A farmer of the Boschkop area north of Pretoria, in the Gauteng Province of South Africa, shot one attacker dead after his house was attacked by three black men on Saturday evening 21 November 2020. It was the second attack on his farm house this year. The farmer fired shots in self defence and called his neighbours for help after his alarm was activated around 21:00.
The body of one attacker was found after help arrived. The farmer and his wife were also attacked in July 2020. At that time the attackers gained entry into the house and fired shots through the bedroom door.
The farmer and his wife barricaded themselves in the bathroom in July whilst the attackers stole items from the house.
A Police spokesperson told the media that they are investigating a case of house robbery and murder.
But why must the farmer be investigated for murder when he was forced to defend himself? Would the authorities rather prefer a dead or tortured farmer and his wife after such an attack?.
