Unknown criminals have beheaded two Chinese business people and one African at a shop in Karonga during the wee hours of Tuesday.
Karonga Police spokesperson, Enock Livason has confirmed the incident but couldn’t shade more information saying they are still investigating.
The Chinese embassy in Lilongwe has since expressed shock over the brutal murder of the Chinese nationals.
In a statement awhile ago, the embassy says “… this murder is an independent criminal case, and therefore requests the Malawi Police to investigate the heinous crime immediately and thoroughly and bring the suspects to justice as soon as possible.
“We sincerely wish all Malawians and foreigners in the country can continue to enjoy peace and security in Malawi”.
The Malawi Police Service(MPs) has since deployed a special taskforce to investigate the case.
Meanwhile, the remains of the three are at Karonga District Hospital mortuary waiting for burial.
