DPP accuses Mtambo of staging office attack

Centre for Human Rights and Rehabilitation (CHRR) Executive Director, Timothy Mtambo, staged the purpoted attacks on his office, the governing Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) has said.

Dausi: Dismissed any possibility that DPP was responsible for the attacks

Central Region police spokesperson Norriet Chihana confirmed that they have received a  report that thugs on Thursday evening twice terrorised the office CHRR in Lilongwe, severely beat up a security guard before attempting, in vain, to petrol-bomb the premises.

But DPP secretary general Gresedler Jeffrey claimed Mtambo  “planned and executed”  the attacks on CHRR offices in order to gain political mileage.

CHRR is an outspoken critic of the DPP administration and President Peter Mutharika and the development comes amid growing tension ahead of 2019 elections.

Human rights activists and Mtambo himself, suspected the attack was the work of regime thugs.

But DPP spokesperson Nicholas Dausi said he allegations were baseless.

“They are just using DPP to get more money from their donors. We categorically reject those assertions,” said Dausi.

Meanwhile, Central Region police spokesperson Chihana, said the cops at Lingadzi police station  are carrying out investigations  “ to establish concrete details of the issue.”

Of course, everyone knows that it’s staged-up bombing. Even these people (FROM LIKOMA, LEGO, SETTING AGENDA…, etc) who are making noise at this forum know that it’s a staged-up bombing. This is undisputed fact. But that’s not where it touches me most. Rather, I am interested in Mtambo’s failure to pitch up a better story that would have made some of us to give that story a benefit of doubt. Honestly, I didn’t know that Mtambo is this daffy that he can’t come up with a better story which would have made it look like it. A graduate? Huh so… Read more »

I am not such a small brain as you are to be a follower. I analyse issues and take a position based on my analysis of different perspectives. I am not such a chicken brain not to know that it’s your thuggery party called DPP which in all sense and measure is a criminal enterprise is behind this thuggery and heinous act. You DPP guys should get life for once. Why do you have too much passion for violence?. Why?. Primitive politics practised by a primitive party under an inept president . Write again dude

Ine I doubt the version of this guy and gay. I doubt if any reasonable team of hit-men angadalire information ya guard wa G4S kuti adziwe kumene iyeyu amakhala. Obviously they would have made a research on their own and attack him where he is most vulnerable. Actually a boma sangalephere kudziwa where a citizen lives. If they really needed you could they have come to office at night chonsecho akudziwa kuti anthu amakhala ataweruka mma office? Tiziti guard amadziwanso kumene kumakhala ma staff members? I think he staged this to get attention or sympathy in a similar way Kamlepo… Read more »
