Africa-Press – Malawi. <\/strong><\/span>The High Court in Lilongwe has revoked former budget director Paul Mphwiyo\u2019s bail and recommended his arrest wherever and whenever he will be found. This follows an application by the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) for bail revocation owing to Mphwiyo\u2019s abscondment and flouting of bail conditions.<\/p>\n

In a press statement signed by ACB principal public relations officer, Egrita Ndala said Mphwiyo, who is answering Cashgate-related corruption charges has been absconding on bail for at least four months since June.<\/p>\n

Ndala added that the court has also ordered a forfeit to the government of Mphwiyo\u2019s MK10 million bail bond as well as that of his four sureties pegged at two million kwacha each.<\/p>\n

Mphwiyo is believed to have sneaked out of the country in June this year ahead of the court\u2019s much-anticipated ruling on his case. Consequently, Malawi Police declared Mphwiyo as fugitive.<\/p>\n

The Malawi government lost billions of kwachas to unscrupulous public servants and their accomplices in the infamous Cashgate scandal around 2012 and 2013.<\/p>\n
