The BLF has been campaigning for this year's elections on the land platform, calling white people "racist land thieves" and threatening to kill them if they refused to accept land expropriation. The clerk of the Equality Court has been directed to send a copy of the judgment to the DPP for the possible institution of criminal proceedings against the BLF and its leaders.
