A Chinese national accused of racism and exploiting children in Malawi was charged with human trafficking in the capital Lilongwe on Monday. The AFP news agency reports that 26 year-old Lu Ke was arrested last month in neighbouring Zambia for illegal entry after fleeing Malawi when allegations of abuse surfaced. He allegedly filmed children singing racist chants about themselves in Chinese – which they did not understand – and then sold the videos on Chinese social media. State prosecutors say more charges are expected to be laid when investigations conclude in the next two weeks.
