Lephalale doctor murdered on farm

Thoughts and prayers. May Doc rest in peace, and may his wife, now a widow, recover quickly from her physical injuries.
Unfortunately, we are forced to accept that the emotional trauma will probably never heal.

RIP and strongs to his family.

So sorry to see that you have lost a good friend and in such an unnecessary and traumatic way.

RIP to your friend.
Quick recovery to his wife.
Cops do nothing and if they do, terrorists are out on parole by sunset.

Count on farms for 2017:
Attacks 302
Murders 61

And it is not done yet.

Knew the Doctor and his wife, really good people.

Why???

Myself living on a farm near Ellisras. We are a bit negative currently.

Sterkte Willie en aan die Ellisras gemeenskap.

Die goed maak mens wild in die kop. Elk dag kan dit jou beurt wees volgende.

Hi Willie

Sorry to hear about the loss of your friend and the injuries to his wife. My condolences to you, their family and other friends.

Any news on Mrs's physical recovery?

Update: dr Marriette is recovering in a Pretoria hospital.she is out of icu, and out of danger.
There is still some paralysis of lower limbs, but there is hope of eventually regaining the use of her legs.
I may have reported that she was shot with a .25 ACP, that was wrong. She was shot with a .22 magnum NAA. (The pocket revolver without the trigger guard.)
That was unfortunately more powerfull than a .25, but still less than a 9 mm P.

That is good news for her.
As for the firearm, obviously stolen or even worse a firearm handed in for destruction.
