Threat of Zimbabwean Deportations Criticised

The Zimbabwe Exiles Forum (ZEF) says that a second stampede at the Marabastad Refugee Reception has left 14 people injured.

ZEF’s Gabriel Shumba, who visited the reception centre last week following rumours that some people had died in the stampede, was quoted as saying that with the high number of people at the centre, there is no way to confirm how many people were injured.

Shumba argues that the looming threat of Zimbabwean deportations is making matters worse.
