. This man should also go. Naense apite!

  6. Zoona. Why wipe out the entire family of your relatives just like that without any remorse. Death sentence should be carried out on this person. Koma mwabanthu banyakhe mulije lusungu!

  7. give us that person timukanyange nafenso timudule dule ngati kanyenya.Chikanakhala chabwiono dyabulosi uyu kusabadwako.

  8. O Beloved Malawi! Where are we heading to? God have mercy over us! This is so pathetic

  9. Sikusinja ndi Gwenembe. I thought it was just a fiction until this happened. Great job Malawi police.
