Kobus Joubert was one of the few remaining large scale tobacco growers left in Zimbabwe
By Peta Thornycroft in Johannesburg 7:08PM BST 26 Oct 2010
Kobus Joubert, 67, was shot dead and his wife Mariana, 64, was assaulted by assailants who also robbed them of $10,000 (£6,300) in cash.
When attackers beat up Mrs Joubert, they also took her laptop accusing her family of being members of Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai's Movement for Democratic Change, now in a shaky inclusive government with Mr Mugabe's Zanu PF party.
"We are not sure whether this murder was criminal or political, at this stage, and this is very sensitive matter for our members," said Mike Clark, who monitors unrest on remaining white-owned farms for the Commercial Farmers' Union.
"Kobus had about 50ha (123 acres) of tobacco in the ground when he died and so that has to be reaped somehow."
Mr Joubert was one of the few remaining large scale tobacco growers left in Zimbabwe.

Two years ago, Mr Joubert, a former president of the Zimbabwe Tobacco Association, was attacked by militants loyal to Robert Mugabe, the Zimbabwean president,
The couple were forced to flee their home, Scottsdale farm, in the Chegutu district about 60 miles west of Harare, and set up camp in the grass alongside a national highway for several weeks.
When the police tried to move them away, the couple protested saying that they had no other home.
The late vice President Joseph Msika, who had tried to assist several white farmers since land invasions began in 2000, secured a permit for Mr Joubert to remain in his home and continue farming.

Armed gang robs crèche – children traumatised

SIX children have been severely traumatised after five armed men forced their way into an educare centre in Kenwyn, attacking the principal and locking the children in a room before making off with R60 000 in cash.

Police said two of the brazen thieves pushed through a safety gate at Iqra Educare in Leafmore Road, Kenwyn, at about 9am yesterday and threatened to shoot the 43-year-old principal.

“The men locked the six children into a room and, a few minutes later, another two men came in. They were searching the house, from which the educare is run, asking the principal for keys to the safe. They threatened to hurt her baby.

“They got the money and left. There was a driver in the SUV GMW which drove towards Racecourse Road (Kenilworth),” said Lansdowne police spokesperson Nkululeko Mnyaka.

Mnyaka said a case of house robbery has been opened.

“No shots were fired and no arrests have been made. The two suspects who came in first were about 1.7m tall, well built and dark in complexion with round faces.

“They were using devices similar to police hand radios. The other men were also dark in complexion, thinly built and one was wearing a stripped T-shirt and beige hat,” Mnyaka said.

The principal of the educare centre could not be reached for comment.

Lansdowne Community Policing Forum (CPF) chairperson Rafique Foflonker said the entire community was in shock.

“It is of extreme concern when a group of armed men can force their way into property where children are being looked after,” said Foflonker.

“The crèche had closed for the year on Wednesday, but a few children came in today (Thursday) because their parents had arranged for them to be there. They were supposed to go on an outing.

“So we have a situation where children aged between three and five were being forced by men wielding firearms into a room before stealing a large sum of money. We were informed that the parents had paid the remainder of their school fees for the year on Wednesday, so it is clear that these guys must have been tipped off.

“I visited the centre earlier and the kids and owner still looked severely traumatised.”

Kenwyn resident and CPF cluster chairperson Hanif Loonat said: “They must have known the money was there. Why else would they ask for the keys to the safe and they were also in communication with someone who knew because they had radios.

“This is very disturbing as it shows criminals will go to any length to steal. These are children who have been affected and will most likely be traumatised by these actions for life.”

Couple killed for cigarettes and phone

NEWS/CRIME-COURTS /
15 December 2015 at 11:31am
By: ZELDA VENTER
Pretoria - An elderly Limpopo couple were so gruesomely killed - their throats cut from ear to ear and severed to the bone - that a veteran pathologist who performed the autopsy said he was shocked by what he had seen.

The high court in Pretoria was told the slain pair were cut with clinical precision.

The couple lost their lives for some cigarettes and a cellphone.

Given Patrick Mtsweni, 25, of Boekenhouthoek in Limpopo is facing two charges of murder following the death of Dumisani Shongwe and his wife Alice Magagula in the early hours of November 3, 2013. The couple were in their 60s.

Both were asleep in their home when they were allegedly attacked by Mtsweni.

The State alleges Mtsweni knocked on the door of the couple’s home, which also served as a spaza shop, at 2am.

When Shongwe opened the door, Mtsweni allegedly grabbed him by the neck and forced him back into the house. He then allegedly strangled him with both hands and left his limp body on the floor.

It is said that Mtsweni next went to the bedroom, where he found the sleeping Magagula. She was allegedly raped before her throat was slit.

According to the State, Mtsweni returned to the lounge where he had left the husband and also slit his throat.

A neighbour who went to the house to buy airtime made the gruesome find. He discovered the body of Shongwe next to the front door in a pool of blood. His wife was found dead in the bedroom in a kneeling position. She was clad in a night dress and wearing no underwear.

Mtsweni denied any knowledge of the incident although he was found in possession of the couple’s cellphone.

He explained that he bought it from someone in a tavern long after the incident was said to have taken place. But cellphone records showed that he had used the phone a few days after the alleged killing.

In a statement made to a magistrate, he confessed to being at the scene when the pair were killed, but said it was not him. Mtsweni explained that he was heading to a tavern with a friend he had met in the street. He wanted to buy cigarettes and the friend suggested they go to the spaza shop.

Mtsweni said after they knocked on the door and the man opened it, his friend grabbed the man around the neck. He suffocated the old man and left him on the floor. “He told me to look out for anyone entering the premises, before he entered the bedroom. He came back, took a knife and went back to the bedroom, where he slit the old woman’s throat. He threatened me with death if I told anyone what happened.”

Mtsweni said he was given the cellphone and cigarettes and they parted ways.

However, in court he said he was assaulted to make the confession before he was taken to the magistrate. He denied that the contents of the document were correct, but he could not answer why the magistrate would conspire to make a false statement, implicating him in the murders.

Judgment will be delivered on January 15.

South African Leftists Driven off Farm by “Refugees”

DECEMBER 24, 2015 BY TNO STAFF— IN AFRICA

Two South African white liberals who opened their farm to hundreds of Central African invaders who had fled “xenophobic violence” in that country, have had to flee in fear for their lives after their adopted “refugees” took over their farm and physically drove them off.

Image


idiots

According to a report in local media News24, the two leftists, Andrew and Rae Wartnaby, have been threatened with murder by the same people they had set out to help.

The drama began in July 2015 when the Wartnabys “opened their 20-hectare farm to 143 foreign nationals, including children,” who were displaced during “xenophobic attacks” by South African blacks upon other black illegal immigrants from central Africa.

South Africa—which still is living on the declining remnants of the white-created infrastructure and economy—is an attractive option for central Africans, as it is far more advanced than their own self-created hellholes. Hundreds of thousands have poured across the borders, and local blacks have been incited against them, under the impression that they are going to compete for the rapidly declining number of “jobs” which the white population can provide.

Image

According to an article in News24 at the time, the Wartnabys said they were “heartbroken” when they heard that the local municipality was closing the single remaining “refugee” camp in the area.

“The couple’s hearts sank further when they heard that foreigners had been arrested and separated from their children on Friday after illegally occupying the camp,” the original News24 article continued.

After persuading the authorities not to prosecute the arrested blacks, the two leftists decided they had enough space on their farm to house the central Africans, mostly from the Democratic Republic of Congo and Burundi.


“We just have a heart for children,” Rae Wartnaby said. “I wanted to go to Durban and help, but God said to me that I should not get involved now. He said we must wait and he would need us in the end.”

The central Africans were given housing, food and clothing by the Wartnabys, helped by the “Gift of the Givers, the South African Council of Churches, Islamic Relief and various churches.”

The Wartnabys were widely praised in the South African media and described as “good Samaritans” and “angels” who were examples of how “tolerance” and “understanding” could work.

Now, five months later, the Wartnabys have had to flee their own farm. The ungrateful Africans have utterly destroyed the property and have also accused the Wartnabys of “not helping them to be relocated back home or to another country,”—in other words, not giving them enough money, passports, or the ability to go back home, as if this were their responsibility in the first place.

The Africans attacked their home in the early hours of the morning last week, and threated to kill Andrew. He told News24 that they had cut and broken down the fence around the house, and then, “in the early hours of the morning, at around 2 a.m., they came smashing on my windows and doors and saying that they will kill me because I work for the government and I am not helping them.”

He said that as he looked through a window, he saw the tent at the group’s camp engulfed in flames. “I immediately asked if everyone is okay but they kept shouting that tonight was my night and they will kill me. I haven’t slept since then.

“When we took everyone in, we said we would try and help, which we have. But they feel like it has been too long and we let them down. I have asked that group to leave my farm, but they refuse to and to be honest, I don’t know what is going to happen. All I know is that I don’t want to be murdered tonight,” said Andrew.

The Africans are still in control of the farm at time of writing, and the leftist whites, who might or might not have learned their lesson, are in hiding.

Murder: Johan de Beer, 64, talented Afrikaner lecturer: gruesomely murdered at Pretoria University Musaion-building
7 January 2016 - The University of Pretoria spokeswoman Anna-Retha Bouwer said the colleagues of former university lecturer Johan de Beer are 'deeply shocked and heart-broken' about his gruesome death.
Journalist Theana Breugem of the Naspers media group reports that he was found in a toilet with his hands tied. 'Shoemarks show that the former lecturer and university employee 'fought fiercely for his life before a plastic bag was pulled over his head. There were more than one attacker, the crime scene indicates.
Security personnel found the 64-year-old poet's body Wednesday-morning early on 6 January 2016 in the Musaion-building at the Hatfield campus after his wife reported him missing.
His wife Coosie said that her husband usually arrived home at 16h00. When he hadn't shown up by Tuesday at 18h00 she contacted a colleague - who asked the security personnel to check
his movements on their closed-circuit tv-camera network. It was seen that he stepped from his office on Tuesday between 13h00 and 13h45. An SMS confirmed that he withdrew
cash at 13h58 from a bank on campus and walked in a southerly direction. That was the last view of him.
"The security personnel then searched the campus and found him murdered on Wednesday at around 04h30.
De Beer lectured architecture for 17 years at the university. He retired in 2006 (*many whites were forced to retire from government-service in that time).
He then went to Mysore, India to work there. Then he worked as a catering manager at the university. De Beer loved to write poetry and his poet-friends called him Jannas. In 2003 he published a boek of Afrikaans poems, 'Vruggebruik'.
He was a gifted musician, playing the guitar, piano, harmonica. 'Any instrument he put his hands on, he played," said his widow Coosie.
The couple were married for 38 years. "When I opened my eyes in the morning, a small glass of water would be on my bedside table with a rose-bud in it. He always drove to work
before I did. Whenever I got to my car, there would be a pink rose in my car door's handle,' said his widow. He leaves two children, Rohan (36) and Jaconett (31) and a grandchild.
The university spokeswoman said that upon completion of the police's investigation, their own internal investigation will continue.

24 Free State farmers in police-cells after 2 black-racists -- who attacked 83-year-old Afrikaner farmer Lodie Van der Westhuizen -- were shot dead:

8 January 2015 -- The Front National legal advisor says that initially, four Afrikaner farmers who had allegedly shot dead two black attackers to protect 83-year-old farmer Lodie van der Westhuizen during a farm-attack - were locked up summarily for 'murder' and were all refused bail.

Advocate Carlo Viljoen also said that then some 20 Afrikaner farmers who showed up outside the Parys Magistrate's Court to support their locked-up colleagues, were also arrested -- and will only be able to apply for bail after the weekend.
https://www.facebook.com/boerekrisisaksie/?fref=ts#
----------
In an -- apparently -- seperate development-- (the reports seem different in many aspects?) -- the Netwerk24.com 's journalist Alet Van Der Walt also reported on 8 Jan 2016 that in Parys (Free State) "An elderly farmer from the district Weiveld was attacked on Wednesday 6 July by two (black) males when he arrived at his farm-house. The farmer's daughter Alet Rademeyer said the two blacks ambushed him. Her father only saw one of the attackers -- who
forced the old man to unlock his door and 'demanded money'. He was identified as "Loedie van der Westhuizen (73)' by the Beeld journalist.
She wrote: "While Mr van der Westhuizen and the one attacker moved down the hallway, the farmer pushed the emergency button.
The black man "got frightened" and pistol-whipped Mr van der Westhuizen across his brow 'before fleeing'. Mr Van der Westhuizen required stitches to close up the wounds on his brow and he also sustained injuries to his arms.
Alerted farmers rushed to the scene and one of the attackers was arrested. Netwerk24. https://censorbugbear.org/farmitracker/ ... /view/4059

A police officer was decapitated when his car collided with a wall on the N1 after he was attacked by a prisoner he was transporting, Gauteng traffic police spokesperson Busaphi Nxumalo said on Thursday.

She said the Limpopo officer was taking the man to Pretoria for a court appearance.

The prisoner was handcuffed with his hands in front of him where he was seated in the back. He attacked the detective while they were driving in the N1, north of Pretoria, said a Modimolle police officer.

“He choked the warrant officer from behind. The officer lost control of the car on the highway near the Stormvoël Road off-ramp and drove into a wall.”

Nxumalo said the officer was decapitated in the crash and was found dead on the scene.

“His head was cut off from the neck.”

Nxumalo said the prisoner was severely injured and was transported to hospital under police guard.

“The man, who is originally from Limpopo, is now facing multiple charges.”
