Residents have taken action. Land disputes remain a complex issue in community relations. In Ambodifasina, within the Avarajozoro fokontany, Ambatolampy Tsimahafotsy district, people who have occupied land for 40 years now face claims from someone presenting legal documents asserting ownership. Local residents staged a protest and mobilized to reclaim their land. Some residents were injured during the confrontation, while others suffered psychological trauma from the eviction attempt. In June, individuals claiming to be the land owners arrived with court documents and a surveyor, removing people from the disputed land, including many families, houses, and infrastructure. According to Avarajozoro fokontany chief Randria Hajatamby Jacques Noël, the local population was not informed about the eviction beforehand; it was the authorities who initiated the fokontany and police action. The claimants presented documents to the fokontany chief, which alarmed the remaining residents. The chief stated that state authorities were not properly informed about these individuals, which prompted the authorities' intervention. He emphasized that these people have occupied the land for 40 years. The land belongs to a foreigner who acquired it in 1985 through a ministerial decision; this minister, his descendants, and appointed individuals have since lived on and cultivated the land. The current claimants say they have no clear knowledge of who actually owns the property. The case has been escalated to court, with residents challenging the June eviction order. The landowners are awaiting the court's decision. Meanwhile, the residents have already rebuilt shelters and are reoccupying the disputed land. "We are calling on the Head of Reforms to examine this matter closely, as our land is being taken unjustly," the residents stated.
