Two outlets report that leaked documents name South African businessman Zunaid Moti in connection with a controversy involving alleged funding to Malawi First Lady Gertrude Mutharika. Both reports say Moti, described as a business mogul accused of providing millions to the First Lady’s Beautify Malawi (BEAM) Trust, has been appointed to a diplomatic post as Malawi’s envoy. The allegations have prompted calls from governance watchdogs for forensic scrutiny, according to the reports. The documents referenced by the outlets are presented as the basis for claiming the appointment follows the funding row, but neither source provides additional verification or details on the documents’ provenance in the excerpt provided. The reporting characterizes the issue as an expanding scandal and notes that watchdogs are pressing for investigations into the alleged movement of funds connected to the BEAM Trust. At the same time, the accounts focus on the leaked materials and the appointment rather than presenting findings from any completed official inquiry. The reports therefore emphasize the claimed linkage between the alleged funding and the diplomatic reward, as laid out in the leaked documents.
