Read it:
Malawi, 1994 to 2026: one of the poorest countries on earth, whose largest crimes ran through its own treasury. A budget director shot at his gate in 2013, as junior officials were found with cash in their cars, was later charged himself and vanished. Then came a police rations contract and a ruling party's K145 million deposit, a president's bodyguard whose K5 billion forfeiture case no court decided, a British supplier whose case reached the vice-president, a wildlife trafficker jailed, pardoned and freed, and a pension fund that agreed to pay nearly three times a hotel's valuation. Covers Paul Mphwiyo, Ralph Kasambara and Cashgate, Zameer Karim and Pioneer Investments, Norman Chisale, Zuneth Sattar and Xaviar Limited, Yunhua Lin, Thom Mpinganjira, and Martha Chizuma and the Anti-Corruption Bureau.
