HAPPY CLIENTS

Meet Zalaka Makebo and Zeyene Eregano - they are asylum seekers who had difficulties in accessing the asylum system after arriving in South Africa in 2025.

On separate months in 2026, they approached our office for assistance and we immediately launched High Court applications on their behalf to compel the Department of Home Affairs to allow them to access the asylum system.

Unfortunately, whilst they were awaiting the outcome of their High Court applications, they were arrested for being illegal in South Africa in July 2026.

Since they are asylum seekers, we submitted representations to the National Prosecuting Authority to withdraw charges against them on the basis that they are asylum seekers, and they had instituted High Court applications before they were arrested.

The NPA approved the representations and both Mr. Makebo and Mr. Eregano charges were withdrawn and they were released on 27 July 2026.

We recently assisted our clients Mr. Seilemo and Mr Jakiso to initiate their applications for asylum.

Both Mr. Seilemo and Mr. Jakiso fled their home countries due to political persecution. However, upon arrival in South Africa, they struggled to commence their applications for asylum.

They approached our offices and we immediately launched judicial review applications to compel the Department of Home Affairs to facilitate the first stage of the asylum seeker process.

On 05 June 2026 and 08 June 2026, The Durban High Court granted orders in their favour.

The positive of the court orders is that Mr. Seilemo and Mr. Jakiso cannot be arrested, detained or deported.

Do you have the same problem as Mr. Seilemo and Mr. Jakiso? Don't hesitate to call us now.

This is Mencha Lachamo Salamo, from Ethiopia. He applied for asylum in South Africa in 2024 and got rejected by the Standing Committee for Refugee Affairs (SCRA). Following that, he was ordered to leave South Africa within 30 days. Mr. Salamo continued to remain in South Africa, whilst facing possible arrest and deportation.

In November 2025, he approached our offices after struggling to get legal assistance. We immediately launched judicial review application, and were able to have his temporary asylum seeker permit renewed. Now, Mr. Salamo is able to reside in South Africa legally until we advance his case in High Court to have him recognised as a refugee.

Have you been also rejected by SCRA? Are you based in Kwa-Zulu Natal? Please don't hesitate to contact us.

I Received Instructions from a Law Firm which Specialises in Instituting Legal Proceedings Against the Minister of Police

CASE DETAILS 🗒️ : Four Seperate Applications to Compel Discovery v. Minister of Police

DATE 📅 : 13 February 2026

COURT 🏛: Scottburg Magistrates' Court

FACTS 🗒️ : These were applications to compel discovery - the notices in terms of rule 23 were served on 06 June 2025 requesting the Respondent to produce police dockets within 20 days of service. The Respondent failed to adhere to the requests, however the Applicants refrained from launching applications to compel discovery immediately after the expiry of 20 days. The applications to compel discovery were eventually served on Respondent on 18 December 2025. The Respondent served its notices of intention to oppose applications on 20 January 2026, and no opposing affidavits were filed before date of set-down. And so, we proceeded with applications to compel discovery.....

RESPONDENT'S ARGUEMENT 🤵‍♀️: Respondent's attorneys argued that when the applications were served, their offices were closed for the year 2025. Their correspndent attorneys failed to bring to their attention the applications immediately after they reopened for the year 2026. They also alleged that they were under the impression that these applications were set-down for 20 February 2026 and not 13 February 2026. Thus, they asked the court to postpone the applications as to afford them an opportunity to comply with the rule 23 notices.

APPLICANTS' ARGUEMENT 🤵‍♂️: I argued that the Respondent was afforded sufficient time (6 months) to comply with rule 23 notices - the Applicants could have launched the applications immediately after the expiry of 20 days. The Applicants complied with the rules ahead of the date of set-down, and thus the Respondent's failure overall was due to its attroneys lack of preperation and total disregard of the Applicants' preperation for trial. The notices of intention to oppose applications were simply filed to delay Applicants' preparation for trial, and judging by the Respodnent's failure to file opposing affidavits, the Repondent had no valid reason behind the delay to produce police dockets. Therefore, a postponment would prejudice the Applicants in their preparation for trial, and the only appropriate relief was for the court to grant the applications to compel discovery.

JUDGEMENT 👨‍⚖️ : The Magistrate denied the Respondent's request for postponment and granted Applicants' applications to compel discovery with costs.

We had success at the Chatsworth Magistrates Court yesterday.

CASE DETAILS📖: The State versus Nouman Ali

CHARGES👮🏽‍♀️: Attempted R**e | Illegal Immigrant

NATIONALITY🇵🇰: Pakistani

DATE📅: 12 December 2025

FACTS: He is accused of attempted r**e of an adult female. Upon investigation and whilst he was custody, a section 212 inquiry concluded that he is in South Africa illegally since 2018 as his general work permit visa expired in 2018.

STATE'S POSITION🗽: the State objected to bail because he was viewed as a flight risk. On the day of his arrest, he was found hiding in the ceiling of his place of residence. Allegedly.

BAIL APPLICATION MERITS⚖️: We applied for bail because he is not your average illegal foreigner. He has been living in Chatsworth for 11 years, he has been married to a South African woman for 10 years, they have 2 minor children, his wife is expecting a third child and she suffers from diabetes. We used his PERSONAL circumstances to apply for BAIL, and to prove that he is not a flight risk as he has ties in the Court's jurisdiction and the Republic of South Africa. Additionally, we used various case law to advance our submissions. Therefore, we argued that he is NOT a flight risk.

JUDGEMENT🧑🏽‍⚖️: The Magistrate was convinced by our argument and granted bail in the amount of R2000 with strict conditions - two of which requires him to report to Chatsworth Police Station 5 days a week between 6am and 6pm, and renew his general work visa before 11 February 2026.

DIVERSION OF MINOR OFFENCES FROM CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM

Are you a first time adult offender? You could qualify for diversion.

WHAT IS DIVERSION?

Diversion is an alternative dispute resolution mechanism, wherein a case is diverted away from the formal criminal justice system, with a view to dispose a case outside of the criminal justice system.

Simply put, instead of going to prison and getting a criminal record the offender can be offered a life skills programme and counselling. After the successful completion of the skills programme and counselling, your matter will be withdrawn.

Types of offfences:

-petty theft;
-vandalism;
-minor assault;
-driving under the influence of alcohol and certain other traffic offences.

Your first offence should not determine your future - you deserve a second chance. Contact us now for more information.
