Attati Mpakati (died 24 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.[1] It is widely suspected that the parcel was sent by agents of President Hastings Banda of Malawi. Mpakati had survived a similar attack in 1979, which President Banda admitted ordering.[2]
