If criminals do not have
guns, they will use knives and whatever other weapons
they find, to kill their victims.
Murdering people seem to happen every day in South Africa. Some of the crimes
are family related, and some are related
to drugs and theft.
A young man stabbed his mother to death and was held in custody, why he did this is unknown, and we will probably never hear the
story again. He remains in police custody and will probably let out on bail.
The justice system is a failed system.
In another incident, a woman was attacked
stabbed while bystanders looked on.
Nobody tried to intervene; perhaps they thought it was a road show. Fortunately,
her life has been spared. What a
traumatic experience. In broad daylight, the victim was attacked, and the
possible motive was robbery.
It is dangerous to walk around the streets, and it is
dangerous in your own home. It is really a terrible situation for the people of
South Africa to live a life filled with the thought
of being another victim of senseless
crime.

Brutal Centurion
stabbing did not happen at Gautrain Station
Gautrain has dismissed the claim that a
Midrand woman was viciously stabbed on
Saturday at the Centurion Gautrain Station after graphic images circulated on
social media on Monday.
According to the Centurion Record the caption on Facebook that
accompanied the pictures read, "Woman attacked by thugs with a knife at
Centurion Gautrain Station, while people sat
on the pavement and just watched. Had to have emergency surgery at hospital. After the recent spate of incidents,
we advise against using the Gautrain Station. ”
Gautrain confirmed via Twitter that the incident did not take
place at the Centurian Gautrain Station
The woman, who would like to remain anonymous, was stabbed
several times on her left arm, down the
road from the Centurion Gautrain Station.
According to eNCA, the woman thought the
attacker was a municipal worker when he approached her.
“I thought the attacker was a municipal employee when he
approached me. He grabbed my handbag, but I put up a fight. And then he said in Afrikaans that he was gonna (sic) stab me if I don't give him my phone,” she said.
The woman was lying bleeding on the pavement surrounded by
bystanders when Yvonne Rudman and her husband stopped their vehicle and took
her to the hospital where she had surgery that day.
"I took the photos
of her in hospital (with her
permission) and shared them on Facebook and then it went viral,"
said Yvonne.
