DA Outraged by Brutal Mpumalanga Farm Attack
The Democratic Alliance (DA) expresses deepest outrage and condemnation over the barbaric attack on 70-year-old Carolina farmer, Rolé Uys, in Mpumalanga.
The cruelty of this assault, where
boiling water was poured over Ms Uys before she was chained, gagged and left for dead, defies comprehension.
- This incident is yet another reminder of the daily fear faced by farmers and rural residents across South Africa.
- Ms Uys had already survived a similar attack only two months ago, making this failure of protection even more appalling.
Farm Attacks and Rural Safety remain a national crisis, with rural South Africans continuing to live in fear, often isolated, under-resourced, and too frequently abandoned by those meant to protect them.
