About 3,000 women have gathered in the city of Blantyre in Malawi to protest against the treatment of several women who were stripped of their clothes in public by street vendors for wearing trousers.
President Bingu wa Mutharika condemned the street vendors' action, saying women had the right to choose their dress and that anyone who attacked them would be arrested.
Malawi scrapped its indecency dress laws in 1994.
