Protesters strip naked Malawi CID female cop 

Protesters on Tuesday strip naked a female police officer in Lilongwe, an incident which has drawn condemnation from rights activists.

Protesters strip naked female police officer

The Criminal Investigations Department (CID) officer was in civilian clothes among the protesters when she was spotted and identified by some of the anti-Jane Ansah demonstrators.

The protesters accused her of being a spy, saying she was taking details of those involved in the demos.

Sensing danger, she started running away when some of the violent protesters overrun and over powered her, beat her up before leaving her literally naked.

A Malawi Defence Force (MDF) soldier rushed to the scene, took a man’s shirt which he clothed the woman police officer.

Women rights activists Faustace Chirwa and Emily Banda have since condemned the action by the protesters.

Chirwa said people’s anger over Ansah’s mishandling of the election results should not lead to the victimization of women.

  1. Peter Mutharika should end all these demos by dismissing Jane Ansah, period. All what is happening in Malawi is because of the selfishness of Mutharika and Jane Ansah.. We shouldn’t bit about the bush, Jane mismanaged the 2019 elections by allowing tippex to erase the truth ….

  3. Ngati ma demo ndi achilungamo mukudana ndi a CID chifukwa chani? Mukufuna muziba mwaufulu mbava inu. Alesi osowa chochita. Anthu opanda masomphenya ngati inu. Munthu wamasomphenya amalemekeza masomphenya anzake. Kuononga katundu wamunthu wina ndikupanda masomphenya kumeneko ndikupanda umunthu.

    1. PEPA JOLOZA NKHANI NDIYOTI MAKOSANAWA ANANENA KUTI SAKWANITSA KUPELEKA CHITETEZO NDEKUPEZEKA PAKATI PANTHU MKUTIYAMBA DALA SECONDLY POLICE ILI UNDER DPP NOT MALAWIANS THEREFORE WE ARE AGAINST THOSE AGAINST US

      NGATI AKUFUNA MTENDERE AKHALE NEUTRAL NOT TO THIS TIPEX PRESIDENT WHO IS JUST QUITE AKUPWETEKETSANI SITIKUBWERELA M’MBUYO CHITSONGOLO TIKUPITA

  4. Kodi wapolisi sangapange nawo ma demo? She probably was there as a private citizen not on duty. Koma ngati inali in the line of duty she should sue the police for not giving her sufficient back up

  5. But why cannt the president suspend the MEC chair lady? Why should we pay all this cost because the president as the appointing officer is unwilling to suspend or dismiss her?

    This is unfair to those who bear the blunt impact of the infiltrators of the demos?

    1. Idiot. President has no powers so fire Ansah likewise ma Demo do not have powers to fire her. Many idiots like you thought that its easy to fire Ansah but its not. Mtambo wavomelezanso panopa ajufuna kuyeselera kutseka ma airport but will not yield anything. Its only the law that has power but without that no

  6. Only Ansah can solve this matter. If resigns then there will be no demonstrations. I would ask Mrs Ansah, please do the right thing, do not have more Malawians blood on your hands. Follow your conscious and not that of your masters who appointed you.

  7. You who called activists please dont mix things, she was stripped because people felt she was a cadet not a woman, how come the professional police woman like her go to the demonstrators to act as a spy, and I think this should be a lesson to other police officers, moyo sagula samalani ntchito at the same time samalani moyo.

  8. That is what happens when anger is high, you can’t control some one who is angry, and a person who is angry can do anything anytime. So this is it!!!

    1. Is this what you call human rights? Or is human right this time one sided?
      Breaking peoples things,stealing,and now stripping a woman?
      And you want these types of leaders to rule our country.
      The president is civilized…calm leader…it takes education and culture by leaving abroad to act rightfully this way…i solute him.
      Not babarians who are power hungry because they are bankrupt and full of ngongoli now they turn into violance….wish if it was mugabe…you would see the real africa…..

  9. She was in a plain clothes spying on people and some of them will be killed at night. She deserve what she got. This CID woman is heartless and brutal murderer that torment our people day and night. I just want to let these Mulhako wa Alomwe spys that Malawians are not afraid of you, and we will fight you by all means necessary. We know all these police and Peter Hitler Mutharika spys where they live, and we will deal with them accordingly. These CID are not serving the interests of Malawians but that of Peter Hitler Mutharika. The battle line have been drawn but at the end of the day Malawian people are going to win. We are millions and they are few. You can’t kill all of us, Alluta continuaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

  10. That is very sad indeed, that is uncalled for. These are our mothers, our sisters, our wives. Who can be happy when such a thing happens to one’s Mum, Sister, Wife or Daughter?? Its a sad situation indeed Ansah should consider that all these are happening in her name. On the other hand Police said that they dont have the capacity & what was she doing in the midst of the protesters?? ? CID in the midst of the protester??? Police visibility doesn’t need to be in a civilian that’s why people thought that she was a spy not that I’m condoning what happened. I cant wish it happen on someone else. But dont act like Cadets.

    1. Mahome you talk like someone who dropped from heaven. Be sensitive dont you have sisters wife and daughters. May be not yet.

  11. Zoputa dala izi, a police you feel like you are superior than the rest of Malawians, kumatumbwa kuma demo, at the end of the month kukalandila tima fifty kwacha ngati salary, yet mbuyanu APM yo angokugwiritsani nchito as puppets. Mwaziona ulendo uno ena atengerepo phunzilo, Kudos to all who stripped her naked! she has learnt it the hard way!

  12. This act orchestrated by Arafat and fake accent ex-reverend and their henchmen Mtambo and Trapence must be condemned in strongest terms and brought to the international attention. The lady police officer was simply doing her job. The faces of the perpetrators are clear in the pictures and must be duly brought to justice.

  13. I condemn the demonstrators for this barbaric act of stripping women naked. Its so stupid and also it is very stupid for the police to send plain clothed police for crowd control duties, Umbuli ku police too much, in crowd control, security personnel are always in uniform which is identifiable and visible to all, no way can someone be in plain clothes and say they are there for security in a crowd of thousands.

  14. Women, stop being stupid by demanding your rights everywhere, it just shows how weak you are even mentally. It doesn’t take an activist to understand that what happened had nothing with women rights. The same could have happened if the CID was a man; the protesters would have chased, beated and tore the clothes.

    1. Miopic thinking. You came from the very so called stupid woman . you were nursed by the very weak minded woman. What a shame

  15. Jane Ansah is a very woman. I am sure by now protestors should now know that she cunt resign. There is nothing beyond what has happened now that will make here resign or APM to fire her.

  16. mukumuputa Seodi alile misozi ya magazi.
    conde musalole abale anga kukugwilitsani ncito for the sake of freebees money.
    misonkho yathu yomwe yanu yomwe
