Willie Rademeyer, Tanja Janse van Vuuren survive shooting, Willow Park Manor, Pretorianothing robbed

10-08-17 Virginia Keppler, Beeld Pretoria – A woman who lives in a security complex in Willow Park Manor in the east of Pretoria is in critical condition and her friend in a serious condition after attackers shot them in their home.

“I want you to send a message to those bastards.“Come and try it again. You (attacker) won’t manage it a second time,” Willie Rademeyer, 51, said about the attack on Sunday night on him and his friend, Tanja Janse van Vuuren, 45.
They are both receiving treatment in the Wilgers hospital in Pretoria. Rademeyer was hit in the chest and Janse van Vuuren was shot in the right hand, and the same bullet entered her abdomen. “She tried to stave off the attack with her hand when she was shot,” said Rademeyer.

  • According to him, she was still in a critical condition on Monday afternoon in the hospital’s intensive care unit.

Rademeyer said he and Janse van Vuuren were sitting in front of the TV in their house at about 21:15 when she stood up to call her cat in from outside.“She suddenly shouted: ‘Willie!’” “I jumped up but I heard them shoot her while I was still running towards her. “One of them then came running toward me and shot me in the chest. I fell and saw him walking over to me. I thought he was going to finish me off,” Rademeyer said. He said when the shooter was about 3m away from him, he jumped up and tried to wrestle the pistol from his hand. “We wrestled and then they ran away.“I grabbed a small ashtray that was on the table outside and threw it at the shooter. They fled without taking anything.” Rademeyer says the police were at the scene within three minutes, followed by the ambulance. vkeppler@beeld.com http://www.beeld.com/Suid-Afrika/Nuus/Boewe-julle-kry-nie-n-2de-kans-nie-20100816

Jooste Hanno 22 son of SAPS CAPT BEATEN BY 4 PUPILS AUG162010

 Jooste had just dropped off a male friend and two girl friends at a Moreleta park pub and was parking his car when he saw a man driving at full speed towards one of his friends: “ “I had to run to get her out of the road otherwise the man would have run her down. I asked this group of people what they thought they were doing and four of the men then teamed up and beat me up and my friend – and then fled in their car. One of the pupils’ friends had still tried to stop them from battering Jooste during the fracas, Beeld reports. “We wrote down the car’s registration number and the four youths, all matric pupils, were arrested at their homes the next day.” The four high school boys were released on bail the next day after Hennie de Beer, a friend of one of their fathers, claimed in an interview with Beeld that he had personally phoned both Pres Jacob Zuma’s brother and the national police chief Genl Bheki Cele, asking them to get the youths out of the police cells. Col. Lindela Mashigo, of the SAPS told Beeld that ‘the police had received a complaint that the youths were assaulted in the police cells, however the investigating official used his own discretion to release the youths. There was no interference from anyone in the SAPS’ top management’.

Armien Israel, 65, cancer patient, ‘beaten half to death by a white man’, Kalk Bay Harbour, Cape

August 17 2010 By Genevieve Serra, Daily Voice. - A 65-year-old cancer patient was beaten half to death and was left with a clot on the brain after a vicious beating at Kalk Bay Harbour over a disabled parking bay with a white man who was released shortly thereafter on R1,000 bail. The Pinati Estate father of four had to receive urgent brain surgery last week at Vincent Pallotti hospital but is now stable after being discharged at the weekend, reports the Daily Voice. Israel and his 63-year-old wife say the tiny parking lot was packed and a parking attendant told him to park behind a car illegally parked in a disabled bay.

"I have a big disabled parking sticker but couldn't park in the bay," he said. "The parking guard said I could park there."
Israel's son Abdurahman Israel, 40, said his father parked the car behind the other vehicle after the car guard promised to contact him once the bay was available. "When the car guard called my dad to move the car, the (motorist) kicked and hit my dad and beat him with his fists," he said. "My dad fell and knocked his head against the wheel of the car next to him. "This man kicked my father even as he lay down. How could he kick an old disabled man?" Zarina Israel, 36, said the suspect, who is in his 40s, was arrested at the scene and her dad was rushed to hospital where they discovered the blood clot. Car guard Zacle Wanganda, 40, says he saw everything.
"That white man beat the big old man and I told him he was in the wrong parking," he said. Armien says he feels degraded because he is much older than his alleged attacker, now out on R1,000 bail. "The brain surgery should change the case to attempted murder but he is out," he said. Muizenberg police confirmed the case. - Daily Voice

Shadrack Mohlahla’s horrific July 5 2008 torching-death in Mamelodi described in court: genitals set alight, court told

August 17 2010 By Hanti Otto Court Reporter - When the man did not burn after paraffin was poured over him, the accused allegedly put grass on the injured man's genitals and set it alight.The witness heard "popping" sounds as the fire consumed the man, the Pretoria Regional Court has heard. It has not emerged from the evidence as yet if Shadrack Mohlahla was still alive when he was set alight, but the post-mortem report stated the cause of death as "head injury with burns". Photographs handed in as evidence showed the dead man was burnt from his private parts to his bloodstained face. Bricks lay around his head.

The accused, Frans Baloyi, 42, of Lusaka squatter camp, in Mamelodi East, earlier pleaded not guilty to a charge of murder. It is alleged that he and an accomplice killed Mohlahla by hitting him with stones and a panga, then setting him alight on July 5, 2008. (State witness) Vusi Fenyani yesterday testified that he was woken by a commotion at 5am that day. He saw Baloyi and another man beating the victim."I asked them why they were assaulting the man. They replied that he had stolen things from Baloyi and that I must leave," the witness said. At that stage Mohlahla was lying on the ground, with Baloyi hitting him on the chest with a panga, while the other person was throwing stones at him. "The unknown man then went to Baloyi's house and returned with paraffin. He poured it over the man and lit it. But the fire didn't light. Baloyi then (fetched) grass. He put it on the deceased's genitals and lit it. This time it burnt," Fenyani said. The second man was never caught. During cross-examination, lawyer Adrian Thompson told Fenyani he was only implicating Baloyi as "he went out with your mother when your father was not at home". Fenyani denied this.The trial continues. Baloyi's bail of R500 was extended.
