Hendrick van Rensburg, 82; and grandson Dean Woodraffe, 17, were murdered on March 10 2008 on their Bronkhorstspruit farm — local farmers protest against bail application of farm-murderer at local law court:March 17 2008 – BRONKHORSTSPRUIT/KUNGWINI, SA.
According to the statistics being maintained on the website http://groups.msn.com/crimebustersofsouthafri…a at least 2,939 farm murders have been recorded there since 1994 – primarily of Afrikaner farmers, their kin and their families.
Please note that this record is incomplete since many farm murders remain underreported or are reported without mentioning the fact that the murder occurred on a farm or smallholding.
Members of the Transvaal Agricultural Union, deeply upset about the double-murder on 82-year old Bronkhorstspruit farmer Hendrick Janse van Rensburg and his 17-year-old grandson Dean Charles Woodraffe on the farm Zusterstroom, on Monday March 17 held a protest demonstration at the local law-courts against the arrested suspect’s bail application.
The chairman of TAU-Centraal region, Anthony Scott-Dawkins, handed over a petition to the magistrate on behalf of the entire farming community, opposing an arrested man’s bail.
He also expressed his condolances with the family of the murdered men.
“To lose an elderly, believed father and grandfather, and a grandson simultaneouosly in such a cruel fashion, makes dealing with the trauma of such a loss so much more difficult,’ he said.
Scott-Dawkins has called on the local police to also investigate ‘anti-white racism’ as a motive for the murders.
“It simply is no longer acceptable that farmers are being murdered in this cruel fashion and that just a cellphone was ‘robbed’ as the only motive.
“People don’t just get murdered for something as petty as a cellphone.
“There must be other motives behind this and it’s high time that the police investigates these underlying motives much more thoroughly.’
“Every murder on a farmer is one murder too many’.
A farm worker from a neighbouring farm, 24-year old Isaac Masutu, had made a brief appearance in court and applied for bail on March 17.
It is believed that Masutu was not alone when carrying out the attack and police are still investigating.
Scott-Dawkins also issued an ‘urgent call to farmers to make sure who they are hiring and to check a potential employee’s past criminal records.’
The TAU also warned that farmers should exercise strict control over the visitors to their workers’ cottages — to prevent them from ‘bringing any criminal elements to the farm’.
“Farmers must remain alert at all times,’ he warned.

Well, this is but an example of living by the gun and violence, then dying by it. Whites have been killing, stealing, deceiving, raping, lynching people of color all around the world for centuries in order to gain wealth, power, prestige they did not deserve. You can only be on top, but for so long, before there will be a change. Whites had a gift for deception, backed with violence, to steal land and impose unjust laws upon native peoples and this is the backlash of it all. It is just the begining for those who used violence to gain, know full well that this violence it the signaling of change. They can gather guns, or what ever, but it is inevitable that change must come, they must give back what was taken, or it will be wretched from their pale, cold hands.
The boers should buy guns and organise some civilian militia, i’m curious if in south africa is legal to organise neighbours militia?
