Political violence
Flagrant violation of the rule of law on Mount Carmel farm
Sokwanele Article: April 16th, 2009We have added captions and background information to this footage, circulated to the media, of Ben Freeth's recent visit to his father-in-law's farm (on Good Friday, 10 April 2009). Shortly after this visit to Mount Carmel, Ben Freeth wrote an open letter to Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai:
Dear Prime Minister Tsvangirai
As you are aware I wrote an open letter to you 2 weeks ago asking where we were going because "soon it will be too late."
I likened our country’s economy to that of an engine that is continuing to be stripped. Unfortunately the stripping process has increased in momentum significantly since my letter; and police unfortunately remain complicit with it.
