Thugs get away with K10m from vehicle

Malawi Police in central region tobacco growing  district of Kasungu are looking for thieves who took away K10.5 million from a vehicle whose owner left the money to buy sacks.

Kasungu police spokesperson Harry Namwaza said businessman Andrew Kachande had just withdrawn the money from First Capital Bank and took away a small amount of money to buy the sacks and left the rest in the vehicle.

“He left the K10.5 million in a laptop bag but when he came back after buying the sacks, he discovered that the laptop bag and the money were missing. This is when he reported the matter to police,” said Namwaza.

Namwaza advised people carrying huge sums of money to ensure that they are not trailed, there is somebody taking guard if the money is left in a vehicle and wherever possible, seek police escorts.

  1. Only MEC can truly move with such huge sums of money nanga sizakuba to support vote rigging.

IF ONE HAD BETTER JOBS IN USA, UK OR GHANA WHY THEN DID YOU COME TO SUCH PEACEFUL COUNTRY OF DULL AND COWARDS CITIZENRY LEAD BY GOATS ZITATHA KUCHEKA MATABWA HENCE MW IS NOW IN PROBLEMS.

  2. Upon my analysis, it can be true that the man had 10.5mk. The man must be a tobacco vendor and he was going to buy tobbacco in the village. E-money does not work in this case.

  3. This is a wake up call to the citizenry of this country. Please use electronic cards to avoid laundering around with such huge sums of money. It’s high time we stopped the culture of keeping lots of liquid money in our homes too. For car owners, please do not leave valuable properties in your un attended to cars to avoid opportunists breaking into.

  4. This is very bad but did he need 10.5m cash for? its time our financial institutions emphasised on electronic transactions
