The Police in Lilonge have released on bail United Democratic Front (UDF) Member of Parliament for Machinga Constituency Shaibu Kaliati.

Kaliati was arrested on Friday last week for allegedly having sex with a 16-year-old girl at Annies Lodge in the capital Lilongwe.

Speaker of Parliament Richard Msowoya disclosed this in Parliament on Monday afternoon, saying more details will be announce later.
