Шаблон:Cleanup bare URLs Шаблон:Use dmy datesFergus Blackie was a former justice of the High Court of Zimbabwe. A former attorney (1963), advocate (1966) and senior counsel (1980).

Background

He was born to Scottish parents in Harare and attended St George's College, Harare and Downside School. He briefly entered the monastery at Downside Abbey before going on to study law at University College, Oxford.[1]

He began his judicial career in 1978 when he was appointed a Senior Judge of Water and Administrative Courts, culminating in an appointment to the bench of the High Court in 1986.[2] He fell from power in 2002 after he successfully brought charges against then Justice Minister Patrick Chinamasa for "scandalizing the court"; after the trial, Chinamasa had Blackie arrested and charged with two counts of corruption.

Blackie died in South Africa on April 24, 2021.[3]
