Eric Aniva, a man form Nsanje district who served a two years’ jail term for having sex with more than one hundred women and girls says he will drag government to court for convicting him over a cultural practice.
Aniva, was convicted in 2016 after he admitted to the BBC that he was paid to sleep with more than one hundred women and girls without disclosing his HIV status under a cultural practice known as ‘Fisi’.
However, Aniva told local media house that he will seek legal intervention because he was arrested over a practice chiefs and those who hired him supported.
Commenting on the matter, Senior Chief Malemia said the judgement which Aniva received from the court was justified and is a step forward to protecting women and girls from harmful cultural practices.
