Malawi police please get these bastards behind bars…..no one should lose their life this way ever! make sure their prosecution is on TV and radio so others can learn from them!
The fact these witchdoctors always mention a relative to be the perpetrator should remind us that the devil is a lier
So the one’s who murdered this guy and burnt him to death are the good guys? Poor Malawians, still living in the dark ages. I bet after that they shared the guy’s possessions.

These so called Asing,”anga can create any story. I do remember that my grandfather who had a shop in our village was accused of using business Charm by a visiting witch doctor that he brought it from South Africa. My grand father told the so called witch doctor in the presence of the village chief that he had never travelled outside Malawi.
A Malawi Nsanje yachuluka.
