description: Cash-in-transit robbers nab R1.3m Dumisane Lubisi Hazyview - Five cash-in-transit robbers stole R1.3 million when they forced a Coin Security van off the White River/Hazyview road in Mpumalanga on Monday afternoon. The robbers opened fire on the van while overtaking it in a bakkie at about 2.30pm. Lowveld police spokesperson Captain Harry Shabangu said on Tuesday that two of the van's tyres were hit and the driver was forced to stop. The heavily armed robbers aimed R5 rifles at the two guards and emptied the van of money containers, which were loaded onto the bakkie. The robbers sped off. None of the guards were injured. Shabangu said police were following all possible leads to trace the suspects. Meanwhile, Tonga police are searching for three men who shot dead a shop assistant and robbed the owner of his bakkie and R3 000 on Monday afternoon. Shabangu said three armed men entered Good Lucky shop in Langeloop tribal trust at about 5:30pm and held up Jacobus Petrus le Roux and his assistant Daniel Fucane. They demanded money and one of the robbers suddenly shot Fucane, killing him instantly. The robbers fled in Le Roux's bakkie, a white Nissan with registration number CJN 957 MP, which is still missing. - African Eye News Service

description: Outrage as jailbreakers murder elderly woman Volksrust - Alleged police negligence may have led to eight criminals escaping from the Volksrust Prison at the weekend after which they strangled and killed an elderly woman with a television aerial chord. Four of the men have been re-arrested on Monday. Gertruida Diedericks, 60, was attacked in a storage room on the farm Baviaanskloof about 10km outside Volksrust on the Wakkerstroom road. At the time of the attack her husband Christoffel was not at home. From the storage room she was taken to the farmhouse where she was strangled and tied to a chair with a television aerial chord. The killers fled with about R15 000 in cash, a bag of bananas and a few containers of canned fruit. Volksrust police spokesperson Jeanine van Zyl said: "An investigation has been launched into whether the policemen on duty that night were negligent by not checking the cells regularly or whether they may have assisted the inmates to escape." According to Beeld, an entry into the incident book at the charge office showed that the last cell inspection was done at 7.00pm on Saturday night. The escape from the prison cells was only discovered at 7.00am on Sunday morning. According to police regulations the cells must be inspected every hour. Attempts to make late entries into the incident book after the escape were allegedly made. The murderers were allegedly part of a group of youths - all between the ages of 14 and 24 - who escaped from police custody in Volksrust on Saturday night. One of the youngsters - a 14-year-old boy - has already been found guilty of murder on Natasha van der Merwe (13) of Volksrust. She was stabbed to death in March this year while she was one her way home from town. The other seven who escaped were all awaiting-trial prisoners on charges ranging from rape to burglary. Van Zyl says the eight escaped through a hole they had sawed in the ceiling. They apparently bribed someone to buy them a hacksaw blade which was passed t…

description: Teenager arrested for farm murder Youth arrested for farm murder Nelspruit - A 15-year-old boy has been arrested in connection with the murder of a Volksrust chicken farmer on Sunday, Mpumalanga police reported on Monday. Superintendent Izak van Zyl told Sapa that eight male suspects, aged between 14 and 24, had been linked to the attack on Getruide Diedericks. All the suspects allegedly escaped from the Volksrust police cells on Saturday following their arrest in connection with incidents of rape, housebreaking and robbery. The 14-year-old was arrested in connection with another murder. Van Zyl said only one, a 15-year-old, had been re-arrested. The incident was the seventh attack on farmers in Mpumalanga in six days. "One doesn't know what their (the attackers') agenda is. We think that they are trying to frighten farmers into leaving," said Agri Nelspruit spokesperson Charles du Plessis. However, police said robbery was the motive in all but one of the incidents. "We have no proof that it's politically related, but the fact can't be ignored," said Van Zyl. Diedericks was one of two farmers attacked in Mpumalanga over the weekend. In the second incident, an 82-year-old farmer was shot by three men near his farm outside Groblersdal. He is being treated in hospital and is in a stable condition. The attacks followed Friday's announcement by Mpumalanga police commissioner Eric Nkabinde that a national rural safety plan to reduce the number of farm attacks had been put in place. The plan, initiated by the police, incorporates the SA National Defence Force and the departments of Labour, Land Affairs and Agriculture and farm-workers' unions. - Sapa

description: Gang guns claim toddler's life Stellenbosch - In a bloody climax to a weekend of gang violence in Cloetesville, a four-year-old girl died after sustaining a head injury in the early hours of Monday morning, while she slept in bed behind her parents' and brother's backs. Andrea Davids died in the Tygerberg hospital a few hours after a fusillade of shots were fired at her parentsê house in Eike Street, Cloeteville at about 2:45 am. One of the seven bullets which hit the house, penetrated the bedroom's thin wood wall, hit Andrea in the neck, and lodged in her brain. According to Andrea's father, Andre, his daughter was scared of gunfire, and he suspected that she had lifted her head after the first shots were fired. The police found more than 20 9mm shells in the area around the house. Although the motive for the attack was still not known, the possibility was being investigated that it was connected to two gang-related shooting incidents earlier in the weekend. On Saturday at about 05:00, a 29-year-old suspected gang member, Alexander Olivier, was found dead on an open piece of land, less than 200m from Andrea's parents' house. He had been shot in the head five times. Olivier was walking across the land with a friend and a girlfriend when they were shot at. It is unknown from what distance Olivier was shot. Two suspected gang members from Cloetesville were later arrested for the murder. They are due to appear in court soon. At about 22:00, Patrick Mowers (23) was wounded in the leg when two suspected gang members opened fire on him outside a block of flats in Kloof Street. He was treated and later discharged from hospital. Nobody has yet been arrested in connection with this incident. Eight people, including Andrea and Olivier, have died in gang violence in Stellenbosch this year. Andrea is the first young child to die in gang violence. A two-year-old boy was seriously wounded in August this year in Cloetesville, when gangs shot at each other in the same area as Andre…

description: Union 'won't pacify' farmers Nico van Burick The Transvaal Agricultural Union said it can no longer urge its members to stay calm while they are systematically being wiped out. The Union was reacting to the murder of a farmer from Martinshoop near Lydenburg in Mpumalanga on Thursday morning. Johan Botha was shot dead in his bed at about 2 on Thursday morning. His wife was wounded in the leg and the liver. Botha was attacked two months ago, but managed to fend off his attacker. The Union's president Gert Ehlers said nothing was stolen or missing from the house. Even the firearms kept in the house were left untouched. He said it was becoming clearer by the day that robbery and crime had nothing to do with farm attacks. Labour and land affairs manager, Jack Loggenberg said an anonymous caller had phoned Botha last week and had threatened to shoot him. Botha then set traps around his home, but his attacker made a hole in a fence, dodged the traps and shot him and his wife in their bed. His wife was wounded in the leg and the liver. Ehlers said farm murders were traumatic and his organisation could no longer urge its members to stay calm. He said the Union saw the attacks as part of a campaign of intimidation to drive farmers off their land. "As farm murders increase and the list of crippled victims, little orphans and widows grows, the Union is urged to keep emotions in check," he said. "We will continue to alert our members and keep them informed."
