Man attempts to burn Kamuzu Central Hospital
Owner of SK Security Guard services, Simoleti Kachere, who was arrested after a failed attempt to set alight Kamuzu Central Hospital (KCH) for failing to settle bills amounting to K4 million (US$9 592), is currently on bail.
Lilongwe Police spokesperson Ramsey Mushani said yesterday in an interview that, Kachere is said to be furious with the outstanding balance and on January 4, he set off for KCH with a gallon of petrol.
“When he came to the hospital, he started to chat up with one of his employees. We don’t know what they were talking about, but from nowhere, he chased the employee and threw some petrol on his body then he started heading to the accounts department,” he said. According to Mushani, a police officer, who was nearby, saw the commotion and stopped Kachere before he did any damage.
In a separate interview, hospital director Noor Alide confirmed the incident.
Mushani further said Kachere has been charged with conduct likely to cause grievous harm and attempted arson. The crime carries a maximum sentence of 14 years. “The suspect is now on a K35 000 bail,” said Mshane.
can the police check with the prison services whether this man finished his sentence after being caught at the airport with fake fisp coupons?
He needs to be taken to mental hospital
Just give him his money
Pay him! He earned his money; K4million is not small money. He pays his guards every month for the hospital’s security.
The effects of cash gate. So many suppliers to Government are thinking of that. Imagine you supply katundu ku zipatala, Government Colleges but taking over 12 months without being paid while other people- Lutepo and the like are paid millions without doing any service to the Government. Kachere is very normal koma munthu umafera zako. Ndalama zimene analanda a cash gate amulipire basi pamodzi ndi mavenda ena onse. Cash gate taught us there is money in the Government covers. Opposition parties,MPs, Civil Society and Clergy you see this.
Does Malawi still have Civil Society? Clergy? Opposition Parties ? dont make me laugh they have all been swallowed or died together with Bingu wa Munthalika and are buried at Mpumulo wa Bata. We now survive with the media thanks to journalists zinazi zatha fashion kkkkk where is Mwakasungula,Neba,Chanika,Billy Banda.Rev Nyondo do they still exist hahahha adya orange
Mwaonatu a Kampaundi zotsatira za cashgate. KCH pay the man. If he was paid, he could nut think of lighting the hospital. Remember that he is also an employer he needs to pay his employees, he needs to feed his family, he needs to assist his relatives. Mr. Alide you are funded every month, are you sure you are failing to pay the company even in installments. Munthutu ameneyu sanalakwe, wolakwa ndi a boma. Joisi Banda Hilida akunka kumagawa nsapato pamene chipatala chikulephera kulipira ngongole. Zomvetsa chisoni ku Malawi.
very sad ,ugawa sapato ? eee? koma umbatama wake wamtundu wanji umenewu? beyond belief . pay him his money simple? he had no option seeing ena angowoonga ndalama za boma
To set fire to hospital wasnt a good idea but this man deserve to be paid why the government is failing to pay the security company? And where is Mr Undule Mwakasungula who used to make noise during Mutharika’s government? Nanga lucius banda alikuti atuletsetu ka single ka cash gate anthu amvere paja mumati inu ndiye ma freedom fighters to say the fact Mzimayi dziko lamukanika kutsogolera
