| Death threat sent to the Hubbard family of Hilton Farm, Nyamandlovu in December 2000 by invaders occupying their farm. The letter threatens that the Hubbards would be “breakfast for Christmas” and would meet the same fate as Martin Olds from the same area who was murdered on Independence Day, 18 April 2000.

| This man was abducted at gunpoint on the night of 18 May 2000, manhandled and driven in a vehicle stolen from Roy Bennet, MDC candidate for the Chimanimani constituency. He was taken to Bennet’s farm which had been occupied by so-called war veterans. At the farm he was beaten in the presence of the chief of the local CIO until he renounced the MDC and promised to support Zanu PF. He was given a programme to support Zanu PF, and then taken back to Chimanimani. On 19 May he reported the assault to the police. When this photograph was taken, the photographer was told by a ‘war veteran’ that if it was published he and the victim would be killed.
