Malawi Congress Party spokesperson Jessie Kabwila drew criticism for condemning police actions against 17 suspects charged with political violence. Critics argued her stance ignores victims' suffering, recalling attacks during prior MCP governance when dissenters faced assault. They noted Kabwila's current defense of the alleged perpetrators contradicts her silence during earlier violence targeting ordinary citizens.

Observers stressed justice requires consistent application regardless of political ties. They urged Kabwila to support lawful procedures rather than question the arrests of individuals documented as attacking protesters. Authorities should receive recognition for professionally pursuing accountability, not criticism. Kabwila's remarks risk deepening divisions and diverting attention from victims' needs. Analysts suggested her efforts would better serve national unity by promoting peace and respecting judicial processes instead of defending those accused of violence. Malawians expect leaders to uphold impartial justice above partisan interests, they added.
