Assaulted on 12nd October 2011, passed away in hospital 8th April 2012. * The man who shot and killed Charles Anderson four years previously was sentenced to death by the Zimbabwe High Court in 2006. 31 year old Munetsi Kadzinga was given the death sentence by high court Judge Bharat Patel after he was convicted of the 2002 murder. The South African Mail and Guardian newspaper reports that Kadzinga claimed in court that he had been told to carry out attacks on white farmers by senior government officials, including Minister John Nkomo, who ran the Home Affairs ministry at the time. But the judge dismissed the claims and said there were no extenuating circumstances in the case. About 18 white farmers were killed in violent takeovers of their land while almost all of the countrys 620,000 permanent and seasonal farm-workers were driven away from their homes John Worsley-Worswick, the head of Justice for Agriculture, a Harare-based lobby group, said. Together with dependents, those workers accounted for two million people, he said. Extortion and targetted attacks: A new wave of intimidation replaced the farm invasions and theft. Five murders were commited in the past four years within a 40 km radius as farmers are expected to pay large amounts of extortion money to political authorities. The tragic and very brutal murder of Malcolm Francis and his daughter, Catherine, on a farm to the north of the country highlights the fragile nature of life without the rule of law. They were attacked in the evening of 10th May, 2014 in Guruve when walking the dogs. They survived from axe wounds for several days before succumbing in hospital.
