Malawi maintains that it will not impose death penalty for fear of human rights institutions
Malawi government has disclosed that it will not implement the death sentence in fear of humiliation by international human rights institutions that include the Amnesty International which is also in the forefront against the killing of people with albinism.
The development comes at a time when some stakeholders are calling for the maximum sentence to people found guilty of murder in the country.
The stakeholders argue that death sentence can help in putting down barbaric acts of killing people with albinism in the country
But government spokesperson Patricia Kaliati said Malawi has its signature on various human rights instruments that forbids death penalty.
Kaliati added the country wants to put itself away from criminal cases even though some citizens think death penalty will help stop the killings of people with albinism in Malawi.
One of the advocates for death sentence is Paramount Chief Lundu who said the maximum sentence will help in bringing peace to people with albinism in the country.
Meanwhile, Mulanje South Member of Parliament Elias Bon Kalindo is set to parade in his birthday suit to force government to have death sentence being practical in Malawi.
The nude parade has been scheduled to take place on June 23 in the capital Lilongwe to force lawmakers to reinstate death sentence.

Kikkkk dont we knw kikkkk without them we finsh so lets respect them
Even if you say they will be killed as long as there is mention of money people will go all the way to commit these henious crimes.I think the best punishment is to ampute them without anaehesia so that they should have a feel of what it takes to kill somebody
If this would be done in a public place people would learn
and the gvmt is stupid coz they allow ppl to kill ppl for nothing like alibinol and the like kamuzu anapanga fundo yachilungamo kuti aphedwe nude njila yabwino anthu anapanga mantha ku amapanga zausilu ngati zimenezi
Malawians let us put our trust in God rather than in politicians since their mission is to stay in power for 3 things: KUPHA, KUBA NDI KUONONGA.

Our Govn needs to stop sleeping and starting strategising concerete methods to kii poverty. This is the main reasom people have come up with to poaching others for their wealthy. Failing to do so, dealth penalty wont bring anything rather conflicts from other donor countries and of course human rights bodies. Our leaders are just there to boost their pockets and not improve welfare of Malawi.
It must pass death penalty into law
