Zanu PF activists invade Anglican Church farm

ZANU PF activists, who invaded the Anglican Church-owned Cyrene Farm in Figtree, Matabeleland South province, have been accused of invoking the ruling party’s name to resist eviction.

Anti-riot police had to intervene last Wednesday after the invaders, who were clad in Zanu PF attire, blocked the deputy sheriff from evicting them and threatened to burn the church’s vehicle.

The invaders have vowed to stay put despite the existence of a High Court order HC2444/03, which prohibits them from occupying the farm.
