HRCC Condemns Undressing of a Woman in Blantyre, Calls Immediate Arrest of the Perpetrators

Human Rights Consultative Committee (HRCC) has condemned the public undressing of a woman in Blantyre describing the development as barbaric and calls for immediate arrest of the perpetrators.

Yesterday some vendors harassed and undressed a woman in the commercial city of Blantyre simply because she wore a min skirt.

Reacting to the uncalled act by vendors, HRCC in a press statement made available to Face of Malawi has since called for the arrest of the perpetrators whose faces are visible in the video.

HRCC is also looking for the whereabouts of the harassed lady and is asking for those who might know her and report to HRCC offiices.

Circulation of the video online has sparked debate among social media users.
