A 58-year-old woman from Malawi has been hospitalized at the
Karonga district hospital after she was stabbed by her younger brother, Medson
Mwekinda, over a land dispute. The victim identified as Flyness Kinda, was
stabbed in the head and right arm by her brother who is presently on the run..
In an interview, which was published on Nyasa Times, a member
of the family, Ellen Kinda said Medson Mwekinda blocked the victim on her way
to the land and attacked her.
'What happened was that the victim was on her way to plant
cassava to her garden in the morning and while on her way, the suspect blocked
her and then started stabbing her using
an axe.'
According to her, the suspect also injured the daughter of
the victim with a panga knife when she went to his house to confront him.
The Councillor at Karonga, Mr. Harry Mwanyembe condemned the
attack and has urged the law enforcers to immediately deal with such kind of issues
in the district.
