Zimbabwean opposition leader Nelson Chamisa emphasised the Judiciary’s responsibility to uphold fundamental rights and freedoms for all citizens.
Chamisa asserted that the courts serve as custodians, guardians, and guarantors of justice and stressed the importance of maintaining their independence and professionalism in fulfilling this role.
Chamisa highlighted the right to bail as a fundamental right that should never be compromised, negated, or undermined.
In a statement seen by newsreportzim.com, Chamisa wrote:
“”THE COURTS AS GUARANTORS OF RIGHTS AND LIBERTIES…The courts are the custodians, guardians and guarantors of justice. The last bastion of our collective dignity and sanity.”
“Courts are entrusted to uphold fundamental rights and freedoms. When they lose their independence and professionalism, they inevitably fail and fall short in this duty.”
“And when they do so, they inadvertently surrender the frontiers of justice, rights and fundamental freedoms to beasts who cannibalize the innocent and feast on citizens liberties.”
