Original: No trial, no ties: Laotian man freed after 14 months in eSwatini prison

A Laotian man has been released after spending 14 months in prison in eSwatini, where he was held without trial and, according to reports, without clear ties to the country. His case has drawn attention to prolonged detention of foreign nationals in the small southern African kingdom and the lack of legal process surrounding his imprisonment.

Why now: Questions over detention without trial of a foreign national have renewed scrutiny of eSwatini's immigration and justice practices.
