Familie glo in vrou, pa se onskuld
Polokwane (Pietersburg). – Die familie van die sakeman van dié stad wie se lyk die naweek in ’n vlak graf gevind is, glo in sy vrou en haar pa se onskuld nadat hulle gister weens sy dood in die hof verskyn het.
Mev. Sanet Bruton (30) en haar pa, mnr. Hermanus Phillipus Niemann (58), het gisteroggend elk op aanklag van moord in die Polokwane-landdroshof verskyn.
Hulle word verdink van die moord op mnr. Wayne Bruton (29), ’n eiendomsontwikkelaar van die stad. Sy erg ontbinde lyk is die naweek in ’n vlak graf by ’n huis in sone 71 in Seshego, buite die stad, gevind.
Hy was bykans ’n maand lank vermis.
In dié stadium is dit nog net mev. Bruton en Niemann wat van die moord aangekla is.
Mnr. Solomon Shadung (28), ’n werknemer van mnr. Bruton, verskyn môre weer in die landdroshof in die stad en sal na verwagting dan van die moord aangekla word. Hy is kort ná mnr. Bruton se verdwyning op aanklag van ontvoering in hegtenis geneem. Die man wat Saterdag by Shadung se huis in Seshego betrap is waar hy die vlak graf met sement toegegooi het, is ook steeds in hegtenis, maar nog nie aangekla nie.
Die staat het nie borgtog teengestaan nie. Mev. Bruton en Niemann is op borgtog van R3 000 elk vrygelaat. Familielede en vriende van mev. Bruton het die borgtog binne minute betaal.
“Jy kan nie glo hoe erg dit in die selle is nie,” het ’n huilende mev. Bruton aan Beeld gesê kort nadat sy uit die hofselle vrygelaat is. Sy het, terwyl sy haar trane met ’n wit sakdoek afgevee het, gesê sy wil “net by haar kinders uitkom”.
Sy en haar pa is Saterdag kort nadat mnr. Bruton se lyk gevind is, in hegtenis geneem.
Familie en vriende het gister in die hof soentjies ter ondersteuning vir haar geblaas.
Hulle het haar omhels nadat sy vrygelaat is.
Sy moes ingedruk saam met ander aangehoudenes op die trappe na die hofselle sit en wag voordat sy verskyn het.
Sy en haar pa het nie tydens die hofverrigtinge of daarna met mekaar gepraat nie.
Mnr. Joe Bruton, broer van die oorledene, het by die hof gesê die familie staan by mev. Bruton.
“Ons weet sy is onskuldig,” het hy gesê. Hy het gesê die moord op sy broer is “baie erg. Dink net hoe sal jy voel as dit jou familie was met wie dit gebeur het.”
Volgens hom is gerugte dat ’n lewensversekeringspolis ’n moontlike rede vir die moord op mnr. Bruton is, louter onsin.
“Daar is geen polisse wat my broer gehad het nie.”
Familielede moes die naweek vir die Bruton-egpaar se kinders vertel dat hul pa dood is.
“Ons moes dit doen, want Sanet was in aanhouding,” het Joe Bruton gesê.
Die egpaar wat 11 jaar lank getroud was, het ook ’n drie maande oue babadogter. Mev. Bruton en haar kinders het berading by ’n pastoor ontvang nadat haar man verdwyn het.
Beeld verneem dat een van die kinders gister veral ontsteld was oor haar pa se dood en haar ma wat in aanhouding was.
Sy moes glo kalmeerpille kry. Familielede het die naweek na die kinders omgesien.
Landdros Janine Ungerer het die saak teen mev. Bruton en Niemann vir verdere ondersoek tot 4 September uitgestel.
Polokwane - The family of the local businessman, whose body was found in a shallow grave at the weekend, believe in the innocence of the man's wife and father-in-law.
The two appeared in court on Monday in connection with his murder.
Sanet Bruton, 30, and her father, Hermanus Phillipus Niemann, 58, appeared in Polokwane Magistrate's Court on Monday morning on charges of murder.
They are suspected of the murder of Wayne Bruton, 29, a local property developer.
Wayne's decomposed body was found in a shallow grave at a house in Zone 71 in Seshego, outside Polokwane. He had been missing for nearly a month.
At this stage, only Sanet and Hermanus have been charged with the murder.
An employee of Wayne's, Solomon Shadung, 28, is due to appear in Polokwane Magistrate's Court on Tuesday and is expected to be charged with the murder.
Caught at grave
He was arrested on a charge of kidnapping shortly after Wayne's disappearance.
A man who was caught on Saturday at Solomon's house in Seshego where he had covered the shallow grave with cement, was also arrested, but has not been charged yet.
Sanet and Hermanus were released on bail of R3 000 each. The State did not oppose bail.
Family and friends of Sanet paid the bail immediately.
"You can't believe how terrible it is in the cells," said a weeping Sanet to Beeld shortly after she had been released.
She said she just wanted to get to her children.
Sanet and her father were arrested on Saturday shortly after Wayne's body was found.
On Monday, friends and family blew kisses to Sanet in court as a sign of moral support. They embraced her after she was released.
She had had to sit on the stairs to the court cells, squeezed in among other detainees, while she waited to appear.
Insurance policy 'rubbish'
Sanet and her father did not speak to each other during the court proceedings or afterwards.
Wayne's brother, Joe, said at the court that the family stood by Sanet. "We know she is innocent."
He said his brother's murder was terrible. "Just think how you would feel if it happened to your family."
Joe said that rumours that a life insurance policy was the possible reason for his brother's murder were absolute rubbish.
"My brother didn't have any policies."
Family had had to tell Wayne and Sanet's children at the weekend that their father was dead.
"We had to do it because Sanet was in custody," said Joe.
Children very upset
The couple had been married for 11 years and their youngest child is three months old. Sanet and her children received counselling from a pastor after Wayne disappeared.
Beeld was told that one of the children was especially upset on Monday because her father was dead and her mother was in custody. Apparently she had to receive tranquillizers.
Family looked after the children at the weekend.
Magistrate Janine Ungerer postponed the case against Sanet and Hermanus for further investigation until September 4.

Drie vas vir moord op Durban-paar
Durban. – Drie mense word vir ondervraging aangehou in verband met die moord op ’n bestuurder by ’n chemiese aanleg en sy vrou die naweek in dié stad.
Mnr. Johan Lotter (53), werkplaasbestuurder by die Lanxess-aanleg in Durban, is Saterdagnag in ’n gang by sy huis in Westville met ’n elektriese koord verwurg.
Die polisie het die lyk van sy vrou, Riekie (52), met steekwonde in die kombuis gevind toe hulle Sondag in die vroeëoggendure ontbied is, het sr.supt. Jay Naicker, polisiewoordvoerder, gesê.
Me. Margaret Meyer, woordvoerder van Lanxess, ’n filiaal van Bayer Chemicals, het gesê mnr. Lotter was ’n baie toegewyde en lojale werknemer. Hy was die werkplaasbestuurder sedert die middel van die 1990’s. Die groep se bestuur in Suid-Afrika en Duitsland het hul skok oor die egpaar se dood uitgespreek.
Volgens Naicker het die egpaar se seun aan die polisie vertel twee mans met klapmusse op het hom Saterdagaand omstreeks 21:00 tuis oorval.
Die jong man het gesê hy het die hek oopgemaak vir ’n motor wat soos sy suster s’n gelyk het en is die huis in. Hy het die deur ook oopgelos sodat sy suster kon inkom.
Die volgende oomblik het die mans hom oorval, in ’n kamer toegesluit en sy selfoon gevat sodat hy nie hulp kon ontbied nie.
Die seun het aan die polisie gesê hy kon sy ouers se gille hoor toe hulle elders in die huis aangeval is, maar hy was onbewus van hul lot totdat sy suster uiteindelik Sondagoggend omstreeks 01:00 by die huis gekom het.
Volgens Naicker kon die polisie geen teken vind dat enigiets tydens die aanval geneem is nie.
Twee mans en ’n vrou word sedert Sondag vir ondervraging aangehou, het Naicker gesê.
Speurders sal die drie na verwagting vandag arresteer nadat reëlings met die vervolgingsgesag vir ’n hofverskyning getref is.

Familie ‘vergewe nie moordenaars’ van oudbrigadier
Kaapstad. - Die familie van ’n oudbrigadier in die departement van korrektiewe dienste, mnr. Willie Rousseau (76), van Jacobsbaai, het sy moord as sinneloos, barbaars en vernederend bestempel.
“Ons vergewe nie diegene wat vir hierdie gruwelike daad verantwoordelik is nie,” het me. Amanda Singleton, Rousseau se oudste dogter, in ’n verklaring gesê.
Haar pa se lyk is Saterdagmiddag op ’n verlate plaaspad naby Hopefield gekry.
Rousseau het Vrydag omstreeks 16:20, soos elke dag, na ’n nabygeleë kafee gery om sigarette te koop.
Sy vrou, mev. Joey Rousseau, het bekommerd geraak toe hy nie teen die gewone tyd terug was nie.
“Ons het self sy gewone roete gefynkam en daarna die polisie op Vredenburg en Saldanhabaai in kennis gestel dat my pa vermis word,” het Singleton gesê.
Teen Saterdag om 04:00 het die satellietopsporingstelsel in sy motor gewys die voertuig is in die Malmesbury-omgewing. Teen 07:00 het die polisie twee verdagtes op die Klipheuwelpad naby Durbanville in hegtenis geneem.
Rousseau se Ford Bantam-bakkie is gekaap en hy is doodgewurg.
Supt. André Traut, polisiewoordvoerder, het gister gesê een van die twee mans wat weens die moord in hegtenis geneem is, het erken hulle het hom beroof, vermoor en sy liggaam op ’n verlate plek gaan los. Hy het ook die plek gaan uitwys waar sy liggaam op ’n gruispad naby Hopefield in ’n poel water gelê het.
Traut het gesê ’n derde verdagte word nog gesoek.
Die twee mans, mnre. Cedric Lottering en Ricardo Petersen, albei van Saldanhabaai, het gister in die rondgaande hof in Velddrif op aanklagte van roof en moord verskyn.
Die saak is tot 28 Julie uitgestel vir die polisie om die ondersoek af te handel.
Me. Cindy Abdol, staatsaanklaer, het gesê die staat gaan beslis borgtog teenstaan. “Dit was hul eerste verskyning en ons kon nog nie vasstel of hulle vorige veroordelings of uitstaande lasbriewe vir arrestasies teen hulle het nie. Hul vaste adresse is nie bekend nie.”
Die twee het aangedui hulle gaan om regshulp aansoek doen.
“Ons wens die statistieke waarvan hy (Rousseau) nou deel geword het, word op so ’n wyse gepubliseer dat ons regering op ’n punt kom waar hy daadwerklik verantwoordelikheid sal neem vir die veiligheid van veral die weerlose mense van ons land,” lui Singleton se verklaring.
Singleton en Steve Hofmeyr is eienaars van die Weskusplek, ’n restaurant en hotel in Jacobsbaai aan die Kaapse Weskus.
’n Roudiens vir Rousseau word Saterdag om 10:00 in die kapel by die hotel gehou.

Some true Crime Scene Photo's related to Farm Murders in South Africa. Scroll down do not click on the links. The pictures are at the bottom. I am sure that these murders are mentioned somewhere in your excellent posts.
I thought this might stir the people up a bit. To talk about crime makes one think about it. to give it a face makes one take action to prevent it.

'We don't forgive the killers'
"We don't forgive those responsible for this gruesome deed," said Amanda Singleton, Rousseau's eldest daughter.
Rousseau's body was found on a deserted farm road near Hopefield on Saturday afternoon.
About 16:20 on Friday, Rousseau drove to buy cigarettes at a nearby café, as he did every day.
His wife, Joey, became worried when he was not back at his usual time.
Amanda said: "We thoroughly searched his usual route and then we told police in Vredenburg and Saldanha Bay that my father was missing."
By 07:00, police had arrested two suspects on the Klipheuwel Road near Durbanville.
Dumped his body
Superintendent André Traut said one of the two men, who had been arrested in connection with Rousseau's murder, admitted that they had robbed him and dumped his body at an isolated spot.
The suspect then took police to the place where Rousseau's body lay in a pool of water on a gravel road near Hopefield.
Traut said police still were searching for a third suspect.

Cops quiz relatives over killings
Durban - Arrests in connection with the murder of a German couple who were stabbed and strangled in their Westville home are expected on Tuesday.
Businessman Johan Lotter and his wife, Magdalena, who is also known as Riekie, were found by their daughter at their Thames Place home on Saturday night.
Lotter was the head of the Bayer/Lanxess chemical plant in Merebank's Tomango Road. The couple had been living in South Africa for the past 18 years and had three children.
Police took in three relatives for questioning and are expected to make arrests in connection with the brutal murders on Tuesday.
Superintendent Jay Naicker said that Johan was asleep when he was attacked while his wife was stabbed in the kitchen. A large knife was found.
There were no signs of a struggle or a forced entry and police believe that the attackers were known to the couple.
Son locked in bedroom
Naicker said it appeared Magdalena had tried to defend herself while being attacked as she had several stab wounds.
He said the couple's 20-year-old son told police that two men in balaclavas confronted him, took his cellphone and then locked him in his bedroom.
"The bodies were found by Lotter's 26-year-old daughter," he said. It is believed the daughter had also freed her brother from his bedroom.
Members of the organised crime unit took fingerprints and searched the property on Monday.
"Police combed the area for vital clues which could solve the murders," he said.
Naicker confirmed that the three suspects were relatives of the dead couple, but would not divulge further details. He said that the case was at a sensitive stage.
"Police are still questioning the suspects who have indicated that they want to make confessions. We are also consulting with the Director of Public Prosecutions" he said.

Mom, kids jailed for assault
Port Elizabeth - A Richmond Hill mother and her two children were held for the weekend in the Humewood police cells after they apparently assaulted an alleged cellphone thief.
They appeared briefly in the local magistrate's court on Monday on charges of assault with the intention of causing grievous bodily harm.
Cheryl Burger, 48, her son Shaun, 23, and her daughter Tania, 20, were each released on bail of R500.
Their lawyer, Mark Rossouw, said the Burgers had gone for a walk at King's Beach on Saturday afternoon. "When they got back to their car, Miss Burger realised her cellphone had been stolen," said Rossouw.
They immediately informed police officers who were passing by in a police vehicle, and then helped them search for the suspect in the Summerstrand area.
Beat the man unconscious
During the search, the Burgers heard a woman "scream terribly". They ran towards the woman, who pointed at an unknown man.
The Burgers charged at the man and took a knife from him. They also suspected that he had stolen the cellphone.
More police were sent to the scene. Die Burgers were taken into custody as they allegedly beat the man unconscious. He was taken to hospital by ambulance.
According to Rossouw, the Burgers, who were still barefoot, were held over the weekend in the cells. "They wanted to lay a charge of theft at the police station, but they were not allowed to do it," said Rossouw.
Police spokesperson Captain Sandra Janse van Rensburg, said police were not allowed to accept such a charge unless the cellphone was already blacklisted and an ITC number had been submitted.
The case was postponed to September 26 for further investigation.
Ma, kinders naweek in tronk ‘ná iemand anders selfoon steel
Port Elizabeth. - ’n Ma van Richmond Hill en haar twee kinders is die naweek in die Humewood-polisieselle aangehou omdat hulle glo ’n vermeende selfoondief aangerand het.
Hulle het gister vlugtig in die landdroshof hier verskyn op aanklagte van aanranding met die doel om ernstig te beseer.
Mev. Cheryl Burger (48), haar seun, mnr. Shaun Burger (23), en haar dogter, mej. Tania Burger (20), is op R500 borgtog elk vrygelaat.
Volgens hul prokureur, mnr. Mark Rossouw, het die Burgers Saterdagmiddag by Koningstrand langs die see gaan stap. “Toe hulle terugkeer na hul voertuig, het mej. Burger besef haar selfoon is gesteel,” sê Rossouw.
Hulle het na bewering dadelik polisiebeamptes in ’n verbygaande polisievoertuig in kennis gestel.
Hierop het hulle saam met die polisie na ’n verdagte in die Somerstrand-omgewing begin soek.
Tydens die soektog het die Burgers ’n vrou gehoor wat “vreeslik gegil” het. Hulle het na haar gehardloop, waarna sy na ’n onbekende man gewys het.
Die Burgers het op die man afgepyl en ’n mes by hom afgeneem. Hulle het vermoed dat hy ook die selfoon gesteel het.
Meer polisielede is na die toneel ontbied. Die Burgers is in hegtenis geneem omdat hulle die man na bewering bewusteloos geslaan het. Hy is per ambulans na die hospitaal geneem.
Volgens Rossouw is die Burgers “net so kaalvoet en al” oor die naweek in die selle aangehou. “Hulle wou ’n klag van diefstal indien by die polisiekantoor, maar hulle is nie toegelaat nie,” sê Rossouw.
Volgens kapt. Sandra Janse van Rensburg, ’n polisiewoordvoerder, mag die polisie nie so ’n klag aanvaar nie, mits die selfoon reeds “geswartlys en ’n ITC-nommer verskaf” is.
Die saak is tot 26 September vir verdere ondersoek uitgestel.

NELSPRUIT - ‘n Bekende boer en streeksvoorsitter van Agri Mpumalanga, mnr. Charles du Plessis (62), is in ‘n ernstige toestand in Nelspruit Medi-Clinic nadat hy Vrydagaand in die maag geskiet is. Die egpaar het saam met hul dogter en skoonseun gaan uiteet om die besonderse dag te vier. Dit het egter vinnig verander in ‘n nagmerrie toe die Du Plessis’s teruggekeer het na hul plot in Sterkspruit, waar hulle deur boewe oorval is.
Charles is in die maag geskiet, maar Marietha het blykbaar geen beserings opgedoen nie. Hulle is vasgebind voordat die rowers gevlug het.
Die rowers het die telefoonlyne uitgeruk om hul ontsnapping te vergemaklik, maar Marietha het die restaurant en haar dogter op ‘n selfoon geskakel wat sy weggesteek het nadat sy haarself losgewikkel het.
Die polisie en ambulans is ontbied en Charles is na die hospitaal geneem, waar hy ‘n operasie ondergaan het. Blykbaar het die ambulans 45 minute gevat om op te daag.
"Ons weet op die oomblik nie hoeveel verdagtes by die aanval betrokke was nie," sê insp. Dawie Pretorius, Nelspruit-polisie-woordvoerder.
Die familie se twee voertuie, ‘n Mitsubishi Pajero en Colt is gesteel, maar Pretorius het bevestig dat hulle reeds Saterdag naby Tonga opgespoor is. Die verdagtes het ook elektriese toestelle by die Du Plessis’s gesteel.
Die president van Agri SA, mnr. Lourie Bosman het sy skok oor die voorval uitgespreek toe hy met Laevelder gepraat het. "Hierdie vlakke van geweld en misdaad in ons land moet nou tot ‘n einde kom. Dit is onaanvaarbaar! Charles werk al jare by ons en hierdie nuus is definitief ‘n terugslag vir die provinsie."
Bosman meen die enigste manier om ernstige misdaad te kortwiek, is om sterker strawwe in te stel.
Hy sluit af deur te sê dat Charles ‘n uitsonderlike mens is, en dat Afgri SA sy innige simpatie aan die Du Plessis-familie stuur. Me. Robyn Baard, woordvoerder vir Nelspruit Medi-Clinic, het gister bevestig dat Du Plessis se toestand ernstig is nadat daar weer gister op hom geopereer is.
"Die dokters en personeel gee hom al die aandag wat hulle moontlik kan," het Baard afgesluit.
Charles se broer, Leon, sê, "Marietha is in `n erge toestand van skok en slegs sy word toegelaat om Charles in die intersiewe-sorgeenheid te sien."

Hijackers burn out car fitted with tracker
A 33-YEAR-OLD man escaped death after being hijacked and assaulted and his car set alight by four armed men in Walmer, Port Elizabeth, last night.
Police spokesman Captain Sandra van Rensburg said the man, whose name she did not disclose, had been on his way home from a supermarket in Main Road when he was attacked.
The incident happened in 10th Avenue near Buffelsfontein Road at about 6pm.
“The man heard stones being thrown at his windscreen. Two armed men then got into his car and instructed him to drive in the direction of Schoenmakerskop,” Van Rensburg said.
While he was driving, a white Citi Golf carrying two more armed robbers followed. “The robbers then noticed a book apparently indicating that the car was fitted with a tracking device.
“They started to assault him with the gun, but he fortunately managed to escape. When he turned around, he saw his car was on fire.”
The car, a Toyota Fortuner, was totally burnt out.
The robbers left without taking any of the man‘s possessions.
He called his wife and she took him to hospital, as he had suffered head injuries.
