Justice Minister Ronald Lamola has opposed an urgent application by a coalition of Mozambican organisations, which wants to interdict former Mozambican finance minister Manuel Chang from leaving SA for his home country.Justice minister Ronald Lamola has opposed an application by a coalition of Mozambican civil society organisations seeking an urgent order to interdict former Mozambique finance minister Manuel Chang from leaving SA.

Chang has been in prison since December 2018 after being arrested in SA at the request of the US, after it charged him for his alleged involvement in fraudulent loans worth billions to Mozambican state firms.After initially deciding to extradite Chang to Mozambique in May 2019, SA suspended its decision the next month.

In Part B, the forum seeks the review and setting aside of the decision of Lamola to extradite Chang to Mozambique, and seeks that Chang be extradited to the US. The forum wants Chang to be prosecuted in the US because it does not believe that he will be prosecuted if he is extradited to Mozambique. Mashaba said Chang has been indicted in Mozambique, is under a warrant of arrest issued by that country and is no longer immune from prosecution.In an affidavit, Busani Mabunda, an attorney of record for the government of Mozambique, said the allegation that no warrant of arrest has been issued against Chang by Mozambique — and therefore on this basis Chang would not stand trial — was not true.
