FARM INVASIONS UPDATE
 
FRIDAY 7 JULY 2000
   
 
MASHONALAND CENTRAL
Mvurwi - War vets at Rufaro and Arda demanded transport and were refused.  The owners of Umsengedzi and Sanford have been advised that their farms are to be pegged today.
Harare West/Nyabira - revisits and pegging is taking place but the area is reasonably quiet.
 
MASHONALAND EAST
Harare South/Beatrice  -  Yesterday war vets and their followers pegged Kerry, Stirling, Presgrave, Mhiri, Durham, Evergreen and Dunrobin, threatening to return today with reinforcements.  In the vicinity of Dunrobin and Evergreen a police vehicle carrying two uniformed policemen and three civilians was seeking directions to Kerry Farm.  Another was seen with two police details and three civilians.  Police records show that one land rover is from one of the stations in Harare and the other has not yet been allocated to any area.
Wedza - On Rupaka Farm a beast was shot in the eye and died, and another is missing.  Squatters removed the sign for Shaka Farm and have disappeared with it.
Bromely/Ruwa/Enterprise - Extensive pegging has taken place in the grazing, potato and wheat sections of Oribi Farm.  The owner was informed at the war vet camp that the land invasions are no longer a demonstration but a new resettlement programme, and that the allocation of plots would begin today.  Houses are to be erected using timber from the farm's gum plantations and cattle would be moved onto the land.  He was warned not to interfere with these activities.
War vet Chinotimba and followers visited Atlanta, Devonia, Ivordale, Bally Vaughn and Pannar Research Station and told farmer to set up vegetable irrigation projects and provide necessary inputs to enable the war vets on the farm to be productive.  If these instructions were not complied with, the workforce would be prevented from working.
War vets W Hove and others briefed the war vet camp on Devonia Farm, after which the local base commander ordered the owner and manager off the farm.  After an overnight meeting the labour were told to inform the owner that the base commander had commandeered the farm and he was not to return.
Marondera South - On Gresham Farm a war vet who had put all his money into paying for a property, was told by  base commander Wilfred Marimo that he could not have the property, after which the war vet hung himself.  21 Youths from the war vet base beat up the labour on Chipesa Farm.  Police were called in and two security guards beat up one of the youths who was removed to the police station for his own protection.  Workers who have been allocated plots on Tarara Farm have been told to move onto these tomorrow.
Macheke/Virginia - A boom has been set up at the entrance to Highover Farm and poaching of fish has been reported on Faroe Farm.
Marondera North - War vets at the base camp on Dormavale are demanding food in order to celebrate the outcome of the elections, but this has been denied.
 
MASHONALAND WEST NORTH
Tengwe - The owner of Alpha Farm was prevented from collecting bricks from his kiln by war vets who claimed ownership. A report was made to the police.  The owner of Dendanyani was served with a letter demanding food and transport by two elderly invaders.
Chinhoyi - 5 War vets moved onto Sheepridge Farm and intend to build near dam.
 
MASHONALAND WEST SOUTH
Selous - Activity has continued at Arbor and surrounding farms.  Police are aware of the situation but not arresting anyone.  It appears that PROPOL considers the 'administration fee' where the war vets are pegging out land for individuals, to be legitimate.  The owner of the property, who is one of the most productive farmers in the area, employes a large number of people and runs a farm school,  intends to put his workers on notice and cease his farming operations.  On Mount Carmel Farm shots were heard last night in the vicinity of the sable herd.  War vets have started building huts.  A break-in was reported at Pamuzinda Game Park where approximately $200 000.00 worth of goods stolen.
Suri Suri - Pegging continues and on Mkuti Farm war vets opened the gate for the dip and released all the cattle.
Chegutu - Labour has been threatened on Concession Hill Farm and the labour stoppage on Masterpiece Farm continues.

Old Mutare - The game fence on Mountain Home has been cut in two places and both old and new wire has been stolen.  An area has been cleared in the bush with a chainsaw.
Middle Save - The owner of Glocca Mora is planting his crops in land hired from other farmers.
 
MATABELELAND
NTR. 
 
MIDLANDS
Shurugwi - War vet Gunpowder and six others have advised the owner of Edwards Farm that they will be occupying it shortly.
Kwe Kwe - Yesterday war vets confiscated the weapons of the game/crop guards on Pitscottie Farm then informed the owner and told him to vacate the farm.  Today they are positioned outside the security fence and not allowing the farmer to leave.  Police have been informed and negotiations are taking place.

Harare South - 40 invaders arrived on Albion and started pegging. On Gilston Estates, about 10 warvets in two pick ups, stopped on the side of the road about 0,5 km from the Harare South Club, put in a few pegs, then left. There was a death threat given to one of the members of the local Taskforce. This has been reported to the Officer-in-Charge. On Presgrave, warvets told the owner they are taking over the farm today. Elladale had a visit from 9 warvets, armed with hand guns and an AK47 and threatened the farm labour. They left a letter for the owner signed by "Julius Matatrusi - DCC War Vet, Chitungwiza", telling him to stop farming. Except for two people, the group was not part of the original invaders. This group said they would kill the warvets with whom the farmer had previously dealt, if they interfered. Police are involved.
Beatrice - There is a great increase in activity. Different groups arrived, pegged and threatened to return today on Georgina, Plumstead, Gilston, Evergreen, Carolina Extension, Presgrave, Nyambiri and Alcarnack (this last farm they wanted to take over a house as a base). The owner on Plumstead locked his gates, so they took down the fence. Police are investigating. The leader of the war vets on Presgrave claims they have been ordered to peg 50 acre plots on all land from Harare South to Featherstone. Nengwa was visited last week and the war vets returned today. The local Taskforce managed to talk them into leaving the farm.
Wedza - An elderly war vet was seen walking on the Markwe Road carrying a gun case - presumably not with golf clubs inside!! Warvets from the district have been called to a meeting by the MP, Chigwadere, brother of the warvet by the same name. A kudu was shot on Ashlynns, but was discovered too late for investigation.
Bromley/Ruwa - On Alberly, the police addressed the issues of gum pole cutting and hut building. The foreman, while on his way to Chitungwiza, was abducted, taken to the warvet camp and assaulted.
Marondera South - On Sunday, four very drunk warvets arrived on Riversmead wanting to check their pegs. They asked the farmer where the pegs in front of the house had gone. He explained he had put his cattle into that field which probably knocked over the pegs. The warvets left.
 
MASHONALAND WEST NORTH
Tengwe - threats of work stoppages have occured on the following farms; Jaybury, Dendanyani and Alpha.
On another farm, farm workers have been intimidated by the invaders. They have had enough and have told
these people that if they step into the farm compound and try to threaten
anyone they will be chased out.  This group of invaders then threatened to
beat up one of the farm workers.   The workers then stood together and told
the invaders that if they beat anyone on the farm they would retaliate.
There was a stand off and the group of invaders then left.
 
The new threats are being made on the instructions of Moyo the area leader
and follow the meeting on Inanda on Sunday.  From information it appears
that Moyo has taken over the Tengwe area and has issued the instructions to
step up the level of intimidation.

MANICALAND
Old Mutatre - 50 invaders arrived at le Grange Store with Pangas. Mr Brian James was attacked -but escaped uninjured. 
Mid-save -the situation is ongoing at Glocca Morra.

MIDLANDS
Kwekwe - Woodridge Farm . War vets from Redcliff arrived and tried to effect an immediate eviction of the owners from the farm. Police and CFU Security reacted. Situation defused. Owners then told to report to the War Vet Office in Redcliff the next day to finalise eviction plans. Nettlethorn Farm  6 drunken war vets from Redcliff office arrived at the farm ordering the immediate eviction of the owner. This was refused. Argument then ensued and owner was accused of the following:
Arming and supporting MDC, having unlicensed firearms and wanting to organise the beating up of war vets in the area. War vets forced their way into the house but were pushed out when farmers wife called on the radio. Police eventually arrived but war vets had since left. Milsonia Farm :Pedigree bull, valued at $50 000, found slaughtered a.m. 5/7/2000. Slaughters of animals on this farm have been a regular occurrence over the last 5 days. Suspected war vet involvement. Igogo Farm  Had an altercation with war vets over stolen goats. Vets threatened to return later to sort him out. Further details unknown at this time. Sunnymeade Farm  Same group of war vets from Nettlethorn Farm approached owners with intention of evicting them. Owners refused and vets left. The Brigadier is now operational again in the Kwekwe area.  Heavy army presence in the Bembezaan commercial farming area along the Kwekwe to Mvuma road. Reason unknown. Police are endeavouring to ascertain reason. 
NB :War vets are under the impression that the preliminary notices of acquisition, served on farmers on listed farms, are in fact eviction orders. Hence the activity by war vets to try and evict owners and staff. Thus far it has been confined to the Redcliff area. War vets are now paranoid that farmers are supporting, financing and arming MDC with the ultimate intention of removing all war vets from the land. The Regional War Vets Office in Gweru is extremely worried about this scenario, which they see as a trend developing throughout the rest of the country.
Somabhula -Boulder Beacon Farm  Large numbers of occupiers coming onto the property since the election, despite the fact that this farm is not listed. Situation quiet.
 
Mashonaland West South
Kadoma - There is a new group on Symington.
Chegutu - On Masterpiece, chopping continues and workers are unable to work. Cattle are not able to be moved on.

HARARE, Zimbabwe (PANA)- Zimbabwean white farmers, besieged by a government anxious to deliver on its land reform election promises, said on Wednesday they had lodged objections with the authorities over the compulsory acquisition of 500 of more than 800 farms earmarked for redistribution to landless peasants.

President Robert Mugabe's government intends to forcibly acquire half of the 12 million hectares that 4,500 white farmers control to resettle landless peasants under a controversial land reform programme.

Critics accuse the Zimbabwean leader of pursuing the land reform programme for political gain.

Last month the government gave notices of the compulsory acquisition to 804 farmers, allowing them up to the beginning of this month to object to the seizure.

A spokesman for the Commercial Farmers' Union (CFU), which represents the white farmers, said objections had been lodged on 500 of the properties the government had listed for acquisition.

But the farmers immediately made a counter offer of 200 other farms to the authorities.

"Farmers are not just objecting. They are also putting something on the table. We are determined to find a solution to the problem. The offer has always been there and we continue to talk to the government," said CFU president Tim Henwood.

More than 1,500 white-owned farms have been invaded by thousands of veterans of Zimbabwe's independence war veterans and landless peasants to press demands for land reform in the southern African country whose economy is driven by agriculture.

The farm occupations have drawn international condemnation of Mugabe's government, which used land reform as its trump card in last month's parliamentary elections, which it narrowly won.

Under its land reform programme, the government wants former colonial power Britain to compensate the farmers whose properties are seized as part of obligations agreed in an independence deal.

London has made its financial aid conditional on an end to the farm occupations.

Gracelands sold for $35m

Brian Hungwe

THE Libyan embassy has purchased the controversial Gracelands property in Borrowdale Brooke which was built for a staggering $20 million with public funds from the so-called VIP housing scheme, the Zimbabwe Independent has learnt.

Government sources told the Independent that the deal was brokered about five months ago and the Libyans would be moving into the posh house anytime now.

Although no figures were available on how much the property could have sold for, an independent property consultant familiar with property deals in the area and who requested anonymity confirmed that the Libyans purchased the property and estimated it was valued at between $30 million and $36 million.

"The total land, from my understanding cost slightly above $6 million and the house cost just close to $20 million to build," he said.

The source added that though the outside architectural design was not friendly to the eye, the internal finishings were very costly. The kitchen, for example, had to be redone a record three times to satisfy the tastes of the house’s owner, First Lady Grace Mugabe.

A sister company to John Sisk building contractors handled the renovation of the kitchen but Mrs Mugabe was reportedly not pleased with the workmanship and it had to be redone.

"Other finishings were of a high standard pushing the price up to around $35 million, which I believe is fair for anyone interested in purchasing the property," the consultant said.

The Independent’s inquiries at the Deeds Registry yesterday showed that Grace Mugabe’s two Quin-nington properties had not yet been transferred.

The three-storey house, which is along Armthwaite Road in the heart of prestigious Borrowdale Brooke, is located at stand number 415 Quinnington Township of Stand 221 Quinnington Township 8, measuring 2872ha and the Deeds Transfer number entered at the Registry is 8829/98.

The sum of $78 206 was paid for the land, which is urban state land, which sources at the Deeds Registry said fell well below the market price.

The original purchase was confirmed and signed on August 18, 1997 and Emedia Evelyn Chipadze, in her capacity as assistant se- cretary for the Minister of Local Government, Rural and Urban Development, represented the ministry in the transfer.

The Independent visited the property yesterday morning and established that the Libyans had indeed purchased the property, which is guarded by armed security details from the Zimbabwe Republic Police. There was also a security guard from Scott Security guarding the property.

The staff at the house said that the Libyans purchased it about five months ago. The Libyans were now responsible for their salaries, said the workers, who have been working in the grounds for only a month after replacing the old crew.

An official at the Libyan embassy told the Independent that no-one was going to comment on the issue as it was not for public consumption.

"No-one will give a comment because the issue has got nothing to do with the public," the official said.

The First Lady’s press secretary, Lawrence Kamwi, did not respond to faxed questions.

Aids fear after Zimbabwe rapes

Zimbabwe was gripped by turmoil before elections

Fears are mounting in Zimbabwe that the recent pre-election campaign violence in which a number of women were raped might worsen the already serious Aids situation.

Aids prevention groups said that government supporters waged a campaign of intimidation and violence - including rape - against suspected opposition supporters during the period.

Through that rape they're sentenced to death

Aids activist Kerry Kay

Human rights organisations have also criticised the government for its slow reponse to the growing threat posed by the disease.

Zimbabwe has one of the highest rates of HIV infection in the world, with an estimated one in four adults HIV positive.

More than 200 people are thought to be dying every day from Aids-related illnesses.

Health workers believe the recent violent election campaigns simply made things worse.

Kerry Kay, whose own Aids control programme has virtually closed down because of attacks on its office and workers, says the violence is likely to have serious long-term effects.

"There's a lot of women been raped during the course of this political violence," Mr Kay says.

"What access will they have to antiretrovirals? None whatsoever.

"So through that rape they're sentenced to death."

Zimbabwe's health service has crumbled in the face of the Aids onslaught. Nonetheless, the government continues to spend more on defence than on health.

The authorities are now pinning their hopes on tackling the problem through a recently introduced levy.

Aids levy

Health Minister Timothy Stamps says the government is seriously committed to tackling the problem.

"It's important for us to demonstrate that we are serious about the scourge of Aids and that we are going to do something to counter the threat," Dr Stamps says.

One idea was to impose an extra tax to help fund Aids-prevention programmes.

Such is the mistrust of the government, though, that it was forced to set up an autonomous body to administer the funds.

Six months after collection of the levy began, none of the money has been distributed.

In the meantime, about 1,500 Zimbabweans continue to die every week as a result of HIV and Aids.

White farmers offer Mugabe 400 more farms

By Cris Chinaka

7 July 2000

Zimbabwe's white farmers are offering to sell another 400 farms to President Robert Mugabe's government for its black resettlement programme, bringing to 600 the number of farms made available.

Commercial Farmers' Union (CFU) deputy director Jerry Grant said yesterday the government did not need to pursue its controversial land seizure plans because white farmers were prepared to sell some of their land for a properly managed resettlement programme.

Last month the government published a list of 804 white-owned farms it wants to seize for redistribution to blacks, and gave farmers 30 days until Monday this week to make any appeals. Together, the 804 farms comprise about 10 percent of the estimated 12million hectares (30 million acres) of prime farmland owned by members of the whiteminority.

Mr Grant said farmers were contesting the seizure of more than 500 farms, but were offering hundreds of others for sale.

The government has said it will consider the appeals from farmers on a case-by-case basis and is examining the CFU offers.

A ministry of agriculture official said: "The government will only make a comprehensive statement once it has looked at all the things on the table, but of course it is committed to addressing the land problem this time, once and for all."

***

British Foreign Office Minister Peter Hain warned on Monday that Zimbabwe, which faces its worst economic crisis since independence from Britain in 1980, was likely to see overall economic output falling by 10 percent next year for a second year running. He also spoke of food shortages in coming months.

But CFU vice-president for commodities Colin Cloete said that although planting of wheat was down 20 percent this year because of the farm invasions and fuel shortages, there was more than enough maize for Zimbabwe's 12.5 million people.

Police and army join in Zimbabwe farm occupation

By David Blair at Calgary Farm

TAKING advantage of President Robert Mugabe's vendetta against Zimbabwe's white farmers, army and police officers have occupied a farm after forcing the owner to flee in the face of death threats.

Mr Mugabe has repeatedly supported the illegal land invasions, which have affected 1,684 properties, and the government has transported, fed and paid the squatters. But this is the first evidence of direct state involvement, as the army and police scramble for a share of the spoils. Shocked farmers fear it illustrates a complete breakdown of the rule of law, allowing "anyone to invade a white property and say 'this is mine'".

With eight spacious houses and a turnover exceeding £330,000, Calgary Farm is a plum prize. Irvine Reid, who leases the property, believes that its location 15 miles north of Harare was the main attraction for the new occupiers. He said: "The army and police guys want this place as a weekend retreat."

More than 300 squatters raided Calgary in April, shouting that they would murder the owner, David Wheeler - who by chance was away. Mr Reid said: "He has stayed away. He's now in France. They were quite open in saying they wanted to kill him."

Within days, most of the squatters had disappeared, leaving a hard core of 14 occupiers. Mr Reid realised that they were serving army and police officers. He said: "They come here in uniform. They try to disguise it by wearing long dustcoats, but they are definitely wearing their uniforms underneath."

The policemen arrive in official Land Rovers and their military colleagues appear in vehicles with army number plates. In the run-up to Zimbabwe's election, Calgary became a headquarters for the terror campaign aimed at stamping out the opposition. At least four of the 180 workers were seriously assaulted.

The farm's large carpentry shed was the venue for numerous political meetings at which people were browbeaten into supporting Mr Mugabe's Zanu-PF Party. Mr Reid, his wife, Gayle, and their three children were kept awake night after night by the screams and songs of the squatters and their victims.

Rows of grass shacks show where the occupiers, who appear at weekends and then retreat to Harare, have divided the land into 14 plots. Calgary is not among the 804 farms listed for compulsory acquisition, yet Mr Reid has been ordered to harvest his crops and leave.

He said: "These guys are working outside the law, insofar as there still is a law in this country. Now anyone can invade a white property and say 'this is mine'. It's got nothing to do with helping the landless, it's all about helping the hierarchy."

Zimbabwe farmers say farm anarchy goes on

7 Jul 2000 18:26GMT

HARARE, July 7 (Reuters) - Zimbabwe's liberation war veterans are continuing to wreak havoc on farms two weeks after a narrow general election win by the ruling ZANU-PF party, the Commercial Farmers' Union (CFU) said on Friday.

The elections are now over yet the extortion, destruction of property, theft and threats continue largely unabated on farms, CFU president Tim Henwood said in a statement.

Hundreds of white-owned farms were invaded in the run-up to the June 24-25 election, where President Robert Mugabe's ZANU-PF party narrowly defeated the opposition Movement for Democratic Change.

Last month, the government published a list of 804 white-owned farms it wants to seize for redistribution to blacks.

Farmers are contesting the seizure of more than 500 farms, but are offering hundreds of others for sale in order to ensure a successful resettlement.

Political violence, farm invasions and threats of land seizures have accelerated Zimbabwe's descent into its worst economic crisis since independence from Britain in 1980.

Around 31 people, mostly opposition members, have died in the farm invasions and political violence.

Henwood said farmers, their families and workers were still being subjected to brutal violence, demeaning humiliation, beatings and tragic murder.

The invasions have resulted in a 20 percent decline in the amount of wheat planted this year and led to fears that Zimbabwe may need food aid within months.

Henwood warned that wheat and tobacco production could drop further, as farmers were unable to plan ahead.

The downstream effect on the industry and other sectors of the economy are now being felt and worse is yet to come. The prognosis for foreign exchange availability next year for importation of fuel and power is worsening by the day, he said.

Zimbabwe lacks foreign currency to buy fuel

By TIMOTHY KALYEGIRA

KAMPALA, Uganda, July 7 (UPI) - Acting chairman of the National Oil Company of Zimbabwe Sylvester Nguni said Friday fuel supplies in the country would return to normal only when the economy generates enough foreign currency.

Nguni told journalists in the capital Harare that Zimbabwe does not have enough foreign currency to procure fuel.

State radio reported Friday that a cabinet task force on fuel had warned on Monday that national diesel supplies might temporarily run dry in the next few days because of a technical hitch. It said fuel supplies are expected to revert to 80 per cent of operational capacity once petrol (gasoline) in the Beira pipeline near the border with Mozambique is off-loaded.

Zimbabwe has been facing an acute fuel shortage since March this year owing to the shortage of foreign currency. Long queues around the country's gasoline stations have become a daily chore.

As the economy continues to falter, the country's white commercial farmers warned on Wednesday of complete economic collapse if Zimbabwe did not reverse the policy of invading white-owned farms by war veterans.

The chairman of the powerful, mainly white Commercial Farmers' Union, Timothy Henwood, said the violent attack on the rural farms had so far destroyed up to one fifth of the country's tobacco crop.

The Union represents the 4,500 commercial farmers who are the backbone of the Zimbabwean economy, the second largest in the southern African region after South Africa.

Zimbabwe is, after Brazil, the world's second largest tobacco exporter and earns about 40 percent of its national revenue from the crop.

Henwood said the entire tobacco industry could collapse if the farm invasions were not halted, costing tens of thousands of jobs and sparking off a major financial crisis as farmers default on bank loans.

"Farmers are unable to plan ahead and are not investing in their farms. The situation is simply no longer tenable," said Henwood.

On Tuesday, the European Union in a report warned that future development aid for Zimbabwe depended on the implementation of human rights reforms. The report condemned the widespread violence that preceded the June 24-25 parliamentary elections.

The European commissioner for development, Paul Nielson, said 19 million euros of aid for poverty alleviation would be released, but a further 2 million euros for land reform would be suspended until there was "clarification" of the government's policy.

At The height of the violence and farm invasions in April, Britain, Norway and Denmark suspended various aid programs to President Robert Mugabe's government.
