Chinese national Susu arrested​

June 20, 2022

Chinese national Lu Ke also known as Susu has been arrested in Chipata, Zambia, the Department of Immigration has said.
Lu fled Malawi after a BBC Africa Eye investigation revealed that he was exploiting children by telling them to appear in his videos, including one in which the children chanted “I am a black monster and my IQ is low.”

Spokesperson for the Department of Immigration and Citizenship Services responsible for Central Region Pasqually Zulu says Lu Ke was arrested yesterday at Chipata in Zambia where he is in custody.
The Chinese national is believed to have fled the country using uncharted routes.

According to Zulu, Malawi is working with the Zambian Government so that Lu should be extradited to Malawi.
Lu shot many of his videos at Njewa, just outside the capital in Lilongwe where he was paying children less than K1000 a day to make hundreds of videos which he sold for K77 million.

The matter has caused anger in Malawi and rights activists are expected to march to the Chinese Embassy tomorrow in protests over the dehumanising treatment of Malawian children by Chinese nationals

The University of Malawi Child Rights Clinic wants the People’s Republic of China to compensate children of Njewa in Lilongwe over exploitation by a Chinese national Lu Ke (Susu) who shot a racist video in Malawi.
The demand was included in the UNIMA Child Right Clinic’s petition which was presented to Chinese Embassy, Ministry responsible for children and Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Lilongwe on Tuesday.

Speaking after presenting the petition, UNIMA Child Rights Clinic Supervisor, Professor Garton Kamchedzera said the clinic wants Lu Ke to be brought to Malawi’s court over the child exploitation.
“We demand that Lu Ke should be tried here in Malawi and that the People’s Republic of China should compensate the Njewa children following the exploitation,” Professor Kamchedzera said, adding that the compensation should be made towards their education apart from giving them cash.

The UNIMA Child Rights Clinic Supervisor said cash which was made out from sales of the racist videos should be deposited into a trust fund which will help the need and vulnerable children in Malawi.
Kamchedzera added that what Lu Ke (Susu) did by shooting the video was very exploitative, an insult and injustice to the children of Malawi and a serious violation of universal Convention on the Rights of the Child.
“What Lu Ke (Susu) did at Njewa was a total violation of Conversation on the Right of the Child and other legal instruments that protect child rights,” he said.
After receiving the petition, Principal Secretary responsible for Administration in the Office of President and Cabinet, dikkson Chumba said he will hand over the letter to relevant authorities.
He assured the UNIMA Child Rights Clinic that the petition would be handed over to the relevant authorities without delays. Chumba also hailed the protestors for conducting the
for conducting the demonstrations in a peaceful manner.

“Let me assure you that this petition will be handed over to relevant authorities without delay and the authorities will respond to the concerns,” Chumba added.

The demonstrations by UNIMA Child Rights Clinic started from Bingu International Conference Centre (BICC) up to Chinese Embassy where the embassy’s Information and Communication Officer received the petition.

The protestors also proceeded to Capital Hill where the Principal Secretary in the Office of President and Cabinet responsible for administration received the petition on behalf of the Ministry of Gender and Children and Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
