HARARE Raul Jimenez Mexico Jersey , May 23 (Xinhua) -- Two white farmers, an elderly man and his young daughter, died after being "brutally attacked" on their farm in northeast Zimbabwe, the latest violence that targeted the country's wealthy racial minority, a farmers' union said Friday.
Commercial Farmers Union of Zimbabwe (CFU), which represents the interests of Zimbabwe's remaining 1 Rafael Marquez Mexico Jersey ,300 white farmers, announced in a statement the passing away of Malcolm Francis and Catherine Francis who own a farm in Guruve district in Mashonaland Central province. They were attacked on the farm on an evening walk.
An earlier report by local Daily News said Catherine was suspectedly gang-raped and police picked up knobkerries with metal heads and condoms at the murder scene. Malcom Francis, the father, was severely injured and died days after the crime.
Police have not yet responded to press requests.
Charles Taffs, president of CFU, said members of the union "condemn this cowardly attack on an elderly man and a young woman and its barbaric brutality in the strongest of terms."
"In addition we are greatly troubled by the total silence from our authorities Oribe Peralta Mexico Jersey , as well as our leaders, around this event," Taffs said, adding that there are "many other murders and other atrocities" committed over the last 14 years during the land reform that are yet to be resolved and their perpetrators have yet to be identified and held to account.
Zimbabwe's white farmers, numbered around 6,000 upon independence in 1980 Orbelin Pineda Mexico Jersey , were pillar of the robust agriculture sector then as they occupied nearly 40 percent of the country's prime farmland.
The government carried out a "willing-buyer-willing-seller" scheme in the 1980s and 1990s to repurchase the land to be allocated to black Zimbabweans. But economic crisis in late 1990s crippled the exercise and gave birth to the controversial "fast- track land reform" program in 2000.
Over the next few years, 3,500 white farmers were chased away from their farms. Violence was recorded during the process.
Zimbabwe's relations with the West also deteriorated after the western nations came out to condemn the land reform as serious violation of human rights. But the government defends the land reform citing justice in taking back the land that originally belonged to black Zimbabweans.
Online gambling is one of the fastest growing internet sectors and with annual online gambling revenues estimated at as much as ?13billion, it seems that everyone is scrambling to get on the bandwagon. Like most ventures on the Internet some of the new gambling websites have bricks and mortar pedigree, but the rest are pure cyberspace ventures. In the UK operators such as Ladbrokes, William Hill and Coral are building their online presence Miguel Layun Mexico Jersey , and at the same time expanding away from their traditional markets. But Internet enterprises such as Bet 365 are also thriving, and indeed making their own inroads into the retail sector. So, who would you trust to give you the best betting tips and the best returns?
There is no simple answer. It all depends what floats your boat, and what's available. As a rule of thumb though, if you are UK-based, stick to enterprises that are based here in the UK. If you deal with major names you will have more chance of recourse should it all go wrong. Of course Marco Fabian Mexico Jersey , others will say that the odds offered by the major names aren't as generous as those from the less established companies, so risk it once in a while. Indeed, what have you got to lose.. apart from your hard-earned cash?!
But, bear in mind that online gambling is becoming increasingly difficult for US citizens, with the more conservative politicians trying to abolish it altogether. Although most of the sites carry a "health warning", often they do not allow you to set your own weekly financial limits that once exceeded prevent further play on that website. Health warnings on responsible sites highlight the risks of uncontrolled betting. You should stay firmly within your own financial limits and only punt what you can afford to lose. See it as the entertainment it is and not some form of bizarre investment as that way lies ruin! There are very few people Jose de Jesus Corona Mexico Jersey , other than the bookmakers themselves, who can consistently profit from betting; the rest of us will lose.
Anyway enough of the health warnings and back to tipping! Before the internet revolution the best betting tips were traditionally given on horses or greyhounds, usually by someone in the know such as a stable boy, or a trainer. Now, best betting tips can come from just about anywhere. With spread betting you can punt on everything from sport to city share prices and reality show results! So, along with the proliferation of different markets comes an abundance of diverse tipsters. Try entering 'tipster' into Google and take a look through the 700 Jonathan dos Santos Mexico Jersey ,000 results returned!
As always there has never been an easy or guaranteed way to win at gambling and gambling online is the same; anyone who tells you otherwise is lying. So, when looking for the best betting tips on the web always bear one thing in mind - they are just that - tips.. nothing is guaranteed. So, make sure that you keep a firm grasp on reality and your wallet!
