Mugabe suspends attorney general


Last updated: 12/15/2007 15:07:51

ZIMBABWEAN President Robert Mugabe on Friday suspended the country's attorney general to pave way for an investigation into charges of abusing his office.

Sobusa Gula-Ndebele was last month briefly detained by police over allegations he promised to help fugitive banker, James Mushore, who had fled the country. Gula-Ndebele denies the accusations.

SUSPENDED: Gula-Ndebele
Mugabe set up a three-member team to investigate his conduct. Misheck Sibanda, the Chief Secretary to the President and Cabinet, said Justice Chinembiri Bhunu will chair the tribunal, which also includes Justice Samuel Kudya and Harare lawyer Lloyd Mhishi.


"The tribunal’s secretariat will in due course avail all the necessary papers which relate to the inquiry to Gula-Ndebele. After its inquiry, the tribunal will make its recommendations to President Mugabe on whether or not Mr Gula-Ndebele should remain as the country’s Attorney-General," Sibanda said in a statement.

The tribunal is separate to a police investigation. He is charged with corrupt conduct, which attracts a heavy fine and maximum 15 years in jail, if convicted. A trial date has yet to be set.

Gula-Ndebele could not be reached for comment on Saturday.

Police say that in September Gula-Ndebele met Mushore, the former director of banking group NMBZ Holdings and promised him he would not be arrested if he returned to Zimbabwe.

Mushore fled to Britain in 2004 at the height of a Zimbabwean banking crisis that saw several finance houses shut down by the country's central bank. He was arrested in October upon his return to Zimbabwe.

Local papers have been quick to report that the accusations against Gula-Ndebele were politically motivated.

Newspapers said he had clashed with Justice Minister Patrick Chinamasa over control of the attorney-general's department, which oversees the functions of the country's prosecutors. - Reuters

Hii mbinu kajifunza kwa mwenzie Gen (rtd) Pervez Musharraf wa Pakistan. Kumbuka wote wana bifu na wazungu na wamesimamishwa uanachama wa Commonwealth, ambao Jongwe anadai si kitu, "..what is it anyway? A club! There are so many other clubs we can join!" Ndivyo alivyotamka siku alipoambiwa Zimbabwe imesimamishwa uanachama wa Commonwealth. Majuzi Musharraf nae katimua majaji wote ambao wanaonekana dhahiri kimsimamo kutounga mkono masuala yake, na kuteua wapya kabla ya uchaguzi, anasubiri watu wapeleke kesi ya kima kwa tumbili waone hukumu itakavokuwa ya "haki"!
 
Kithuku,
AG hayupo chini ya mhimili wa mahakama,ni presidential appointee na anawajibika kwa waziri wa sheria. Binafsi sidhani kama kuna siasa iliyofanyika kumsimamisha na kumchunguza kwa mujibu wa nchi yoyote ile inayofuata utawala wa sheria. Inakupasa uelewe kwanza, hakufukuzwa kazi bali amesimamishwa na uchunguzi unafanyika kuchunguza tuhuma. Kwa serikali inayofahamu wajibu wake hivi ndivyo inavyopaswa kuendeshwa...hivi si ulisikia Vithrani, Depark na Chavda wanaingia na kutoka Bongo? nani anawakingia kifua? kwa serikali inayohamu wajibu wake kuanzia AG wa enzi hizo Chenge, Waziri wa sheria na ghasia zote walishapaswa kusimamishwa na kuchunguzwa. Lakini kwa kuwa serikali yetu haijui wajibu wala majukumu yake ndio maana tunawaona mafisadi wanazidi kutanua. Time imefika ya kumuomba mzee Mugabe ushauri badala ya kumfananisha na Musharaf bila ya sababu ya msingi.
