No prosecution for farm killings – Mugabe

President Robert Mugabe has reportedly said that suspects accused of killing white former commercial farmers during the country's controversial reform programme are immune to prosecution. ‘Yes, we have those (white farmers) who were killed when they resisted. We will never prosecute those who killed them,’ News Day quotes Mugabe as saying. He was addressing thousands of his ruling Zanu-PF party supporters in the farming town of Marondera, about 80km east of Harare. At least 12 white commercial farmers were killed by suspected Zanu-PF activists during the fast-tracked agrarian reforms that were masterminded by Mugabe's administration in 2000.
