Malawian President Peter Mutharika ordered the arrest Tuesday of a man paid to have sex with more than 100 adolescent girls as part of a traditional ritual marking their passage to womanhood.
The order was issued after the man from the southern district of Nsanje gave a media interview confessing to have slept with the girls for a fee of between four and seven dollars paid by each of their families.
“I order police to immediately arrest Mr Eric Aniva, investigate him and take him to court forthwith for defilement cases,” Mutharika said in a statement.

This little-known local practice is performed in southern Malawi by men known as “hyenas” at the behest of a girl’s parents after her first menstruation.

A twenty-eight-year-old housewife, Mrs. Mary Attah, was yesterday condemned to death by hanging by an Effurun High Court for stabbing her husband, who was a pastor, with a kitchen knife before setting him ablaze.
The court presided over by Justice Edward I. Oritsejafor, sentenced the accused person to death having been pronounced guilty of the one count charge proffered against her by the Delta State Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice.
The prosecution lawyer, Patrick Mekako Esq, had told the court that the accused, who was married to Darlington Attah (now deceased) with four children, did attack her husband with a kitchen knife and stabbed him in the neck as a result of an alleged phone call from the husband’s lover.

The court was further told that the accused was infuriated by the telephone call at a time they were having a ‘nice time’, which prompted her to rush to the kitchen, collected the knife and armed herself with grounded pepper, which she rubbed on her husband’s face to immobilize him before stabbing him in the neck.
