Another brutal farm murder as SAPS serve parliament with inaccurate figures

“It is distressing that SAPS apparently supplied Parliament with completely inaccurate figures on farm attacks.– with tragically, yet another brutal farm murder reported today.

“According to media reports, the body of Louis-John Botha of Swartwater was severely mutilated before being dumped into the water,” says Christian Democratic Party (CDP) leader, Rev. Theunis Botha.

“It is inexcusable, that a severe crisis like this, is underplayed by the Government and that they supply us with inaccurate numbers.

“We express our condolences to the next of kin of Botha.”

Nog ‘n wrede plaasmoord terwyl SAPD parlement met onderskatte syfers voer

“Dit is buitengewoon tragies dat dit voor die hand liggend blyk dat die SAPD erg onderskatte syfers oor plaasaanvalle aan die parlement voorgehou het – en tragies – vandag word nog ‘n wrede plaasmoord gerapporteer.

“Volgens mediaberigte is die liggaam van Louis-John Botha van Swartwater erg geskend voor dit in ‘n kuil gegooi is,” sê ds.Theunis Botha, leier van die Christen-Demokratiese Party (CDP).

“Dit kan nie geduld word dat ‘n krisis soos hierdie geringgeskat word deur onakkurate syfers nie.

“Ons spreek ons medelye uit met die naasbestaandes van Botha.”
