HIGH Court judge Justice Hlekani Mwayera has ordered top
army officer, Colonel Never Makuyana, to vacate former Zanu PF Manicaland youth
leader Mubuso Chinguno’s Chipinge West Farm.
Makuyana invaded the 100-hectare farm in June this year
with the help of armed soldiers taking advantage of the absence of Chinguno who
had fled the country following last November’s ‘soft coup’ on former President
Robert Mugabe.
On July 3, Justice Mwayera ordered Makuyana to immediately
vacate the property and stop disrupting Chinguno’s farm operations.
“The fourth respondents or anyone acting through him or
under his instructions be and are hereby ordered to stop immediately all
evictions of the applicant and removal of his property of farm,’’ she ruled.
“The fourth respondent (Makuyana) or anyone acting through
him or under his instructions in particular members from the Zimbabwe National
Army be and hereby interdicted from entering any part of the applicant’s farm
where he is presently occupying and staying.”
Chinguno’s lawyers Mareanadzo and Mvere Partners had cited
Makuyana, Lands minister Perrance Shiri, Manicaland provincial and district
lands officers as respondents in the matter. Newsday
