The British Parliament House of Lords Wednesday discussed the corruption case of Henrietta Rushwaya, the Zimbabwe Miners Federation President (ZMF) asking what measures could be put in place to coerce the Zimbabwean government into upholding good governance practices.

Rushwaya was caught at the Rober Gabriel International Airport intending to smuggle gold to Dubai.
