Karim Lumumba was one of Malawi's most-wanted fugitives before his tragic death, he fled Malawi only to return in a casket. This is after he was involved in a tragic car accident allong with Ginimbi, Moana and Alichia Adams who also perished.
Karim's family confirmed that his remains were released with a Burial by Order which was issued by the authorities after they conducted DNA tests to confirm Karim's body.
After his body was identified he was held in Harare until he could be transported back to Malawi for burial.
“Guys, it’s time to go out, it’s gonna be going down. We’re going to Dreams (nightclub) in the next few minutes, it’s gonna be going down. It’s Moana’s birthday, we’re going to pop champagne, it’s gonna be champagne showers tonight, see you there,”
Karim was a fugitive from justice after facing money laundering charges related to the scandal involving US$2.6 million before he escaped justice and was reportedly based in South Africa.
South African government didn’t help the Malawian government in 2016 when they wanted the late Lumumba Karim tried for money laundering in his country. In fact he was a free man in South African till his death last week in a car accident with Ginimbi. #BushiriEscapepic.twitter.com/pD1dqtYTPS
