Danie Moolman succumbs to injuries sustained during violent attack on farm in the Leeupoort area

An elderly man who was seriously injured during an attack on a farm in the Leeupoort area passed away just more than a month after the incident.

According to trustworthy sources the late Danie Moolman passed away in Leratong Hospital, where he has been treated since the incident on March 24.

The elderly owner and his son were shot while the owner’s wife and daughter were also assaulted. The thugs fled with their vehicle, which was found back the same evening together with goods stolen from the farm.

This incident took place only four days after another attack on a farm in the same area, which is next to the Mpahla Village informal settlement.
