On her return visit to Kariba and staying with us again, she told us that she kept repeating to the editor "there was no rape...I'm telling you there was no rape" but he nevertheless insisted it be added to the story.

Shamefully, the British Foreign Secretary, David Owen remained silent,and not one word of condemnation came out of his mouth, as with his superior, the despicable Labour Prime Minister, James Callaghan. In less than two years, Rhodesia was sold down the road by a Conservative Government, under the equally despicable Thatcher and her little weazle, Carrington. I hope the sub-human filth who carried out this indescribable act of evil, burn in hell. Rhodesia will always live forever in my heart.
