DPP urges prosecutors to guard against GBV myths

Malawi’s Director of Public Prosecutions, Fostino Maele, called on prosecutors to keep stereotypes about survivors out of their assessment of gender-based violence cases. He spoke at the opening of a training-of-trainers programme in Lilongwe, where a Southern African Development Community handbook on handling these cases was also handed over. The initiative aims to strengthen prosecutors’ skills and support fairer treatment of survivors within Malawi’s justice system.
