    Back in 2010, AfriForum took Zim to court over the country’s confiscation of land from white farm owners. The South African civil-rights organisation was assisting a group of dispossessed Zimbabwean farmers in an effort to ‘enforce a 2008 ruling by the Southern African Development Community Tribunal which found that the country’s land grabs unlawful‚ racist and in contravention of international law’.

    The legal battle went through the South African Constitutional Court who awarded the win to AfriForum after Zimbabwe attempted to challenge the ruling.

    To recoup legal funds the country owed the local activist organisation, a house in Kenilworth belonging to Zimbabwe was auctioned off yesterday for the amount of R3.7 m. Arthur Tsimakopoulos‚ a “property flipper”, snapped up the property.

    AfriForum’s Willie Spies was pleased about the auction.

    It is significant to any person who has lost everything to know that‚ at least‚ in the neighbouring countries‚ justice still prevails. People will look at this and say‚ this is not the way to do things‚ the law should be upheld.

    Apparently, Zim Government officials were watching the auction go down, but, obviously, declined to comment.
