Malawi police said in Lilongwe on Friday that they had arrested a Kenyan national caught illegally processing UK visas for entry into Britain.
Assistant Superintendent Emily Kaludzu said Mike Njoroge Mwangi (32 years) was arrested after a tip off from the public that he was tricking Malawians travelling to the UK, telling them that he could process their travel documents illegally.
Kaludzu said the suspect has been charged with three counts of illegal entry into Malawi, illegal possession of foreign currencies and illegal possession of Malawian passports with different names on them.
"The suspect is still in custody waiting to appear in any day next week," she said.
Kaludzu added that after searching his house, the police confiscated nine Malawian passports, 227,000 kwacha (US$1,500), 50 euros and US$7,500 – the latter two in foreign currencies.
