LILONGWE, Malawi – Air traffic controllers say Madonna's plane has landed in Malawi, where she is expected to begin proceedings this week to adopt a girl as her second child from the impoverished African country.
The controllers at the airport in the capital Lilongwe spoke on condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to discuss the matter with reporters.
A Malawian welfare official and a person involved in the adoption proceedings have said the girl Madonna is hoping to adopt is about 4 years old and her unmarried mother died soon after she was born. They spoke on condition of anonymity because the case is considered sensitive.
Madonna adopted Malawian-born David last year.
