Dowa Police Public Relations Officer Richard Kaponda has identified the deceased as Foloman Pitison who hanged himself to the roof of his house.

According to Kaponda, Pitison’s mother told police that he was involved in a fight with his friend over a memory card and that she thinks that is the reason why her son hanged himself to death.

“The deceased borrowed a memory card from a friend and formatted everything. This angered the owner who threatened to beat him if he failed to give back the memory card with everything inside,” said Kaponda.

  161. May his soul rest in peace. I wonder what people outside Malawi will say about our country. It’s a disgrace as if we are still living in dark ages whereby one will not know that formatting a memory card un knowingly can not be an issue worth for one to committing sucide

    1. We should not always do things in relation to what the other countries are saying….we nred to build Malawi basing on our consciousness and other aspects that we see fit.
