Armed gangs terrorise Pretoria smallholders:
2010-05-10 Robert Botha, 58, stabbed to death, Kameeldrift agricultural holdings
May 10 2010 - Fifty-eight-year-old Afrikaner smallholder Robert Botha was found stabbed to death at his Kameeldrift, Pretoria smallholding just after 3pm, reports Beeld journalist Fanie van Rooyen. He is the latest victim of the violent criminal gangs which are terrorising the Kameeldrift/Leeuwfontein smallholders who are comprised of mostly working-class Afrikaners.
He was found murdered by his two friends who lived in the homestead with him. There are no signs of any break-in nor a truggle, but the registered gun-safe was open and two of his .22 rifles were missing. Nothing else was stolen from the house. The two friends were not at home at the time – and found him upon their return, said warrant-officer Wanda Olivier of the SAPS. No further information about Mr Botha was provided by the news report.
Last week Theunis Pelser, 66, a truck-driver for the J&B Sugars shop at the smallholdings, was shot to death. On 16 April Mrs Suna Steenberg (45) was shot in the head and now is in a coma, on 6 april, a homeschooling-matric pupil, Ernst Hoon, 18, was shot dead by someone from outside while he was asleep in his bed. Olivier said there are ‘no suspects because there were no eye-witnesses and no signs of a struggle or a break-in’. http://www.beeld.com/Suid-Afrika/Nuus/Kameeldrift-Man-op-sy-hoewe-doodgesteek-20100511
