The High Court sitting in Mzuzu has reserved its bail ruling on an application by Tadikila Mafubza Mutharika, step son to former President Peter Mutharika to 2 O’clock this afternoon.

Tadikila is being suspected to have been involved in a murder and human trafficking case.

Mafubza’s arrest followed the discovery of a mass grave of thirty suspected illegal immigrants at Mtangatanga forest reserve in Mzimba District.

Since his arrest in November last year, he has been on remand at Maula prison in Lilongwe.

Mafubza is answering the charges alongside four other suspects namely David Luhanga, Thomas Gidson, Samuel Navaya and Duncan Kalulu.
