Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

SUBJECT: LAWYER SEEKS COURT ORDER FOR RETURN OF EXPELLED
JOURNALIST
1. Beatrice Mtetwa, lawyer for expelled U.S. citizen
journalist Andrew Meldrum, has filed an application in the
High Court seeking the return of her client, expelled on
May 16. The application, filed on May 21, seeks a ruling
that would compel Home Affairs Minister Kembo Mohadi, Chief
Immigration Office, Elasto Mugwadi, and Evan Siziba, a
senior immigration officer, to "ensure Meldrum's return or
face jail." Mtetwa also wants the trio to "pay for the
costs incurred by her client as a direct result of their
actions, from their pockets. . ."
2. Mtetwa is also seeking a High Court order to force the
GoZ Comptroller and Auditor General to deduct the money
directly from the salaries of Mohadi, Mugwadi and Siziba,
and to provide the court with proof of those deductions.
