"In exercise of the powers vested in me by Section 7(f) of the Immigration Act. I Seretse Khama Ian Khama, President of the Republic of Botswana hereby declare Syed Fakhar Abbas Shah to be an undesirable inhabitant of, or visitor to Botswana," the order says.

The official stamp on the deportation order indicates Khama signed the document a day preceding the elections on Friday. However, Shah was only picked up yesterday to be incarcerated at the Gaborone Maximum Security Prison.
