Six named members of a farming cooperative were attacked on 13 March, by gunmen reportedly working for an agricultural company, and one was killed. The five survivors are now in prison, but it is not known whether they have been charged. Amnesty International is seriously concerned for their safety, and they may be at further risk because they witnessed the killing of their colleague. .
