Mark Vermeulen. Still Crazy?

[Prince EWS]

Slot him straight back in the top order imo.

Well he's been scoring a stack of runs in club cricket since the relaxation of his bail terms.. .

Led the batting averages in his debut Prisoners vs Guards series.

Really flourished under Bert Reynolds' guiding hand.

Not Guilty and Freed

Well he is not going to prison and he won't be put in a mental institution either so I suppose the case is closed. I expect he'll emigrate now, it would be better for him. Then again, he may not because his family still has money in Zimbabwe.

Surely he needs psychiatric help though else he's likely to just re-offend?

Hopefully he'll get it somewhere.

What surprises me here is that there is the suggestion that Zimbabwe still has a judicial system that hasn't either fallen completely to pieces or been made 100% corrupt.

The Judiciary in Zim has always been relatively independent . In fact it has been one of the only really legitimate forms of opposition in the Country.

I had the honour of someone high up (embassasingly I cant remember his name right now) giving me a relaxed one-on-one conversation/interview. It was very interesting. He had been doing this for 40 years and the Zim governement, whilst attempting to put pressure on, wasn't able to prevent an independent judiciary.

The downside being that the Government could disregard a ruling of the judiciary if it so liked, it just couldn't prevent negative rulings being given.
