MBABANE – Human Rights Lawyer Sipho Gumede says there is a need for a case
study in cases where POCA application infringes on children’s rights.
He said as much as the law was passed by Parliament, there was a need to
challenge its application so that the judge could pronounce a judgment on the
POCA application against the rights of children. “Accommodation is a right
enshrined in the Constitution of the country, so the court will have to
pronounce a judgment on an application of the law that renders children
homeless. That will only happen if the application of the law is challenged,”
Gumede said.
