Ploughman Elizabeth Mary Therese "Liz" Dr.

Age 51. A group of criminals breached the farm property, targeted her isolated residence, and subjected her to a violent assault. The perpetrators tortured Dr. Liz Ploughman inside her home before killing her, inflicting severe trauma that resulted in her death. Her murder sent shockwaves through both the local Cape Winelands agricultural community and the broader academic sector due to her high-profile status as a humanitarian researcher.
