Police arrest man over national IDs recording suspicion
Malawi Police in Zomba have arrested a man on suspicion that he was recording details of information from people’s national IDs.
This follows complaints from opposition politicians who claim that the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) was involved in the malpractice as way of rigging the forthcoming July Constitutional Court sanctioned presidential election.
Police have confirmed that they are questioning the man following suspicions that he was recording people’s National Identity Card numbers.
The incident happened Tuesday afternoon at Zomba Free Market.
Zomba Police Spokesperson, Patricia Supliano, said they were still investigating the matter.
This comes just days after similar issues arose in the Central Region, fueling riggings claims ahead of the forthcoming presidential elections.
Meanwhile, National Registration Bureau spokesperson Norman Fulatira says keeping someone’s national ID is an offence, according to Section 15 (1) of the National Registration Act.
NRB has since urged the public to report to police or any nearest NRB office anyone found collecting people’s national IDs.
The Malawi Congress Party claim similar things are also happening in the north.

He was taking their ID numbers in order to process their MEDEF loan. Kodi inu a opozishoni bwanji khunyu?
That’s your lie to Malawians. Just accept kuti zinthu zakuvutani a DPP. Since you know you can no longer use tippex mwati muyambe kugula ma ID. Mugwidwa nonse. This is a spiritual war and the evil DPP can never win this war.
Is he a MEDEF Employee? Can MEDEF come forward and clarify this. Does this guy have any identification showing that he is working for MEDEF ?
You have evil spirit that makes you to shamelessly try to defend evil
Poor soul…. in deep shit now for things you were just sent…
Who has said its DPP? Read carefully unless you are quoting those new childish MCP spokespersons, Bendulo and his team.

Please it is Flee Market not Free Market

ITS NOT EVEN FLEE MARKET BUT FLEA MARKET EISH
Unless you are grossly illiterate or damn stupid, why should you surrender an important document like an ID to a person you don’t know?
What the opposition must do is to intensify civic education to sensitise the general public, particularly in the Centre, that surrendering your ID is as good as selling your vote.
