Militants try to evict farming family
The standoff at a farm northeast of Harare came nearly a week after a government deadline passed for 2,900 white farmers to leave their land as part of the government’s land reform programme.
Police were called to the Condwelani farm near Bindura, 55 miles from Harare, but did not immediately intervene, said Jenni Williams, spokeswoman for Justice for Agriculture, a white farmers’ support group.
