Some Malawi activists pen ICC over HRDC, opposition ‘crimes against humanity’

Some rights activists say they have reported the opposition and Human Rights Defenders Coalition (HRDC) to International Criminal Court for alleged crimes against humanity.

Unandi (left) and Mvula:Pen ICC

The letter requests the International Criminal Court (ICC) to investigate Malawi Congress Party (MCP) president Lazarus Chakwera, UTM president Saulos Chilima and HRDC officials Timothy Mtambo and Gift Trapence with crimes against humanity.

“We write this letter to you to inform the ICC and the rest of the world that acts of violence and direct and indirect rights abuses are escalating in Malawi in a guise of exercising human rights,” says the letter in part.

The letter blames Chakwera, Chilima, Mtambo and Trapence for violence during the anti-Jane Ansah demonstrations.

The letter has been signed by Fryson Chozi, Unandi Banda, Luther Mambala, Ms. Carol Mvalo, Peter Mumba, Emily Banda, Bright Kampaundi, Phillip Kamangira, Kulimbamtima Chiotcha, Mervin Nqumayo and Moses Chione.

Some Malawians have taken up in various social media platforms to condemn and bash the prights activists accusing them of being on the government ‘pay roll’ which they have dismissed.

  1. First on the list of crimes against humanity is the First Lady and Judith Chimulirenji blowing Mk80M onashopping spree to UK while mothers and children are dying in Malawi hospitals due to lack of the basic necessities………….how about that ??? Mwatiyamba dala

  2. All nonsense.who caused all this should be the one to be reported .ansah and muthalika.civil servants are not paid because muthalika used billions to bribe ansah to rig votes ,so stop the nonsense

  3. Desperate times call for desperate measures. This is a sign that DPP is very scared of what the Malawi public is doing. Look at all the measures most of which really look desperate and not well thought through. Malawians have really put the DPP government on a back foot. It is unprecedented to see how desperate they are acting to silence Malawians. It is also interesting to see how much Malawians have learnt to fight for their freedom. This is the birth of a new Malawi.

  4. In case you don’t know, the ICC already knows what is going on in Malawi and they don’t need to be schooled by idiots like you. We know who Chozi and the likes of him; beneficiaries of DPP’s leftovers. In fact ICC judges are surprised that their colleague, a supreme court judge for that matter, has sunk so low as to be bribed by croocked party leadership to rig an election.

    In fact this greedy organisation should instead report APM to ICC for gross human rights violations and abuses, rather than Chakwera and Chilima.

  5. Do these goats have any idea about the definition of ‘crimes against humanity’? Where were they when 20 Malawian nationals were killed on July 20, 2011 by the DPP cadets in police uniforms?

  6. So these DPP crooks want to cash on these demonstrations?It is these types of provocations masterminded by the Nicholas Dausis behind the sins that anger demonstrators.In my view, these are the people to foot the cost of damages.Instead of critically addressing the issues at hand, it is really annoying for these people to be barking like mad dogs!It is wrong to think that International bodies can be fooled like DPP cadets!

  7. A MAMBALA KWANU KWA KAMBWIRI MUPITA LITI AKAKUONENI MAFUMU ANU A NYAU AJA AKUSOWANI.MN’GONO WANU MPHUZITSI UJA OSAMUPATSAKO CHOCHITA CHINA BWANJI AZINGOBWIRA CHOKO DAILY? ULI BUSY KUYANKHULA ZA ZIII MMALO MOKAVINA NYAU KWANU KUJA NZERU ZAKUTHERA IWE ETI?? THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO TO SILENCE CRITICS OF WHO ARE FUNDING YOU THIS IS MALAWI IT IS NOT FOR MAMBALA AND YOUR OTHER ASSORTED PEOPLE LIKE OBJECTS.GET OUT.

  8. koma ndalama zimapangitsa munthu pena kukhala chidzete……..zoona mwalandira ndalama nkumakalemba kalata….i tell you Kalata mwalembayi mwamuyika pa chiswe APM bcoz ICC izayamba kufufuza ma reasons for Demos, why is she not resigning, what happened during elections…..what did the police do to Buleya and Albinos, ……..

    Again it seems mwangotumidwa kupanga zimenezi coz you dont even know za humanity. Nobody was killed, Police were instructed to deal with criminals during Demos but instead amathawa, ena kumaonelera…….

  9. come on guys, you are not serious. Do you really understand crimes against humanity? I am not even a law expert but am shocked with your decision to bring the demos to ICC. please don’t musatichititse manyazi. The issue is MEC chairperson not wanting to resign even though her position is now untenable. I hear she is a high court Judge but can’t she judge the situation?
    I were her, l would resign from the moral point of view, even though from the legal point of view, have not been found guilty. I cannot understand, she is waiting for court to decide. pali nzeru pamenepa? What l am seeing here is a game of politics, at the expense of poor malawians. DPP is also taking advantage of the situation. How they wish if there was more destruction of property so that they continue blaming those who are grieving and then DPP scoring political mileage.

  10. LUTHER MAMABALA. I did not expect a whole President for TRADE UNIONS to act so foolishly. You’re not a true COMRADE MR Mambala. SHAME ON YOU.

  11. But this won’t yield anything and my question says: why didn’t you report about those murders of people with albinism?.Do you want to tell us that destruction of properties is a worse than killing of albinos? and whose job is to provide security for people and their properties? HRDC, CHILIMA OR CHAKWERA?.If you guys were true human activits, you would have reported Police for failing to provide enough protection to its Citizens.You are really stupid and corrupt activits who deserve resignation.

  12. Don’t embarrass yourself because of ignorance because you have not travelled, strike in some countries go nasty that what is happening in Malawi is a tip. But they dont pen ICC for trash.

  13. YOU WILL NEVER WIN WE ARE MALAWI WE FEAR NO EVIL WE HAVE RIGHT TO DEMOS WHAT WE KNOW IS WE HAVE DPP CAMP FOR CADETS AMENE AKUGWILITSIDWA NTCHITO KUSOKONEZA SOME OF THEM ITS YOU MUKUFUNA MUDZIKHUTITSA MIMBA ZANU MKUMAPONDELEZA CHILUNGAMO MWAUPONDA MUUZENI JANE ANSA ZIMENEZO NOT AMALAWIFE YOU ARE A STUPID FOOL

  14. Shame on you DPP cadets masquerading as activits. What kind of activism are you doing? Who are you trying to protect? We know these stupid mercenaries are just to align their pockets with the DPP, nothing else. Fryson Chodzi ndi anzawo aKampaundi ntchito yawo ever since ndikuteteza DPP led government basi. Everybody knows that they earn their living through that. I am surprised that even Unandi Bandi has joined the cadets. Ndalama yavutadi padziko pano.

  15. do yu think yu can threaten Mtambo, Chilima and CHAKWERA, bkoz they are going ask the main cause of the problem and ukoko ku ICC straight they are going to punish ANSAH , Pakakhala pa chichewa timati dpp ndi osumawo azitchelera msampha okha

  16. Iwe Hule Kulimbantima Chiotcha ndi agalu azinzakowo musati bowepo apa! cant you critically look at major problems Malawi is facing other than kumangolubwa lubwa za ziii coz you are on dpp’s payroll. mxiiiii mwandinyansa kwambiri agalu inuu!

  18. Awa ndi anthu odana ndi chilungamo.asiyeni mmene alembera ICC.akuwona ngati ICC ndi agent wa DPP eti…Muziwona chaka chake ndi chino.Kodi zithuzi kumaziwerenga kaye osmangokhala ndi dyera ndi ndalama.Mwayiwara just monday lomweli timakamba za Madam president kuwononga E80,000 and news was all over the world(onse anawerenga ndi kumva) ndiye mukuwona ngati a ICC ndi mbuli inu azeru,kuti sakuva mmene a DPP akusokonezera Dziko lino.Ma Cadets ku blantyre ali ndi mipeni simunapange lipoti bwanji?.apolice anampha chigandanga choganizilidwa kumpha alubino nanga.

Panya panu nonse amene mwasainila zopusazo because all you want to see is the poor remain poor, the voiceless remain silent. Ndinu zitsilu ndamene akutumani omwewo. Be reminded that this is a revolution that no one can stop. Just wait and see what will happen after the court rulling since we know theres no justice in malawian courts already, munya muona.

    1. Mmutu mwakomo muli zengo zokwanira koma ?pali nkhani ya albino apa?koma munthu ukakhala otsutsa umatsutsa chili chose ngat ambuye ako achakwera ndi achilima , munaluza zisankho muluzaso ndi mulandu omwe Dpp ikuvaya basi until 8084 ,iwe zoti makhothi ose amakhala a boma sudziwa zimenezo?nde bomalo akulamula ndindani Mesa ndi APM.chisoni otsutsa

    1. The good thing about motives driven by money and greed, they are easily noticed, are empty and not have impact at least at the international level.

  20. koma anthu ena mukutimvetsa chisoni bwanji kodi DPP ikumakupatsani zingati moti inuyo zonse zikuchitikazi simukutha kuona kuti chisankho chinaberedwa? Mbuzi za anthu.Ngati mukudana ndi ma DEMO tell Jane Ansah to resign apo biii ma demo sitisiya agalu.

  21. do yu think that can solve the problem, apo ndiye wachita even the whole world knows that elections were rigged 2 if the demonstrations were not peace who is to blame its the police and the govt ndiye musanalembe zinthu kumaganiza kaye

  22. Who exactly is this idiot by the name Fryson Chozi? He is ever in the news to fight successful Malawians. John Unandi Banda has lost the salt in him. He is no longer relevant to the political equation in Malawi. Unandi has sold his principles to the devil. ICC is not composed of fouls like a gang of thugs who have signed this letter. Did they act on Bingu when he killed 20 people? There are Diplomatic missions in Malawi who are following the current events. If ICC were to take action both Jane Ansah and the president will be part of the accused.

  23. These so called activists are bad news and a shame to Malawi. The ICC only deals with war crimes and genocide. They ought to know this.

  24. Message to Sir IG Rodney Jose jane ansah sins are not political as you claim they are criminal in nature: allowing tippex results, failure to produce and submit same results for malawians and the court to see if it was fraudulent , missing ballot papers . by now mr jose you should have arrested Mec official their actions are against electral law. but no you quiet no wonder others are labelling you as DPP cadets. have you made any arrest on torching of utm vehicles , cadets who were beating protesters at shoprite while a group of your policemen were just washing it had to take MDF to calm the situation and your boys we4e chased by mdf for standing like pillars , negligency no wonder you have said you have failed .. TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT POLICE IMAGE IS IN A MESS , INSIDE A DUSTBIN. IT WILL TAĶE YEARS TO BUILD IT AND YOU JOSE AND YOUR TEAM ARE NOT HELPING MATTERS

  25. Nice work by cadets trying harder to stop the tippex govt and ansah from falling. but it wont work. similar to jose letter, fake PAC, Fake hired women demos, MBC propaganda….. same cadets in different uniform..

  26. If we had intelligence in Malawi they should have known about the conspirancy that Ntambo, Chakwera and Chilima have planned. These people are not for anything good but they aim to make this country ungovernable. They have recruited thugs to beat people. burn houses including stage burning of their own buildings just to frame the DPP. this is a continuation from the killing of people with albinism that they conducted prior to elections all aimed at tarnishing government.

    1. Such a stupid maroon without brain..Shame on you with your comment.Its so pathetic no wonder our country is not going forward with idiots like you

  27. String the ICC into this and only one party stands to lose: DPP. You are undermining your own interests by involving the ICC you dpp cronies. You really are pathetic dunderheads. Keep tying that rope around your neck.

  28. DEAR FAKE ACTIVISTS ;
    WHERE WERE/ARE YOU WHEN NTABA AND PETER WERE/ ARE SELLING ALBINO BODY PARTS IN OUR COUNTRY ?? HAVE YOU INCLUDED THAT IN YOUR LETTER OR YOU WIILL WRITE A SEPARATE ONE ??? YOU ARE REMINDED TO ACT ON THINGS AFFECTING MALAWIAN NATION AS A WHOLE WITHOUT BIAS OR FAVOURITISM OF ANY SORT

    1. Fake activists please, Malawi is independent as such we have our own courts. we dont need ICC. Icc for what? This is not the era of colonialism; we can manage to persecute people like Jane Ansah, Apm and Jose own our own without the involvement of ICC.

      I understand you are writing this nosense because you are indeed on Dpp payroll.

  29. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 get that blue money before it disappears. I respect your hustle 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

  30. A mervin dyera sili zakutherani. Kandalama mwalandira kwa mvuwa kaunda kaja kameneka. Nakuwuzani kuti musapange nawo apa ndi izi muli mu newspaper tsopano. Palibeso chaphindu chomwe mumapanga nazo ndalamazi mukalandira. Udzafa nphawi Mervin

  31. Apa ndiye timati kutitengera kokatiyetsa ife a Malawi inu mkulemba zoputsazi.

    Tikuziwa kuti u are planning bad things so u want to blindfold the whole world in advance that it’s not u.

    You killed already 6 presiding officers within short time after election so who commit crime against humanity btwn U and HRDC???

  32. These activists, who have informed the ICC of the atrocities being perpetrated at the behest of MCP and UTM and their so-called leaders, are the true heroes protecting our rights and constitution in this country.
    Elections were won fair and square, and dusted; now let the Courts interpret the laws, rather than the so-called opposition hold the nation hostage, under the pretense of Atibela. Just a back door access to the seat of power. Asa!
    This is only a first shot across the bow. If the irresponsible demos continue, and the nation burns more, then MCP and UTM will have to face up.

  33. Congratulations ‘Lefts’ activists! Where were you when the then ‘Bingu-DPP’ led govt. authorized the massacre of over 20 protesters on 20th July, 2011.? And University student Chasowa? The list goes on. Anyway you have done your ‘lefts’ selves a great favour. Now you qualify to send your individual bank account details to D…..and you will receive a ‘thank you’ EFT.

  34. Crimes against humanity? Let us wait how ICC will respond to your request. Did get this advice from jane Ansah

  35. This is a correct action. Bravo! This group of enemies of the people, odzikonda, nkhutukumve, ambanda, adyera, mbava must be brought to book immediately.

  36. Whites will laugh at these peoples and describe them as insane. The western tradition is to resign when the society discovers that the leaders have messed up with the job.

  37. Good riddance andikwana a china Mtambowa we didn’t vote for them but everyday masquarading as if we voted for them.

  38. Did you idiots pen ICC to report DPP for crimes against the 20 demonstrators or did you report the DPP for crimes against Njaunju, Chasowa, and Albinos?

  39. Showing umbuli wawo and exposing themselves to ICC. They do not know that they are actually exposing the DPP regime, cadets and the Police Brutality. In fact they know what is going on already in ICC and have even the information which they think is secret. Koma a DPP apanika and of course in the process making mistakes that even expose themselves; you have been exposed and are even exposing yourself, implicating Profesa apa kkkkkkkkkk.
