The farm attacks continued in June. All South African farm owners live in the shadow of such attacks, all the time.
Reports say the farmer was fatally shot as he investigated noises outside the home.
Intruders then bound and assaulted his 48-year-old wife, Carien. Unable to free herself until the following morning, the woman was hospitalized with serious injuries.

The attack occurred at his farm in Hartbeespoort north of Johannesburg. Pieterse’s wife was away at the time and his son, who lives a mere 150’ away, was unaware of the attack.
