Death toll in Malawi uprising set to rise

BLANTYRE — At least 11 people have been killed in clashes between Malawian demonstrators and police during rioting in three cities against President Bingu wa Mutharika, health officials and relatives said yesterday.

Health ministry spokesperson Henry Chimbali confirmed 10 deaths in the northern city of Mzuzu, where protesters ransacked the offices of Mutharika’s Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) on Wednesday in a rare show of public anger.

Relatives told Reuters another man died after being shot in the southern city of Blantyre, where police and troops fired teargas to disperse crowds of demonstrators wanting Mutharika quit as leader of the impoverished nation of 13 million.

The overall death toll looks set to rise, with security forces in the capital, Lilongwe, clashing for a second day with groups of anti-government youths.
“Most casualties are dying of excessive bleeding,” Chimbali told Reuters. “As people are still rioting out there we’re seeing more casualties coming in, especially at Lilongwe Central Hospital.”

Mutharika, a former World Bank economist first elected in 2004, took to the airwaves to appeal for calm, saying he is happy to hear grievances from opponents who accuse him of ignoring civil liberties and ruining the economy.

“Stop the rioting and let’s sit down to discuss,” he said in a special address on state radio that also hinted at a fiercer crackdown.
Mutharika has presided over six years of high-paced but aid-funded growth, although the sheen has come off this year as he has become embroiled in a diplomatic row with Britain, Malawi’s biggest donor, over a leaked embassy cable that referred to him as “autocratic and intolerant of criticism”.

The cable led to the expulsion of Britain’s ambassador to Lilongwe. In response, Britain expelled Malawi’s representative in London and suspended aid worth $550 million over the next four years.

The freeze has left a hole in the national budget that has relied on handouts for 40% of its revenues, and threatens the strength of Malawi's currency.
