If this article is accurate, this particular case sounds justified. It seems the Molamu family's land was taken, similar to what we'd call "eminent domain abuse," except they were told where they could and could not move to:

Mphela said the farm was once part of four parcels owned by the Molamu family, which was forced to sell under the apartheid government's policy of systematically stripping blacks of land and moving them into townships and "homelands." Descendants of the Molamus filed a claim seeking restitution.

Now their descendants are reclaiming the land. That's something we should support.
