Online Star Says Police Keep Her Money.
A well-known web writer, Tamia Ja, claims police at Lingadzi hold K1.2 million that belongs to her.
Police took Tamia Ja last year when someone said she stole cash. A business person sent K8 million to her bank space by error. The money is meant to go to another person. People said Tamia Ja would not give the funds back.
The police came to her home during their work. They took her a travel pass and some money. They gave her a pass back but kept K1.2 million.
"I asked many times for my money," Tamia Ja wrote on Facebook. "Nothing changed. I put this here because I need help from others."
She also told people to learn what rights they have. This matters most when meeting police, she said.
Tamia Ja added that judges must give papers before police can look through cars or homes. "Police need these papers to search any things you own in Malawi," she said.
