Police are investigating a case of murder and armed robbery after five men allegedly broke into an apartment on a game farm on May 5, 2015 at about 20:00, and killed the manager.
The man’s girlfriend was also in the bedroom and hid to protect herself.
The man apparently looked after the Leeukloof game farm in Cullinan near Pretoria, and lived in an apartment on the farm. The owner of the farm visits only on weekends.
The man’s girlfriend told police that five armed men dragged the man outside and he was severely beaten. He sustained serious injuries and died on the scene.
Capt. Marissa van der Merwe, a police spokesperson, said the robbers gained entry by crawling underneath the electrified fence.
“The doors were locked but the robbers broke in. The man was dragged outside while the woman was hiding. They then went to the main house, entered and stole goods before fleeing the scene, “she said.
