    This is what happens when an investigation goes terrifyingly wrong. In rural Malawi, @anasglobal and his BBC crew are investigating murders said to be linked to ritual magic. At a secret meeting, they are mistaken for the killers. #BBCAfricaEyepic.twitter.com/dWdSKTq8PD

        I’m strongly against BBC & Anas’s methods cos these could get people actually murdered as in this case. Do u see the problem with setting people up now? Those guys could have actually murdered a kid. Thanks God for the villagers

        They are already in the business if killing people for muti. Didn't u watch the vid? Didn't u hear the family and the villagers? Can't u read? BBC & @anasglobal are doing their bits to help expose those behind these heinous acts.

        And I guess u misunderstood my point. Those crimes must be exposed but the part I’m against is setting those guys up to commit murder no matter how much care BBC and Anas put in place. They almost got themselves killed and a murder initiated.

        How can one Expose those crimes if you don't act and pretend to be patronizing their services.. how can you get such vital information from those killers. U think undercover journalism is chicken change

        So then tell me. They failed in the set-up this time but the crime was still exposed right? So it is safe to say there was need for the set-up right? U are making my point for me. Perhaps u shd read my stance before u answer

        This is not just from the north only I was almost killed in Ntcheu too doing my research work. So were the education researchers. The problems are too common in the central and Southern Malawi. This is the first case I have heard from the north of Malawi. I live in central Malawi

        BBC u are actually not thinking abt the fact that your set-up could have actually got an innocent kid killed just to prove that those guys are killers but u are rather worried abt ur journalists. Do u really care abt African kids?

        Please be logical. Bbc's setup should never get anyone killed in an ideal situation. Unless,malawi is a failed state where security of life and properties is not guaranteed.

        And by the way, u shd not look diwn on the Malawian government unless u are actually from there. Ritual murder happens in a lot of places in Africa so u cannot assume just because it happens there, it may be a failed state
