Execution in Swaziland in the name of conservation

On 8 August 2008 a young Swazi man, Musa Gamedze, was executed in broad daylight at his home. According to reports, the man who fired the fatal shot was the manager of a local private game reserve accompanied by three police officers. Musa was part of a community that was forcibly evicted by Big Game Parks from land they had lived on for decades. Join us in calling on the PM of Swaziland to uphold the rights of these local communities, bring Musa's killers to justice, and ensure the safety of Friends of the Earth Swaziland.
