The right to reparation is a well-established principle of international law. Reparation is a principle of law that has existed for centuries, referring to the obligation of a wrongdoing party to redress the damage caused to the injured party. Under international law, reparation must, as far as possible, wipe out all the consequences of the illegal act and re-establish the situation which would, in all probability, have existed if that act had not been committed. To help us deal with this complex issue we are joined on the line by:
Mallett Giyose is chairman of Jubilee South Africa
Zola Valashiya: Campaign Manager at Corruption Watch and Founder of Debate Africa
