A Zimbabwean soldier has reportedly moved to evict a white farmer who owns the Denlynian Game Ranch with his South African children in Beitbridge, Zimbabwe.

According to Southern Eye, the farmer Ian Ferguson also owns a citrus farm, Benfer Estate, which he established 48 years ago.

The report said at least 30 000 trees were dying due to disruptions at the property.

Ferguson alleged that Darlington Muleya, who was believed to be a soldier, had arrived in a convoy of three vehicles claiming to have an offer letter that allowed him to take over the estate immediately.

Ferguson said a police officer commanding Beitbridge district confirmed that Muleya had shown them the offer letter.
