Description

ABSTRACT In May 2008 a consignment of conventional weapons destined for Zimbabwe arrived in the Durban harbour. The official authorisation for the transfer of the consignment over South African territory to Zimbabwe was interdicted by the dock workers' refusal to offload and an urgent High Court application barring the further transfer of the weapons. The incident caused a controversy and public debate on South Africa's obligations to prevent the transfer of arms to countries, like Zimbabwe, at a time when government oppression and human rights violations in the course of a fraudulent election process were the subjects of international concern. This article assesses the situation firstly from the perspective of the legislative measures and the arms control oversight function of the National Conventional Arms Control Committee, and secondly from South Africa's international law obligations.
