Police arrest former MCP MP over sexual assault charges
Malawi Police Service in Mchinji have arrested a former Malawi Congress Party (MCP) Mchinji south parliamentarian for indecent assault.
Mchinji police officer-in-charge Owen Maganga has confirmed the arrest of Jerome Waluza and said he would appear in court on Tuesday.
The former Malawi Boxing Association (Maba) president is alleged to have invited girls between 12 and 15 in his bedroom where they were watching porno whilst touching them in their private parts on Friday.
“The mother of the girls sent the girls to collect rentals from the former parliamentarian but instead of giving them the money, he invited them into his bedroom where he was touching their private parts whilst watching pornography,” said Maganga.
Maganga alleged that Waluza then sent some of the girls out to market, and told one girl whom he continued to touch her private parts as they watched porno.
“The girls returned and found that the suspect continued to touch the 12-year-old girl. He gave the girl K2, 000 so that she could not leak out this to other people,” Maganga said.
The police officer-in-charge said the girls reported the matter to their mother, 41-year-old Judith Maxwell who immediately reported the issue to police.
He said the police acted swiftly and arrested Waluza.
Waluza was member of parliament from 2009 to 2014
I always pray that when MCP takes over govt this May 2019 please promote Dr George Kainja to IG. He will sweep the Police service and bring back the glory of this country. He should be deputized by Luhanga as deputy IG. this country will move forward in as far as Home Affairs security is concerned.

LOST CASE THE DEFENDANTS CAN NOT PROVE BEYOND REASONABLE DOUBT THAT THE MAN INDEED DID THIS UNLESS THEY FILMED THE SHOW. ITS DIFFERENT FROM HAVING SEX WITH THEM WHICH CAN SOMETIMES BE PROVED THE HOSPITALS BUT TOUCHING KKKKKKKKK ZOSEKESA ZEDI
It’s not funny at all! I agree with you that it will be hard to convict the suspect based of the facts you have correctly mentioned BUT you are categorically off when you say “ndizoseketsa.” It’s not funny! It’s sad, it’s infuriating, it’s uncalled for – But this is not funny at all!
Limma I don’t know how old you are but you sound to be uncivilised. Imagine the gal in question was your daughter. Such stupid thinking is common on Malawian men who think that women are objects. Wake up and smell the coffee bru. The world is changing.
Jwa, I think you need to re-read my post. I don’t think you have grasped what I am saying. You have completely missed what am saying.
Mwana wa 12 years ayi wachepa amanunkha mikozo
Wina ndi iwe. So so uncivilised thinking.
Bwanji simunammange katsaira ndi mnzake ng’ambi ? Uyu poti ngwathu
Wa kongilesi eeeti ?
Why rush arresting him without investigating the allegation first the way you do to investigate the cadets when they beat up oppositions supporters? Useless police service.
That’s too bad for someone who used to a lawmaker and looking at the age of the girls .Lamulo lipo walipeza bas!!
