JOHANNESBURG — In what’s being called a coup attempt, supporters pretended Malawi’s former president was alive for days last year, even flying him to a South African hospital as his body decomposed.
Tanzania’s Deputy Interior Minister Pereira Silima said 127 migrants set off for Malawi from Ethiopia in two trucks, but after reaching the northern Tanzanian town of Arusha were packed into one container truck.
The boat is believed to have capsized late Monday, but police only became aware of the accident on Tuesday after locals “saw dead bodies floating on the lake and a boat floating upside down.”
