Namibia:Judge Orders Training for Home Affairs Officials
The Ministry of Home Affairs and Immigration must design a training programme for its officials whose duties include the enforcement of the Immigration Control Act, Windhoek High Court judge Shafimana Ueitele has ordered. The ministry's permanent secretary and chief immigration officer must also design programmes that would help the ministry monitor the detention of alleged illegal immigrants in Namibia, and should have training programmes on the Immigration Control Act in place by no later than the end of September this year, judge Ueitele further ordered in a judgement delivered last Thursday.
