The Department of Home Affairs is expected to file an application for leave to appeal a court order on Ugandan national Dr Paul Semugoma.
An interim court order was on Tuesday granted
after Minister of Home Affairs Naledi Pandor and the Departments Director
General Mkuseli Aplieni refused Semugoma entry to the country because his
visitor’s visa had expired.
Departmental Spokesperson Ronnie Mamoepa
said immigration officials from OR Tambo International Airport refused Semugoma
entry because he failed to comply with provisions of the immigration Act 13 of
2002.
Mamoepa added that the reason they are
heading to court is that the order was granted by the court without the
department having any representation.
