According to The Eagle findings, dowry payment could be a little complex in Malawi, as confirmed by Malawiplus.

It says that in many tribes, the process involves the groom’s family, led by his uncle, meeting the bride’s parents and family to propose marriage. Urban couples begin with a proposal and agreement between the two, which is also common in the West, but the wedding cannot take place unless the families meet and agree.

    The man should be arrested immediately for destroying the properties of his in-laws. When he built those houses, they were built in the names of the inlaws and in their village. Does he own a land in the in-laws village? Besides any property no matter how small has a building plan which bears the name of the owner. I can bet that the drawings of those properties bears his in-laws names. Giving the facts that no on coerced him to build the houses but was done willfully for whatever reason, he has no right to demolish the properties because he felt aggrieved. To this end the in-laws should report him to the police for appropriate action.
