“But we are looking at what we can do to allow her to return to Zimbabwe without being charged,” a South African official said.” We don’t want to jeopardise relations with Zimbabwe. Also a First Lady has never been arrested in Africa and the rest of the continent is watching us and we have to be aware of what it could do to our relations with the continent.”

I'm sorry, but this is absolute nonsense and against the rule of law.

There is nothing for South Africa to be embarrassed about at this stage, Zimbabwe should be embarrassed.

We will however, be a laughing stock if we allow the lawlessness to take place and refuse to defend one of our citizens against aggression from someone who is somehow perceived by others as being "important".

Its time we learned that the law in this country applies to EVERYONE, including "sitting presidents".

These people are NOT royalty and have to obey the law like everyone else.
