The incident occurred on Sunday 22nd January, 2017 in Blantyre town, and at meantime police are hunting for a third suspect who is currently on the run.

They broke into Super General Trading shop owned by Aijaz Khan.

 The suspects were using a one-tonne Mazda registration ZA 8447.

Wrong information. Malisawo was hired to transfer the stolen items from the hidden point (Kameza round about) to a house in Machinjiri area 1.
Malisawo never took part in the break in.
