According to Principal Public Relations Officer for the ACB Egrita Ndala, the Bureau will interview Mutharika from Tuesday, July 20, 2021.

“The Bureau would like to let Malawians know that this is a normal and legal process which started in 2020,” said Ndala.  

About 1.2 million bags of cement worthy MK5billion are alleged to have been imported duty free using Mutharika’s TPIN.

Last year, ACB arrested Mutharika’s former bodyguard Norman Chisale, former Chief of Staff for State Residences Peter Mukhito, former Malawi Revenue Authority (MRA) top official Rosa Mbilizi and businessman Shafee Chunala over their involvement in the saga.

Last year ACB froze bank accounts of Mutharika, former First Lady Gertrude Mutharika and Chisale in relation to the case.
