Burger family, Potchefstroom, attacked at home, July 22 2010.

Burger family Potchefstroom Christiaan 12 JanHarm 10 tied up robbed July232010 Four armed black men invaded the home of Mr Botha Burger and his wife Adele at 3am on July 22 2010, dragged their two young sons Christiaan, 12 and Jan-Harm, 10, from their beds, and tied them up with their parents while their home was looted of some electronic bling and jewellery. http://www.potchefstroomherald.co.za/top10.htm#30

The family home was looted and the bling – including a TV set, two cameras, a laptop computer, cellphones and jewellery – was loaded onto the family bakkie and the gang drove off.  When things quieted down Jan-Harm screamed for help through the open bathroom window to their housekeeper, who lives on the same erf but had somehow not noticed anything untowards whatsoever. She cut them loose and Mr Burger used the housekeeper’s cellphone to contact their security company. His bakkie was found abandoned alongside the road to Parys. Apparently the gang had gained access to the house by bending the burglar-bars in front of the livingroom windows. Another house-robbery als was reported the same week when a resident discovered that a window had been forced open and his TV set stolen. No-one was arrested in either case. http://www.potchefstroomherald.co.za/top10.htm#30

Lizamore newspaper couple – founders of Barberton Times – brutally murdered, Pinetown KZN –

  • he had just complained of an extortion racket targetting the elderly…

 Lizamore Graham 62 and Kate 50 founded Barberton Times murdered Pinetown KZN July 24 2010 NELSPRUIT - The founders of Barberton Times, Mr Graham Lizamore (62) and Ms Kathleen (Kate) Lizamore  (50), were brutally murdered in their home in Pinetown in KwaZulu-Natal last week. The couple had been working in the media industry for many years and got Barberton Times off the ground in 2001. They moved from the Eastern Cape to Durban barely two months ago where Ms Lizamore started working for Independent Newspapers. Their decomposing bodies were discovered on top of a toilet in a bathroom on Friday. Preliminary reports suggest that Mr Lizamore was strangled. A refuse bag was covering Ms Lizamore’s head - indicating that she might have  suffocated. The bodies were later moved to the bedroom where they were carefully examined. No signs of forced entry could be found to their home in Moseley Park. A TV and even a handbag remained untouched in the lounge. The couple was last seen by a neighbour in the complex on Wednesday. Phone calls by family members remained unanswered and a sister of Mr Lizamore went to their home on Friday where she made the gruesome discovery at about 14:30. She was severely traumatised and is currently being hospitalised.The houses are situated close to one another and neighbours said that one could easily have heard screams from that distance. Two cases of murder are being investigated. Ms Michélle Sephton, who was part of the Barberton Times team, described Mr Lizamore as a patient, kind person who had so much love to give. "Kate and Graham were an inspiration to many and made Barberton Times rise out of the ashes like a phoenix, despite many Barberton residents saying that it was an impossible task. They were true pioneers in more ways than one."    

 Gray complained about money being extorted from the aged. Perhaps this is why they were killed…’

New Afrikaner squatter camps mushroom as SA sheds 60,000 jobs:

Afrikaner poor in South africa are denied food aid from ANC regime who says its racist to feed hungry whites (2) The need amongst South Africa’s 3-million Afrikaners now is reaching crisis proportions, with scores of new tented squatter camps mushrooming over the past two months. South Africa shed another 60,000 jobs over the past two months, especially in the gold-mining sector: and it is now  being reported on Farmitrackercom that tens of thousands of new Afrikaner squatters have set up little camps on marginal land-sites, filled with homeless, unemployable young families with small children. These desperate Afrikaner families still are still being denied all food-aid and even disability benefits from the South African government because they are ‘whites’.

SA president Jacob Zuma ‘s office two weeks ago had to personally intervene with ‘denialist’ officials of the SASSA social-welfare agency, forcing them to meet officials of the Helping Hand agency of the Solidarity trade union which organisations are trying to help more than 600,000 poor Afrikaners survive. Zuma’s intervention came after SASSA officials had announced that they knew ‘nothing of any poor-white problems’ and had therefor not budgeted for providing any emergency food-aid nor social-welfare payouts to poor whites.

Zuma’s office ordered SASSA to meet with representatives of Helping Hand to inform themselves of the true extent of this rapidly-growing problem. Zuma himself has already visited Afrikaner squatter camps twice over the past two years and during both visits had  told the news media that he was ‘shocked at the extent of white poverty. ‘

Margaret Snyman 72; and Griet Swart 86, had their fingers broken by 4 black attackers – but still fought back…

VANDERBIJLPARK. – Two elderly Afrikaner residents of an old-age home, Mrs Margaret Snyman, 72 and her friend Mrs Griet Swart, 86, were attacked outside at 4pm outside their retirement residency complex by four young black men who had amazingly enough, first signed their names in the register of the guard-house of the heavily-protected, gated community of Herfsoord …

When the two Afrikaans women returned from their shopping trip at 4pm at Mrs Swart's cottage, a vehicle stopped behind them, four black men jumped out and tackled the two old women, trying to rip off their jewellery. Mrs Swart, who was driving, wasn't having this and smacked the two black men attacking her with her kierie (walking stick). They then threatened to shoot her butd she shouted at them: “What are you waiting for?” The  witnesses who told the local newspaper of the incident said the the old lady continued defending herself so fiercely that one of the other men assaulting her friend in the passenger seat rushed to help the other two deal with Mrs Swart. One of the attackers then broke her finger to rip off her ring, as they also did with her friend. The angry women were taken to the Emfuleni Medi-Clinic for treatment and trauma treatment. Herfsoord chairman Fred van Rensburg also confirmed the attack. He said the four attackers had actually registered in the security gate's identity register telling the guard that they were fetching one of their employees. "This has never happened here before and we have tightened our security measures,' he said. Mrs Snyman also had her handbag stolen about a month earlier - and it is believed that the same crime-gang. The lo9cal police said they are 'investigating'. http://www.vaalweekblad.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=3206:-rower-breek-bejaarde-se-finger&catid=1:warm-nuus&Itemid=27

 

previously unreported murder :

Deon Verwey, 49, Afrikaans resident, Jeffreys Bay – stabbed in bed with screwdriver

 Verwey Deon 49 Jeffreys Bay WC home stabbed in sleep July242010Afrikaner widower Deon Verwey, 49, a resident of the world-famous surfing town of Jeffreys Bay, died after he was stabbed with a screw-driver while asleep in his bed on June 17 2009, Sunday-morning between 2am and 2.30am . His sister Annetta van der Merwe and SAPS inspector Petra Els  both said  Verwey was asleep in his bed when someone gained access to his house through a window and stabbed him. http://www.kougaexpress.co.za/index.php/newscat/34-headlines/83-inwoner-wreed-vermoor

Die Burger journalist Mariska Spoormaker reports that Verwey had left a trail of blood as he then struggled from the bedroom to the backdoor where he screamed for help. His feet were tied with some kind of cable, said his sister. However the police 'could not confirm this'. Mrs van der Merwe, who lives next door to her brother, said she and her friend J H Potgieter had heard him screaming for help. They ran to his home and discovered he had been stabbed. They took him to Humansdorp hospital in her car but he was dead on arrival.  His daughter Michelle, 23, who also lives in Jeffreys Bay, said her father's death was 'so unnecessary. He was a kind loving person who never hurt anyone,' she said. Ten years earlier on 30 June 1999 Michelle had also lost her mom Laura in another violent tragedy: she was shot dead by a boyfriend. SAPS inspector Marianette Olivier said nobody was arrested for Deon Verwey’s murder.  She claimed that 'items were missing from the house but we need to establish exactly what.' Anyone with information may contact the police at insp. Dobela tel 042 200 6600, 042 200 6600, or 083 739 2810, 083 739 2810 .
