Lawyers Attempting to Stop Deportation of Zimbabweans As Chartered Plane to Harare 'Takes Off' July 21, 2021 Share share MARYLAND — Several organizations in Britain on Wednesday made frantic efforts to block the deportation of some Zimbabweans, deemed to have committed various crimes in the United Kingdom. In an interview, London-based attorney, Andrew Nyamayaro, said a chartered flight was delayed Wednesday following a ruling by a British judge that some of the people already in the plane were in danger of being victimized by state security agents soon after landing in Zimbabwe. About 50 Zimbabweans were initially expected to be deported to Zimbabwe but others managed to contest and block their deportations in court and were pulled out of the plane, which had other foreigners. Indications are that only 25 Zimbabweans were still in the plane last night before it took off.
