I just sent this message to Senator Ron Wyden. I had no idea my land was78 275 hectares! I have not looked at this family in ten years! What have I done!? The 2014 Battle For Ken Kesey Square – HAS BLOWN UP IN SIZE!

Dear Senator: On August 3,2024, I read a United States Federal Court is helping the Pezold family geet back a large track of home in Zimbabwe. I hope this is not a done deal for I lay claim to this land, and all the property once owned by the Schwarzenburg family that I am related to. That court is funded by tax payer’s money. I am a U.S. Citizen. Since when does our Democracy help royals prosper in their own country – and n the country they colonized. I demand you put a hold on the transfer so I can hire an attorney to represent me. Thank you. John Presco
Bernhard von Pezold and his family, who are dual Swiss and German nationals, have enlisted the help of a US federal court in Washington DC in enforcing a US$277 million arbitral award against Zimbabwe which they won after their farmland was grabbed by the government.
In a 318-page award issued on 28 July 2015, a tribunal at the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes ordered Zimbabwe to return the 78 275 hectares it seized in 2005. The farmland was covered under a Bilateral Investment Promotion and Protection Agreement.
If the Zimbabwean government returns title, it will owe US$65m, but if it fails, it will owe US$196m, which has ballooned to US$227m. This amount includes US$1m in “moral damages” for the government’s refusal to provide the family with police protection against violent takeover.
