The Centre for Human Rights and Rehabilitation (CHRR) has expressed worry over the killing of a 94-year-old man who was accused of witchcraft.
This follows brutal killing of Kenward Kumwenda in Karonga district over allegations that he was practising witchcraft.
An angry mob was reported to have taken away the life of Kumwenda on Monday over claims he killed his relative.
Reacting on the issue, CHRR has urged law enforcers to speed up investigations on the matter for justice to prevail.
Through a statement signed by CHRR Executive Director Timothy Mtambo, citizens have been urged to stop taking laws into their hands.
“We find it worrisome that in the country mobs that assume the role of judges, juries and executioners are steadily increasing,” reads part of the statement made available to Malawi24.
CHRR has since urged joint efforts to curb the practice that is blocking justice and taking away the right to life of victims.
For a while suspects are seen to have been torched for being suspected of various crimes.
Mwina ufiti ungachepeko mmm
Sibho guys n hmmm gogoz inakalamba baad mpaka 94yrs hmmm
sad
I think our country now is full of demons, coz if someone is very old that does not mean he or she is a witchcraft, and it seams that in our country these days the ones who call mob justice are more power than the police which is very bad, if the government doesnt take these things serious it will bacome worse in future
I don’t know why people are behaving like this:: most of them who are doing that the don’t have their own Parents so there Jealousy to those who has got Parents.
Exactly thats the point
Not only old ppo are wichcraft but wat we av to know umfiti ulipo ndipo anthu madera ena akusowa mtendere ndi khalidwe la umfiti chomcho lets look all side ithink ngat anafika pomupha umboni anali nawo kuti dalayo ndi mfiti i hate umfiti
Gutted. Disturbed. Saddened.
This shouldn’t just be verbally condemned, but these misinformed, excomunicated and barbaric culprits must face the law.
We should treat others the way we would like to be treated
