The returnees went rioting as they demanded their passports back and immediate release to go to their homes, protesting the quarantine protocol.
Police had to use tear gas to restore order as the impatient returnees also blocked the Blantyre – Zomba Road and smashed passing vehicles.
Some of the returnees also torched some structures at the prison training school which during one-party dictatorship was used as a Malawi Young Pioneers training base.

Hell broke loose on Sunday at Mapanga Prison Training College in Blantyre where Malawian returnees from South Africa are being quarantined for COVID-19.
The returnees demanded authorities to have their passports back and be released to go to their respective homes.
“They blocked Limbe – Zomba road and smashed vehicles. Police came in and fired tear gas to quell the situation,” said one eye witness.
Spokesperson for Mwanza Border Post where the returnees entered the country through, Pasqually Zulu, said they can only give back the passports upon production of COVID-19 test results by health officials.
