Mashonaland Central Provincial Minister Martin Dinha has confirmed in an exclusive interview with Studio 7 that First Lady Grace Mugabe has applied for a license to run Arnold Farm also known as Manzou Farm as an animal sanctuary.
Dinha this week had claimed that the first family was not involved in seizing the farm from villagers, who settled on it in 2000.
Police moved in last week to evict the villagers despite a court order to halt the evictions without offering the villagers altenative land.
Dinha tells Studio 7's Blessing Zulu that by next week national parks will release lions and elephants onto the farm.
Blessing Zulu also reached the lawyer representing the family that are facing eviction, Tonderai Bhatasara, a member lawyer of the Zimbabwe Lawyers for Human Rights. Bhatasara is a member lawyer of the Zimbabwe Lawyers for Human Rights.
