It is this behaviour that motivated the police to detain her cellphones,\u201d a source told Nation Online.<\/p>\n<p>Chinyere\u2019s lawyer Chrispine Mndala has also told Nation Online that Chinyere was indeed arrested and police confiscated her phones. Mndala added that the suspect appeared before court Lilongwe Magistrate Court on Thursday where she applied for bail and the court is yet to set date to make a ruling.<\/p>\n<p>However, National Police spokesperson Peter Kalaya has claimed that the police have not made any arrest over Katengeza\u2019s murder. Katengeza, an employee of the Reserve Bank of Malawi, left home on September 23 to sell merchandise (INUKA products) and did not specify exactly where she was going. She was found bundled in the trunk of her vehicle in Lilongwe\u2019s Area 47 on September 24.<\/p>\n<p>The revelation about the arrest of the Nigerian woman come days after police on Friday arrested Lester Maganga, a personal assistant to Information Minister Moses Kunkuyu, over the murder of Allan Wittika who was also found dead in his car in Lilongwe last month. It is alleged that Maganga and Wittika were fighting over a woman.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/malawi\">Malawi<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Malawi.
