Families in Zimbabwe evicted to pave way for Mugabe game park and cattle farms...

Zimbabwean police on Monday [February 6, 2012] evicted some new farmers in Mazowe in Mashonaland Central province to pave way for the expansion of some farming activities for the country’s first family, the Mugabes.

Informed sources told Radio VOP that several families were evicted by armed police from their farming plots which they were allocated under the chaotic land reform programme. The new farmers and their families were evicted from Arnold farm and Mbuya Nehanda farm in Manzou area in Mazowe, about 20 kilometres outside Harare.

Police armed with truncheons and dogs evicted the new farmers and dumped them in Concession, in the same province, to allow President Robert Mugabe and his wife Grace and their family to set up a game park and a cattle-breeding project at the two farms. Full story...
