Land disputes

Elderly woman assaulted over land dispute

It is a source of disharmony and people should take the matter up with local authorities. Justice Panuel Mogish recently made the remarks after a Rigo man attacked an old woman.

Justice Mogish told Rawali Geno that elderly people must be treated with respect and attacking a defenseless and vulnerable woman was uncalled for, even though she uprooted plants on a disputed land.

“This woman is related to you. I would strongly urge parties to solve the land dispute before someone is killed and seriously injured.
