A court in Limbe has refused to move a case of a police officer implicated in raping a 17-year-old girl at a police station, to Blahtyre magistrates court.
The Limbe Magistrate Court has dismissed the application by the State to move a case against Andrew Chigaga, the police officer alleged to have defiled the girl saying the state did not give convincing reasons.
On January 27, 2020, the state asked the court to move the case to the Blantyre Magistrate Court where the suspect can get a stiffer punishment when convicted.
However, Magistrate Tsoka Banda, who is hearing the case, dismissed the application saying the State did not give valid reasons to convince the court to move the case to another court.

Kodi ndiye izinso ndiye ziti? Onse a Mcp okuba, onse a UDF okuba, onse a Dpp okuba. This is just the way of Afrikans. All of the para statals in Malawi are actually political cash ventures. A MCP Ayiwala kuti anka ikhana okha okha mu ma company now you want kumusaka Mr. Chiwaya kuti mulowetesepo yanu yosakwana. Fotseki pitani katuseni ma Bumbu a azimanu. A chiten surrender ma passport kuti chani? As if anyamba kuba ndi iyeyo. If people are forefeiting then ayambe cecilia kadzamira. OSATI NYEGAPO NDI YA 2 INCHES. Bring us the real criminals.
