Justice Ivy Kamanga, who in February granted an injunction to a group of Anglicans restraining Mwenda from exercising his duties, revoked the injunction on Monday, advising both parties to resolve the issue at church level. "I urge the applicants and respondents to resolve their differences within their entity," said Kamanga.

"I also urge all the parties to use the principles in their church canons and constitution to resolve the case." Dean of the Cathedral Reverend Denis Kayamba said Wednesday the church has already resolved the matter.

"This means Mwenda is back in the office of the Diocesan Bishop and there is no way anyone can fight that again," he said, adding that the group erred by involving a secular court in the case.

Kayamba said the disgruntled Anglicans were still holding onto the keys for the bishop's official cars and residence in Area 47 in Lilongwe, forcing Mwenda to continue living with a relation at Biwi Township.

"Our lawyer, Manuel Theu, will write their lawyer Allan Chinula to release the keys so that the bishop can have access to his house and cars," he said.

Kayamba said Mwenda will continue performing his duties from his relation's home until the keys are brought back, adding that legal action will be taken against those keeping the keys.
