Attorney General Thabo Chakaka Nyirenda says the government will soon get back the K750 million which was paid to a dubious UK firm for Affordable Input Program (AIP) after a court in Germany issues a repatriation order.
He said the processes to recover the money is at an advanced stage.

In a statement, Chakaka Nyirenda says the money that was paid to the firm through a bank in Munich, Germany will be repatriated to Malawi once a German court issues a confiscation order.
The Attorney General has, however, not indicated a timeframe with regard to when the processes will be concluded.
The fertiliser purchase scandal was exposed following social media allegations that the government had been swindled of K30 billion.
