Malawi opposition leader set to appear in court
The National Coordinator of the Malawi Human Rights Defenders Coalition (HRDC) is calling for transparency and adherence to legal protocols in the arrest of Patricia Kaliati. Kaliati, the Secretary General of the opposition United Transformation Movement (UTM) party, was arrested and detained last Thursday without charge. A police statement said she was arrested on suspicion of conspiring with two others to commit a felony. In their latest statement issued on Saturday, the police said Kaliati will appear in court on Monday. HRDC National Coordinator Kelvin Chirwa tells VOA’s James Butty, that Malawi’s constitution protects against arbitrary detention.
