  • Mother & Daughter Francina and Selina Netshakhuma have lived and worked on a farm near Musina for several years. When the farm was sold the new owner no longer required their services and threatened them with eviction without giving them an alternative place to go. The Legal Resources Centre has assisted them with legal advice and prevented them from becoming homeless. This case illustrates the vulnerability of rural farm workers who have no security of tenure. Near Musina, Limpopo, South Africa.<br />

<br />
Mothlabe is a small community in the midst of the Platinum belt North of Rustenburg. During the apartheid era they were forced under the rule of a neighbouring Traditional Authority and the village boundaries redrawn.  In the late 1990’s they submitted a claim for land restitution but the claim came back as a failure but no reasons where given. They have since appealed but heard nothing. In 2004, a platinum mine began operating on the land in question and it’s profits have been used to develop other villages. When the Mothclabe community proposed independence by forming their own Traditional Authority they were issued with a court interdict preventing them from holding meetings and using the term ‘Mothlabe Traditional Authority.’  The Legal Resources Centre has since successfully defended them in court against the interdict. Meanwhile Mothlabe remains poor and restitution of their land is no closer.  <br />
