Women under attack in Karonga over ‘provocative clothes’
Civil rights groups are up in arms against some people who are attacking women and girls in Karonga for wearing miniskirts among others.
Reports say some traditional leaders in the district are behind the attacks as they say such dressing promotes promiscuity, defilement and early pregnancies among girls.
The women are harassed and in some instances undressed.
The Coalition for the Empowerment of Women and Girls (Cewag) executive director Beatrice Mateyu has since asked the police to arrest those harassing the women.
“The women rights are being infringed. The Constitution gives the women the right to dressing the way they want,” she said.
She said there was need for the men in Karonga to be sensitized on rights issues.

Shame on u. We got the right to dress the way we want, what ashame .are u animals
Please just lock them up, they are worse than their cats and dogs. If they can hold their faeces until they reach the toilet or the bush, like wise they can control their sexual urges. Women did not ask them to twist thier minds with alcohol and pornography… sick heads!!
Are these men or monkeys? No self control, no discipline?
wow
Dressing goes with environment,
PLEASE WOMEN /GIRLS RESPECT YOURSELVES —-
Potless
The problem is not the way women dress, but the inability of some men to control themselves. It is a contradiction to show ones objection to the way women dress by using it as an excuse to undress them. Men are the problem, not the women.
True
inability of women to dress proper enables men to control proper. I can see a problem causing a problem.
“Dressed the way they want,” I don’t agree to that. What if us men we walk naked, will you not arrest us?
We are the image if God. If one of God’s attribute is nakedness, these women are right.
No one walks neked bwana Chikangawa. The ladies are dressed but. Not worthy anything.
I am salivating………
Village girls yooo what’s that
We are in the last days please understand this thing of the world .
