High Court in Blantyre on Friday granted an injunction to 15 District Commissioners (DCs) against Ministry of Local Government decision to demote them.
According to information gathered by FaceofMalawi, Ministry of Local Government demoted 15 and Administration Officers claiming that their positions did not exist in the civil service.
