Eswatini’s monarchy and government want a South African court to rule that an exiled Swazi editor and his online publication, who they accuse of defamatory and "wildly improbable" reporting, "have committed acts of terrorism".
They claim that Swaziland News editor Zweli Martin Dlamini is guilty of terrorism because he and his publication "clearly support" the Swaziland International Solidarity Forces (SISF), a group aligned with an extremist faction of the Eswatini pro-democracy movement.
According to Eswatini authorities, the SISF is guilty of terrorism - and, by extension, Dlamini and the Swaziland News' allegedly favourable coverage of them amounts to "acts of terrorism".
