*About 550 Malawian Citizens In Zimbabwean Prisons* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?ri About 550 Malawian citizens are said to be in Zimbabwean prisons after they were caught trying to sneak into South Africa without proper travel documents. According to authorities, 317 Malawians are in prison in the capital Harare, 83 are in a prison in the Midlands city of Gweru, 82 in Chivhu and 86 in Mvuma. ---------- Latest itel S24 available on Pindula: 128GB storage, 4GB RAM $119 USD WhatsApp: +263715068543 Calls: 0772464000 Buy Online: https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-s24-128gb-22-20240426142756795795/?s=wanews ---------- The majority of the immigrants had no intention of staying in Zimbabwe as they were caught en route to South Africa, according to Nation Africa. Malawi has since sought help from international institutions such as the International Migration Organisation (IOM) to facilitate the return of its citizens. IOM Zimbabwe spokesperson Fadzai Nyamande-Pangeti confirmed that the organisation was considering the request from the Malawian government. Ms Nyamande-Pangeti said: > We are supporting the government (of Zimbabwe) through the provision of varied logistical support as we always do where funding is available. > We cannot provide any other details on the progress of this operation or how long these Malawian nationals have been in Zimbabwe. Zimbabwe’s Foreign Affairs ministry spokesperson Livit Mugejo said the embassy of Malawi is processing their papers for them to go back to Malawi. He said: > These are not prisoners, they were only intercepted and found to have inadequate papers. The Zimbabwe Human Rights Commission says it is not ideal for immigrants to be locked up in prisons with criminals as this was a violation of human rights violations. Immigrants from across Africa use Zimbabwe as an entry point into South Africa due to the country’s porous borders. *Pindula News* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
