Trying to Locate old Zim' friends

With all the communications difficulties and chaos in Zimbabwe in recent years I've fallen out of touch with some old hunting mates in Zimbabwe . . . and can't seem to be able to track them down.

/1/ BEN KOTZE - formerly of Karoi
and
/2/ JOHAN CARINUS, formerly of Mhangura - Doma

Emails sent to old addresses bounce back, and I've looked at the SOAZ, and ZPHGA, websites for their contacts but neither are listed.
And the usual Google searches, and Rhodesians Worldwide listing come up negative. Emmie at the ZPHGA is reviewing their records this coming week, but I thought I'd post here on AR as well.

Does anyone know if Ben, or Johan are still hunting? . . . Zimbabwe? or Elsewhere?
Any info or contact details are much appreciated. PM's most welcome.

THANKS.

Johan is a friend but have not seen him in several years. You might try Theo Bronkhorst of Bushman Safaris in Bulawayo. They hunted quite a bit together. I last hunted with him near Victoria Falls in 2004. In fact I sold him all my 416Rigby Ammo after I filled my license. I liked his 416Rigby CZ550 so much when I first saw it I built one of my own.
