According to the complainants, they have evidence that Jere diverted the stones for his own personal gain.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe used the same for his house at Maliba Soko Villabge, Vibangalala Trading Centre. We have made every effort to have him account for his conduct but all our efforts have proved futile,\u201d the constituents said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe the people of Mzimba South Constituency hereby formally lodge this criminal complaint to the Director General of the Anti-Corruption Bureau through your Mzuzu office for further investigations into the matter and possible criminal prosecution.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The constituents have since offered to provide videos, audios and pictures to assist with the investigations. Last month, Human Rights Defenders Coalition (HRDC) through its chairperson for the South Masauko Thawe also made similar allegations after visiting Jere\u2019s residential area<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCommunity members have confirmed that this is the quarry stolen from the construction company. The theft of the quarry has delayed the project because the stones would have been used for about a kilometre or so,\u201d said Thawe. But Jere denied stealing the quarry saying the stones seen at his house were bought from a Chinese company at K400,000.<\/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.
