A fearless lawyer who has been internationally recognized for her indefatigable fight against injustice and has dedicated her life to representing those persecuted under the Mugabe regime. In 2009, Mtetwa became the only African other than Nelson Mandela to win the prestigious Ludovic-Trarieux International Human Rights Prize.
