Facts of the Case
Background
The applicant, a customs clearing agent, challenged the suspension of its clearing bond by the first respondent (ZIMRA) for alleged non-payment of port health fees amounting to US$42,400. The suspension was imposed despite the alleged offence arising under the Public Health Act rather than the Customs and Excise Act under which the bond was issued.
