The High Court has stopped Manicaland Provincial Affairs minister Monica Mutsvangwa from evicting former Zanu-PF youth leader Kudzanai Chipanga from his Headlands farm.
Chipanga through his lawyer Lovemore Madhuku filed an urgent chamber application accusing Mutsvangwa of grabbing his farm and illegally handing it over to white farmers Andrew Dawson and James Chisholm. Speaking to Daily News after the hearing of the case on Wednesday, Madhuku said the complainant and respondents had agreed that Chipanga should return to his farm pending the outcome of an eviction order. Said Madhuku:
We have agreed by consent that the status quo be restored and that Chipanga goes back to the farm and co-exist with the white farmer pending the outcome of an eviction order filed by Chipanga before a different court.
