A Malawian court voided a search warrant used to raid opposition leader Banda’s farm on Dec. 19, 2025, due to serious legal flaws.
A Malawian court invalidated a search warrant used to raid opposition leader Simplex Chithyola Banda’s farm on December 19, 2025, citing serious legal flaws.
Senior Resident Magistrate Bracious Kondowe ruled the warrant failed to meet requirements under Sections 113 and 113A of the Criminal Procedure and Evidence Code, noting the supporting affidavit lacked key details like fertilizer type, quantity, batch numbers, and timeframe.
The court rejected the state’s claim that warrants need only be functional tools, affirming they are legally binding instruments protecting constitutional rights.
The decision, seen as a win for Banda’s legal team, underscores strict adherence to procedure and limits on state power in politically sensitive cases.
