[27] Other meetings include those convened at various times by the President of the University of Asmara, Dr Wodeab Yishak, the former Advocate General Mr Mussa Hussien Naib, another senior government officer by the name Mr Andeberhan Woldegiorgis and the Eritrean Ambassador to South Africa Mr Tesfamichaeal Gerahtu himself. In all of these meetings, several controversial issues were raised by students which were not adequately addressed by the conveners. In all instances, the officials, especially the Ambassador, did nothing but only intimidated those who asked challenging questions, discontinued their bursaries, revoked their passports, made them deported and arrested arbitrarily by South African authorities under the pretext of contractual obligations.
