The Lilongwe Third Grade Magistrate Court has convicted and slapped a 52-year-old man, Rodwell Amazon, with a K30,000 fine or in default, serve two months imprisonment for conduct likely to cause breach of peace.

The court heard through state prosecutor Sub- Inspector Maggie Kayaka, that on June 23, 2023 at around 10 o’clock in the morning, Amazon went to

Electricity Supply Corporation of Malawi Limited (ESCOM) Service Centre offices at Lilongwe Game Complex in Area 4, just like any other customer but with hidden intentions.

When he was welcomed in the office, Amazon insulted the ESCOM employees accusing them of not connecting power to his house in Area 23 since 2016 when he applied.

It is said that he opened a 5-litre -container full of stinking urine and started pouring everywhere inside the customer service hall, a development which caused panic among employees and other clients.

Amazon pleaded guilty to the charge of conduct likely to cause breach of peace in court and prayed for a lenient sentence.
