Ugandan refugee sues govt

Musa Isabirye has filed an urgent application against government after he was detained on March 9. He is currently detained at Central Police Station in Gaborone.

He said he has lived in Botswana since 2000 and his many attempts to be granted refugee status only bore fruit in 2011. He said in his affidavit that to the best of his knowledge, he remains a refugee recognised by Botswana laws. He said he is not aware of the revocation of his refugee status and wants to be relocated to another country.
