Renowned activist Ben Chiza Mkandawire has condemned Malawi media for not criticising Nyasatimes boss Thom Chiumia who raped a girl in United Kingdom (UK).
Chiumia raped the 17-year-old girl who was babysitting his two kids at his house last week. He was later arrested by police.
Writing on his Facebook page, Mkandawire noted that the girl Chiumia raped is currently taking drugs to protect her from being infected.
He then lashed out at the media for not condemning Chiumia.
“The child that was raped by Thom Chiumia has been put on ARVs for a month to protect her from being infected.
“Malawi media you are all complicit for failing to condemn Thom for this act.
“That little girl will be traumatised for the rest of her life, she has been exposed to danger and you are all quiet. Am not a saint, they say he without sin cast the first,” he said.
Reports show that Chiumia and his wife asked the girl to babysit their two children as they were going to an event.
But Chiumia left his wife at the event and went back to the house where he forced himself on the girl.

Eti inu…kkkkk
ok if you say media is silent then where did we get this infor normal people still condemn by atleast saying something on itq when commenting so you need somemore aaaaaaaa
The silence is not just over the lack of criticism of Chiumia. There is also silence about developments in the case. Is Chiumia still detained? Has he been charged, and if so with what alleged offence. I can find no answers on the internet to these questions. It needs the lazy Malawi media to get off it arm and do some digging for more details.
Mxwii
Hahahahahahaha
Let justice rule without favours,truth is like bullet from it can’t change direction if told and it doesn’t fear whether rich,poor,young old,able or disabled.
Yes, Nyasa Times is completely silent about this, and also refuses to post any comments of criticism against Balaam Bushiri. But then again, Malawi 24 just flat out lies about things. Like remember you published how Pastor Anderson is banned from Malawi yet there was no ban at all, or how SAA closed the Lilongwe flight but it didn’t, or how Julius Malema was banned from Malawi but wasn’t…
