The victim was forced to sleep with the accused said Chigalu who indicated that the suspect had taken advantage of the victims mental problem.

Police in Ntcheu District are hunting for four unknown men who hijacked a Toyota Fortuna, vehicle belonging to Haven Car Hire.

According to Sergeant Hastings Chigalu a Ntcheu Police Deputy Public Relations Officer, the driver identified as Sydney Kagwira was on his way from Lilongwe to Zomba where the vehicle was to be used by another car hire company, Mame Car Hire.



Sgt Chagalu however, said the driver on his way to Zomba, offered a lift to four unknown men at Mathanki bus stage in Biwi, Lilongwe. The police officer said the Haven's car hire Chauffeur was convinced by the the four to have been on two separate journey when they told him that each pair were going to Ntcheu district and Balaka district respectively.



But, Ntcheu Police PRO said the four launched attack at a place called Mapila along M1 road almost 2 Kilometre from Lizulu going to Ntcheu.



Sgt Chigalu said the four passengers, tied and put the driver at the back of the vehicle before dumping him somewhere near Lizulu Police but was left unharmed.



Police have since arrested the driver for further questioning particularly on finding out if he connived with the robbers.



Sgt Chigalu has since urged drivers to refrain from offering lift to unknown men particularly at Biwi, Mathanki bus stage because there are many similar reported cases of drivers being attacked by passengers offered lift from that place.



The driver, Sydney Kagwira comes from Kapesi village of T/A Kachere in Dedza district.
