MHRC Faults Sumbuleta

The Malawi Human Rights Commission (MHRC) has found former Malawi Broadcasting Corporation (MBC) Director General Sumbuleta guilty for using his position to violate rights of female staff.

MHRC made the revelations today when the commission resented a report on the findings of investigations they conducted regarding the matter.

The Commission then recommended that the Malawi Police Service (MPS) should institute criminal proceedings against Sumbuleta.

The Commission also added that the MBC Board should reinstate two women who resigned due to an unfavorable working environment that the former director general created for them.

Finally, the commission has asked the sexual victims to commence civil proceedings against Sumbuleta for compensation.
