Southern Region Police Spokesperson Nicholas Gondwa said Police has launched an investigation but they have pressed murder charge.

“Chisi has been charged of murder but an investigation has been launched on the incident. He has been questioned but psychiatric expert will also assess his mental health,” said Gondwa.

Chisi fatally shot his sons in the early hours of Friday at his home in Blantyre’s low-density Sunny Side suburb after a family quarrel.

According to Gondwa,  Chisi, and Station Officer for Chichiri Prison – one of Malawi largest prison facilities, was still in bed Friday morning when his 23-year-old son, Stanford, picked a quarrel with his sister, Lusungu.

He said Chisi took a metal bar to try to separate the quarrelsome children but Stanford wrestled it out of him.

This angered the father who went to his bedroom to take the gun which he shot fatally his son twice.

The police publicist said still raging with fury Chisi went to the store-room where his eldest son, Russell, 29, was working. He shot him dead too.

  9. being a prision boss he knows how people are suffering in there.more especially chichiri prision.he can not just do the killing ndiye kuti this man anatopa ndi zomwe amadusamo i’ve seen ana omamenya bambo ao.imagine if you have tiana like aki na papal,i totally agree with the investigation.may be the investigation could have been done first before being judged.

  11. If you are 29 years old and you are still living with your parents, something is wrong with you. Even birds fly off the nest of their parents and live an independent life.

  13. The problem is many parents are struggling with unruly children. they are being victimized in their own houses but the world stand aside and look without any help. Zikachitika izi that’s when suddenly we all have wisdom to judge. Malawi should clearly define some laws against these kinds of unruly behavior maybe in future we might avoid a repetition of this tragedy.

  14. As one of the parents who have had sons who are troublesome or call criminals I am wearing the shoes of Mr. chisi. Chili pa nzako chigwire nyanga. Mr Chisi’s tolerance has for quite a long time been stretching and had reached its capacity and could not stretch any more. He wanted to deal with the problem he has had for a long period of time once and for all.
    Those who conderm him are like the activists who champion the rights of the way-raiders burglars and thieves because they have never been attached. But to those who have been the victims know better and in depth how ruthless they are. What I mean is Mr Chisi is the only person who can tell how trouble some his children were. I be to differ when some pple can call a 29 year old man can be a still under his fathers roof.
    His age mates are married and father of two or three children. He is a disgrace.

  15. azimai mumalimba. mzimbambo wonyasa chomchiyu mumakhala naye bwanji. kumafunda naye bulangeti limodzi. uyudi nde ndi mtumbuka. nkhope imeneyi ndipake kukhala wakupha anthu

  16. nde mtumbuka ameneyo.kulephera kulanga ana koma kutukwana ana a anthu ena,akatopa
    amangoyamba kupha ngati nkhuku.I GUESS THIS MAN IS FROM TUMBUKA CLAN NAPEPE.Ana oyaluka amasautsa

  20. A Chisi chiwanda chakupha chinakulowani, bwanji osadzipha nokha kuti anawo asale. I think now he is regretting atenga nsambi. Mtendere muntima mwawo mulibe. God forgive us, parents lets think twice before taking action when we angry with our children. killing your owner blood is sad.

  22. Instead of avoiding danger between his children, Mr Chisi caused more danger by killing his two sons like chickens. What a bad father and a Tumbuka by tribe.
    God will judge him

    1. Ndipo iwe Chatonda ukundikumbusa za Mai Bakuwa wa tavern amene wayikisa ana a eni pa danger ya HIV iye kumalemela ana kumatenga matenda. Mai amaneyu kaya ntundu wake ndi chiyani kaya?

  34. This story is just in parts. But actually what happened is that these boys were notorious. The 29 year old was employed to work at the same prison but had to resign just to be staying with the father. Their mother died of BP due to the same children. Now the father was tired keeping thugs in the house. After he killed them, searching they were found with chamba in their pockets ans some more mifani were found in their bedroom. Indeed its bad to kill however the dad had to get rid of them as one day he could also die of BP due to these two sons

  35. 29 years still kunyambita phala la ana pakhomo la makolo? big man inakwiya nanu malemu inu

  37. U don’t know what it takes for one to be a prison boss it means he has gone through a lot and ana osayamika amenewo and what was a 29 years old man not boy doing at home

  53. The guy looks like a hard core criminal, maybe because he has been associating with criminals for considerable time. Cell zake zomwe akagonepo yekha. prison authorities, please send him to zomba maximum prison or maula not chichiri, angakakhale mofewa ndi ma juniors ake.

  56. Walikuvichita makola vyana vikawa vyakusuzga ivi, kuleka ntchito kusuzga wapapi fotseki, at age 29 still staying with parents, realy?

  58. Comment he is a fool,he could have find another way rather than killing his own children

  67. Tafufuzani bwino mwina abambowo amagona ndi Mwana wake wamkaziyo ndiye anyamatawo zimawanyasa that’s why anachita zimenezo

  69. the problem is that most of people inhabiting Blantyre city are thugs and murderers. That’s why most of ugly sins take place there. It starts with people in the DPP through Bullets supporters, vendors and individual thieves and thugs, what a shame!!!!!!

  78. When aging children continue to reside with their parents in the same home is a recipe for tragedy. Aging children tend to challenge the father’s authority and the father in humiliation tend to strike back in a tragic way. Remember the Marvin Gaye shooting by his father in America? We should raise our children so well that they should leave home at an appropriate time to become responsible citizens.

  81. tanva kare izi atumbuka atikwana pitani mukadye manyi chioneni kukamwa kunyasa anthu oipa atumbuka nsete zanu

  85. Its really a heartbreaking incident, just a fulfilment of Gods word dat in the last days pple will be arogant, not being able to controll themselves [from anger,lust etc] but woe to you if you are in the shoes of judas iscariot….lets seek the face of God in every situation that avails itself unto us.
