Barnard Hekkie

30 November 2012 · Geluk, Kareepoort Brits · North West · Shot
Four attackers attacked 2 families on my family farm in Kareepoort, Brits. They first attacked my cousin, Adam Barnard, and his wife, Daleen, and there two sons. Adam was burnt with a hot iron and the were all assaulted and tied, before the murderers went to my 94 year old grandmother's house, where they were busy making breakfast. They hit her and broke her nose, burnt her with a hot pan and thrown her against the wall and kicked her. My uncle of 74 years, Hekkie Barnard, was shot in the head, shoulder and back and died instantly. My other uncle, Nico Barnard, was shot in the stomach and died two years later as a result of complications. My cousin's son was stabbed in the head with a knife. Adam Barnard, age 42, died three months later of a heart attack.
