Charges are that on February 5 Nico was issued with a notice to leave Zimbabwe by the Department of Immigration following the expiry of his work permit and this was also endorsed on his passport when he left the country.<\/p>\n<p>For the love of Zimbabwe, Nico attempted to enter the country through Beitbridge Border Post on April 21 using his passport whose endorsed pages had been pulled off.<\/p>\n<p>However, this was discovered by the immigration officer when he tendered his passport for clearance.<\/p>\n<p>Nico was then denied entry and ordered to go back to South Africa. Determined to enter the country, Nico later on approached another immigration officer using a different passport and he was again refused entry and went back to South Africa.<\/p>\n<p>The State further alleges that on July 7 Nico arrived at Beitbridge using the same passport and had a forged Zimbabwean immigration date stamp and falsely declared that he was on transit.<\/p>\n<p>The offence was discovered four days later by an alert immigration officer who then tipped the police leading to his arrest.
