Diaspora death has resulted in a lot suffering and lack of closure to many bereaved families and high profile cases include the late musician, Fortune Mupurutsa whose body was stranded in the UK for over nine months in 2009 as family and friends struggled to raise funds for repatriation. In 2011 friends of a slain Zimbabwean university professor, Ottilia Chareka, set up a fund to raise US$20, 000 for the repatriation of her body from Canada to Zimbabwe. |
