A human rights activist in Malawi and the chairman of Human Rights Defender’s Coalition, Timothy Mtambo is expected to present himself to the police in Malawi capital, Lilongwe.
Mr. Timothy Mtambo, who was being sought by police, will be escorted by fellow citizens and well-wishers to Area 30 police station in Lilongwe 9.00AM local time.
Police Publicist James Kadadzera stated that an arrest warrant had been issued for Mr Mtambo.
Two other HRDC members were arrested on Sunday and charged with inciting violence.
The group had announced plans to shut down the presidential residences across the countries to protest against President Peter Mutharika’s decision not to sack the chairperson of the electoral commission.
HRDC has been calling for changes in the commission before a rerun of the presidential election that was nullified in February.
