Media violations

MISA Malawi is appealing to the police to thoroughly investigate the matter and bring the perpetrators to book.

The letter was submitted to the President through the Office of the President and Cabinet (OPC), Capital Hill, Lilongwe on Monday, March 16, 2020.

Police officers must stop treating journalists as criminals.

MISA Malawi finds it unfortunate that some MPs are in the forefront of victimising journalists.

Deputy Minister of Transport and Public Works Charles Mchacha has apologised for insulting Nation (NPL) journalist Bobby Kabango.

We expect exemplary conduct from Cabinet Ministers, including Honourable Mchacha

Kayuni was not taking pictures of the demonstrators but even if she were taking the pictures that would not be a crime

MISA Malawi is worried that authorities continue to treat journalism as a crime

Creation of a hostile environment for journalists by demonstrators is uncalled for, says MISA Malawi.

We find MACRA ‘s directive not only unreasonable but ill-timed and a deliberate ploy to limit media freedom and freedom of expression.
