Police have resolved to meet organisers of November 23 demonstrations which are aimed at pushing the Police to arrest suspects connected to the mysterious death of Malawian of Rwandan origin, Emmillie Halimana Noel.

A letter from the Lilongwe District Commissioner Lawford Palani indicates that the MPS wants to have a meeting with the organizers of the peaceful demonstrations.

“As advised in the meeting, the Malawi Police Service is willing to have an engagement with you before you hold demonstrations. The meeting will take place any day you will agree with the MPS,” reads the letter from the DC.

The District Commissioner has also indicated that his office will facilitate the meeting through provision of logistics.

Initially the concerned citizens gave the police seven days to address bottlenecks surrounding the mysterious death of Emmillie Halimana Noel but upon the lapse of the ultimatum, the grouping resolved to go for peaceful demonstrations slated for November 23.

It will be known if the arrangement to protest will continue after the planned dialogue between the police and the representatives of the concerned citizens in the name of Wales Khama, Cynthia Chikalema and Esther Kubwalo.
