The Parliamentary Ad-Hoc Committee investigating the plane crash that killed former Vice President Saulos Chilima and eight others has completed an inspection of the crash site at Nthungwa in Nkhata Bay District, four hours after commencing its investigations in the Northern Region.

Led by chairperson Walter Nyamilandu Manda, the committee visited the site as part of efforts to establish the circumstances surrounding the June 10, 2024 tragedy.

Officials from the Malawi Police Service, Malawi Defence Force and the Ministry of Health are accompanying the team during the inquiry.

The investigators are also expected to proceed to Mzuzu Airport for further inspections linked to the probe.

The parliamentary inquiry began yesterday at Kamuzu International Airport and forms part of a broader investigation into the military plane crash that claimed the lives of all nine people on board.
