Plea to Government on land conflict

Date:

Share post:

For?the second time in two years, Chinese from Chinados Construction descended on the land being occupied by small farmer David Bourne at Maxwell Gardens, Christ Church, and attempted to remove his crops to make way for the construction of a villa.
The Chinese bought the land three years ago and obtained a court order back in 2009 instructing Bourne to vacate the land.
But Bourne, 30, whose family has lived on the land for over six decades, is appealing to Government to intervene and save his crops and his home.
“They want the land for a view, but I want it for food,” he said.
