WARNING: GRAPHIC IMAGES BELOW / NOT FOR THE FAINT HEARTED

An anonymous White paramedic or doctor sent out the email below (translated from the original Afrikaans)

“I see these attacks occurring on a weekly basis now - suburban houses, smallholdings and farms, and I see the victims in both private & provincial hospitals. The frequency of attacks is sharply increasing and the brutality getting worse and worse.

Criminals are targeting any person and any home, even for small items like a cell phone. The last few weeks: three murders, nine violent attacks (three victims seriously injured, another three critically injured, two stable and one fighting for his life). The attacks were perpetrated by different groups of criminals.

The photographs of the attack shown below is one of six occurrences in the past week and of the rest of the attacks the public wasn’t informed about. Not even the community in which it happened knows about it. Neither the police or any other institution are informing you of these crimes - its not even reported in the news anymore. If it’s not your family or friends, you won’t know about it.

Please be careful - become more aware and prepared - attend lectures and classes on how to avoid or deal with a criminal attack. One can stop these attacks from happening with minimal knowledge, caution and preparation.

See the attached photographs - this is what barbaric criminals do to elderly people. This woman is 77 years old and lives alone. (Location withheld due to investigation). At some point during the day, the old woman must have left her house to go outside, whereupon the attackers sneaked into the house and ambushed her when she came back in. The motive is unknown but suspected to be robbery. All they took were three bottles of shampoo, a cellphone and the bread knife with which they savagely attacked her.

The attack happened this past Friday night. She is seriously injured but stable. The attacker wanted to cut off her fingers with a bread knife, right arm lost much arterial blood for about six hours, necrosis has started setting in due to blood loss, prognosis for retaining her arm is good. It is not known whether she was raped but this is highly likely.”
