Specific Cases Ÿ High Court Judge Justice Felistus Chatukuta interdicted the Harare City Council from proceeding with constructing a bus terminus to be called Rhodesville Holding Bay and an informal sector traders’ market on a wetland in Coronation Park. The wetland is a catchment area providing fresh water for Harare, and Coronation Park is a wetland reserved as a park by the Harare City Council and not fit for development of projects, which the local authority had embarked upon. Ÿ In September, High Court Judge Justice Pisirayi Kwenda ordered the University of Zimbabwe to stop all construction work on the campus’ wetland without an environmental impact assessment certificate. The Harare Wetlands Trust had sought to interdict the university which had begun to construct a service station and shopping complex on the wetland near the corner of Churchill Avenue and Upper East Road. Ÿ In December the ZLHR moved to stop Manyame Rural District Council from selling off land situated in a wetland to private developers, in a transaction which was opposed by villagers who use the piece of land for communal cattle grazing. Stanley Mabika, a resident of Rusirevi Village in Seke, wrote to the Ministry of Lands, Agriculture and Rural Resettlement notifying the authorities of the fact that the Manyame Rural District Council had allegedly sold off communal land between Besa and Zinanga Villages in Seke to private developers, including Patrick Zinanga and Steward Rusirevi. 51 STATE OF HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT ZIMBABWE 2018
