Africa-Press – Eswatini. <\/strong><\/span>The Ministry of Home Affairs is investigating the circumstances leading to the release from prison of Pakistani and Bangladeshi nationals, with a memo purportedly issued by a senior officer in the ministry.<\/b><\/p>\n

A full investigation has been initiated by the ministry after being asked to shed light as to what transpired, resulting in the release of the two foreign nationals. A source within the ministry has revealed that a senior officer sent him to His Majesty\u2019s Correctional Services (HMCS) in Big Bend with a memo from the ministry, instructing officials at the prison to release the two foreign nationals. The employee confided that the duo was fetched and transported in a government rented motor vehicle. The employee showed this reporter the memo which was annexed to the charge sheet of the two foreign nationals, who had been charged for contravening the Immigration Act No. 17 of 1982.<\/p>\n

They were allegedly found in possession of forged documentation at the King Mswati III International Airport. \u201cI have been warned not to show anybody the memo as it is going to cause a lot of trouble for my superiors. I believe the corruption taking place within the ministry has to come to an end,\u201d said the employee. Ministry of Home Affairs Communications Officer Mlandvo Dlamini said in cases involving forged documents, the ministry treated such acts as serious criminal offences and reported them direct to the police for further investigation. Dlamini said in collaboration with the law enforcement agencies, investigations had been instituted in tackling the problem. \u201cWe are committed to working together with the police to ensure a thorough investigation takes place and if necessary, those responsible are brought to justice,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
