Attati Mpakati

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Attati Mpakati (died 28 March 1983 in Harare, Zimbabwe) was a Malawian dissident and leader of the Socialist League of Malawi (LESOMA) from 1975 until his death. He was killed by a letter bomb while in exile in Zimbabwe. It is widely suspected that the parcel was sent by agents of President Hastings Kamuzu Banda of Malawi. Mpakati had survived a similar attack in 1979, which President Banda admitted ordering.
