 ZIMBABWEAN COUPLE DEPORTED OVER SECRET BURIAL OF CHILD IN BOTSWANA A Zimbabwean couple has been deported from Botswana after secretly burying their child without notifying authorities. Motilinah Mpofu and Christopher Ncube were convicted on Thursday of concealing a death after they allegedly dug a grave for their child in the dead of night. The Gaborone court heard the child had died suddenly. Instead of reporting the death to police, health officials, or traditional leaders, the couple quietly buried the youngster and hoped no one would find out. But the secret did not stay buried for long.   Police moved in and arrested the pair. In sentencing, the court ordered that the couple be taken to the Plumtree Border Post for deportation to Zimbabwe.  Top Botswana lawyer Winnie Masitha who offered the couple free legal representation during the trial, confirmed the deportation to BTV News.

 Italy’s Top Court Grants Single People Right to Adopt Abroad


Italy’s Constitutional Court has ruled that single individuals can adopt children from abroad, overturning a law that previously restricted international adoptions to married couples.


Landmark Ruling Expands Adoption Rights


In a decision hailed as historic by opposition parties, the Rome-based court declared that banning single people from adopting internationally was unconstitutional.


The case stemmed from a 2019 request by a single woman in Florence, which was initially denied under a 1983 law but later referred to the Constitutional Court for review.


The court found that the law unfairly restricted parental rights, stating that:

Becoming a parent is a fundamental right linked to personal self-determination.

Single individuals can provide a stable and nurturing environment for abandoned children.

Judges must evaluate each adoption case based on the individual’s emotional and financial suitability.


Political and Social Reactions


The ruling challenges the traditional family values agenda of Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, a self-described “Christian mother”. Meloni, who leads a far-right government, campaigned on promoting traditional family structures.


Alessandro Zan, the Democratic Party’s rights spokesperson, praised the decision, urging the government to extend adoption rights to same-sex couples.


Legal experts suggest this ruling could pave the way for single individuals to seek adoption rights within Italy as well.
