The man has threatened to ‘come back for her’ and she is terrified, she told the newspaper.
Ms Fourie and her friend Deon van der Merwe were attacked on 7 March 2014 in the forest-hut at the Pienaar Dam near Middelburg.
There reportedly were two attackers both black males: the man with the panga tortured Ms Fourie, slicing her across the shoulder blades, chest, hand and stomach. During the final slash with his panga, he tried to cut her throat: but she shielded herself and ducked and he nearly sliced off her thumb instead.
And his comrade bashed Mr van der Merwe with a hammer: so ferociously that he passed out.
Ms Fourie has already identified one suspect, Mduduzi Nkosi as the hammer-attacker, writes the Middelburg Observer.

“I will be back for you’….
