Senior Resident Magistrate Wanangwa Nyirenda has adjourned to 21st February 2022 a case involving political rights activist Bon Kalindo following his allegations that he knows people behind the killings of persons with albinism in Malawi.

Kalindo’s lawyer Gilbert Khonyongwa told the court in Lilongwe on Tuesday that he needed enough time to go through certain documents including some disclosures the state had made.

He added his client had been attending different court cases; a development that did not give them ample time to prepare for this case.

But state prosecutor, Cecelia Zanga-Zanga argued the defense had enough time; saying the state was ready with its two witnesses.

However, Nyirenda adjourned the case; saying in the interest of fair justice, the defense should have time to prepare for the case.

Kalindo pleaded not guilty to a charge of publishing a false statement likely to cause fear and alarm to the public.
