BOTSWANA: Government critic to be deported

Wednesday, June 8, 2005 - 10:00

On May 31, Ken Good, an Australian professor working at Botswana University, lost his appeal against deportation. Good has been a fierce critic of the lack of democracy in Botswana and of the government's policy of forcibly relocating Bushmen from the Central Kalahari Game Reserve. The government labelled the professor "a threat to national security". For more information email Jo Woodman at <jw@survival-international.org>.
