Kanengo Police have transferred to Central Region Police prosecution team the case involving a man who was allegedly found in possession of Malawi Electoral Commission (Mec) materials.
Manase Jossam was expected to appear before Nkukula Magistrates Court in Lilongwe yesterday after he was arrested on February 14 2019 in connection with the materials.
However, Central Region Police spokesperson, Norriete Chihana Chimala, Wednesday said the suspect would appear before court today.
Jossam was found with 20 monitor identity cards, two marked empty envelopes, two voter registration application book tracking forms, two handbooks for security forces, completed accreditation forms of party and local monitors and two registration booths.
Mec Chief Elections Officer, Sam Alfandika, said the materials would not have any impact on the electoral process.
