Chirwa: In Pains Malawi Police Service officers mercilessly beat up a Malawi Defense Force officer, Marcel Chirwa when they were enforcing covid-19 measures in Area 25. Facts of the matter are that the police were dispersing people who were drinking in Area 25. In the process, the police fired shots in the air from a moving van, a development which triggered Marcel Chirwa to approach them and question the Police’s conduct with regards to rules of engagement. “Why are you shooting instead of just telling the people to leave the place, the shooting may cause tension,” asked Chirwa. This did not go well with trigger-happy police officers who charged against Chirwa and descended upon him. They started beating him up mercilessly until he fainted.
