A woman (50) and her son (20) were detained at knife point and assaulted for more than an hour on their farm outside the British on Saturday, before thieves pushed them into the undergrowth and tied them to tree stumps.
The thieves then fled with household items and clothing.
Annemarie Byleveldt and her son Pietman Diedericks were watching television in their room on a farm in Krokodildrift West on the outskirts of Brits around 1:30 a.m. Saturday when three men, armed with a knife and sticks, broke a window and they dominated them.
“We were watching television when the three men ran into the room and grabbed both of us. They took our mobile phones and when I screamed, one hit me repeatedly with a stick all over the body, ”Annemarie told Kormorant. “They told us we cooperate or they would use force. They tied up my son and asked where the weapons and money were. My dog was barking and they hit her. “
When Annemarie told them they had no weapons or money, the thieves robbed Pietman. “They told me to close my eyes. They grabbed Pietman and carried him out of the room, and when I asked where they were taking him, one of them told me to shut up. Then he came over to me and started pulling my pants down. I begged him in the name of God to take everything, but not to rape me. Then he left. “
Annemarie said the three burglars took their time looting the house. “They took things like my hair dryer, a gas hob, clothes and shoes, but strangely not the televisions, and they went out into the street where I could hear them loading it into a car. Then they told us to get blankets and made us go to the bush. After walking for about five minutes we were told to lie down on the blankets and they tied us and then to the tree stumps. They said they would return for the ‘old men’, my in-laws who live on the same property.
Pietman managed to free his hands and untied his mother. They ran to the neighbors for help. Meanwhile, Annemarie’s in-laws noticed that the light outside Annemarie’s house was off and became suspicious. They pressed the panic button to alert the security company. Security agents and members of the neighborhood guard responded immediately. Police were called to the scene.
Annemarie has suffered severe bruises.
Police are still searching for the three attackers.
