The Judiciary has disclosed that that Principal Resident Magistrate Ben Chitsakamile from Zomba Magistrate Court is the one who issued a midnight order quashing warrant of arrest for business magnet Thom Mpingangira,

Matemba at court to seek reinstatement of warrant of arrest for Mpinganjira

Judiciary spokesperson Agnes Patemba confirmed the name after the court order had no name attached to it.

But Patemba has also indicated that the High Court will review the order made by the Magistrate court.

Meanwhile, Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) director Reyneck Matemba on Thursday morning submitted an application to the Blantyre High Court  for stay of the Zomba Magistrate Court order so that the arrest of FDH Financial Holdings chief executive officer Mpinganjira should still stand.

Matemba says the midnight court order confirm his fears “the judicial system is rotten”.

There is now legal expert opinion that suggest the magistrate erred in law by issuing the order.

Mpinganjira was released in the early hours of Thursday following the Zomba Magistrate’s Court order quashing the arrest warrant.

He was arrested in relation to the bribery of judges in handling the elections court case whose judgement.

Malawi is really gone to the Dogs. Corruption of highest order. Read the Bible Proverbs 29 Verse 4 typically expresses what is happening in Malawi. But remember, God being God, if we cry to Him nothing can stop Him to put this demonic evil to a halt. God Bless Malawi.

Chisakamile should not be penalised . corruption is the norm in the judiciary because they know no one will reprimand them. 75% of judges are corrupt including the chief justice. Khani za atumbuka sizipita kutali. If you do a head count, you will find out that the judiciary has 80 percent of people coming from the north. Before anybody says any stupid things here get the information and argue

All politicians are the same .Busy kukolana ndale basi.Anthu wamba mungolowerera ndi kuzelezeka nazo izi.Asiyeni maloya ndi majaji pa tchito yawo.Sukulu igwire ntchito.Fees ikugwira ntchito yake.

By the way, you people of Malawi, do you know the meaning of Mpinganjira? It means blocking the way. Those who have ears to hear let them hear.

We say violence is not an answer but what choice do we have now? The Executive body is corrupt. The Legislature is compromised. And now even our Judiciary is captured. What else can we do now other that use force?!?! They steal our taxes, steal our elections. ITS TOO MUCH
