A court in Malawi has dropped corruption charges against the country’s Vice President Saulos Klaus Chilima, according to Reuters.
The move comes after Malawi’s director of public prosecutions (DPP) reportedly asked for the case to be discontinued.
Chilima was arrested in 2022 amid allegations of accepting money in exchange for awarding government contracts.
Malawi’s corruption watchdog alleged that Chilima was rewarded for assisting two companies connected to British businessman Zuneth Sattar to be awarded lucrative government contracts.
Both Chilima and Sattar denied any wrongdoing.
