The incident occurred when the woman, a Lilongwe Water Board employee, attempted to disconnect Dan Lu’s water supply due to unpaid bills.

The Lilongwe Water Board has condemned the incident, stating that their employees have the right to carry out their duties without fear of violence or intimidation. “We take the safety and well-being of our employees very seriously,” said a Lilongwe Water Board official.
