Alliance for Democracy (AFORD) Vice President responsible for Operations Senior Comrade Timothy Pagonachi Mtambo says relocating detainees is a sign of violation of human rights.
Speaking in an exclusive interview with a local television,Luntha Mtambo said, “There is a purpose behind establishment of a police station, prison and court in each and every district of Malawi.”
“On what logic does government arrests
a fellow Malawian in Blantyre then relocates him/her to Lilongwe then sends him/her to Nkhotakota?”, wondered Mtambo.
Surprised Mtambo, “How do you think a wife or a husband or relatives can cheer and bring food? An infringement to access food, isn’t it? No communication between the victim and lawyers.”, said Mtambo.
The starry human rights activist further said, “My request is that government must understand that it is not a disorganised entity nor a criminal society. Why spending huge sums of government resources in terms of fuel and officers’ allowances just to move arrested ones from another district to another district. Why sending more than 26 police officers to arrest an activist! Are activists criminals?”, concluded Mtambo.
