Family of Zambia's ex-leader should choose his burial site, South Africa court says

A South African appeals court has decided that the family of former Zambian President Edgar Lungu will have the final say on his burial site, reversing an earlier ruling that allowed Zambia's government to repatriate his body for a state funeral. This decision underscores the importance of respecting familial wishes in matters of burial and honors. The ruling comes amid a broader discussion on the rights of family members versus state protocols, highlighting the complexities involved in such inter-country legal disputes.
