Human rights activists have faulted the Malawi government for its policy of jailing illegal immigrants.
The condemnation comes soon after reports in the media that Malawi locked up 119 Ethiopian illegal migrants in its prisons.
According to a local non-governmental organisation, Centre for Human Rights Education, Advice and Assistance (Chreaa), the Ethiopian migrants were detained at Maula, Dedza, and Ntchisi prisons in central Malawi.
The centre’s executive director Victor Mhango told the media on Tuesday that the number of migrants in the country is worrying.
“The number keeps changing with each passing day as a week hardly passes without arresting these illegal migrants. These are all Ethiopians,” he said.
According to the Malawi Human Rights Commission, in 2014 Malawi arrested 702 illegal immigrants and in 2015, 707 illegal immigrants were arrested.
While the lucky ones were deported, others ended up in prisons. Mhango said many illegal migrants were arrested in the northern part of Malawi but he sympathises with the Ethiopians who have been detained for about two years now.
Recently, government officials told the media that the government is keeping the illegal foreigners in jail in good faith and has no funds to deport them at the moment.
They also promised to deport all those jailed as soon as funds are available.

I wish these activists could come out strong on a very crucial issue affecting safety and even loss of lives on the side of our beloved brothers and sisters with albinism first then these other issues follow.
Foolish NGOS. Can u enter any country illigally?

illegal immigrants, that’s it,ILLEGAL. They must face the law. Everybody knows mw is a poor country and our priorities are elsewhere.
Are you trying to impress you financiers (Donors) that you are working tirelessly fighting for their rights. Stop this rot guys! our relatives are victimized at Rindeilla Prison in South Africa yet none of the human rights bodies be it here or there came out to accuse their govt let alone suing it. Mwatani kodi?
Aaa ndiye mpaka 2 years kundende ngati ndi akuba?3 months is enough ndipo ngati pa 3 months po ndrama yowatumizila kwao mulibe osakawaika ku ma camp bwanji?amalawi mwatani kodi?satana ali mwainu ndi woopsatu ndipo mwavuta naye..inu mutagwidwa kwa eni ndikukakuponyani ndende ngati zanuzo munganve bwanji?ndipo dzikolo ndi la yehova namalenga lekani kuzunza ana amulungu popeza chilango chanu mkachilandila kumwamba

Relocate them in refuge camps not a jail.
Thats why i always say these activists r dull in their heads,i don’t know what do they want in their activism,don’t they know how our fellow citizen r treated in other cntries?did they or do they say anything?do they know where these strange things,abduction of albinos z from?for their information do they know that its only in mw where foreigner enjoys freedom if any right?to hell these bastards.
Malawi doesn’t have proper facilities 2 keep some1 in the cell for a long time. Ngati wa polisi ndi amakè akugona ndi njala ndiye akatsekela munthu amudyetsa chiyani? Ngati azibale awogwira munthu alibe bulangeti kumudzi kawo munthu amugwilayo amufunditsa chiyani?
Arresting a person to protect ur nation is a wise thing but there are always terms and conditions 2b followed. The procedure states a certain period of time tht after such a period a person must be deported. Due 2 lack of funds foreigners are kept so long in the fells under hunger and poor conditions.
Being a foreigner does not mean tht u are a criminal or a slave. People leave their countries coz of various reasons 2 seek green pastures in other countries. Not all are criminals, if government can’t manage 2 deport them then why keeping them in jail?Free them coz they are also human beings who need fresh air.
So why these fuck human rights they keep quit about malawians who stay in lindela , they stay there long tym and there many malawian , what is special of these ethiopians? They must arrested all ,other we gonna cum there to deal with them ,,, continue arrest them so that they must have documents also lyk us
Good activist! We r all one guys lets just keep them to their refgee camps not jailing them. But dont toralate them to b wondering around!
Chomwe lalakwa boma ndi chiyani? Kodi inu ndi aja mukuwalowetsa muno eti?

Human Rights bodies are right on this issue. Proper procedures have to be followed; i call upon the government of Malawi to look into this issue with the seriousness it deserves.
