APAM Threatens to Name Perpetrators in Albino Killing Inquiry

Association of Persons with Albinism in Malawi (APAM) has threatened to name perpetrators that are involved in killings and abductions of people living with albinism in the country.

The threat has made following government’s delays to release the report of the commission of inquiry instituted by President Peter Mutharika earlier last year following reports that albinos were facing various atrocities in the country.

When instituting the inquiry Mutharika assured the association that his government would assist the crackdown of acts and bring the perpetrators to book.

The commission of inquiry was expected to submit a report to Mutharika on April 30, 2019 over the killing of 24 persons with albinism and attacks on over 160 people since 2014.

But with the set deadline passed, APAM President Ian Simbota has made claims that the association is furnished with the truth on all culprits behind abduction and killings of persons with albinism.

According to Simbota, their parallel investigative report will be released soon after the government releases its commission of inquiry report.
