FSA WELCOMES APPOINTED TEAM
FOR FARM MURDERS
By: Weekly View Correspondent.
Free State Agriculture (FSA) expressed its gratitude
to the Hennenman Farmers' Association, the
community of Hennenman and surrounding towns
and the public for their support during the protest
action against farm murders in Hennenman on
Monday 16 November. The organization is
convinced that the manner in which the protest
action took place is gaining confidence and support
for the farm murders campaign, given the enormous
amount of support FSA receives from the public.
The suspects chose not to apply for bail and remain
in custody. FSA also welcomes the appointment of a
team of experts to investigate farm murders and
attacks in the Free State. Tommie Esterhuizen – Vice President FSA
Vice - President of FSA, has high praise for the
farmers' association and the community of
Hennenman in the way in which the protest action
was handled. "There were no incidents of violence,
the site was left clean and everyone adjourned
peacefully. The order arrangements by the farmers'
association went smoothly and FSA is proud of the
event.” said Esterhuizen after the day. To Advertise please

A petition drawn up by FSA requesting that no bail
be granted to the suspects was handed over to the
public prosecutor on Monday. Thanks to pressure
from FSA and the agricultural community, the
suspects chose not to apply for bail. FSA welcomes
the development, especially in light of the fact that
the accused are already linked to other crimes in the
area. The organization also welcomes the info@weeklyview.co.za
appointment of a team of experts to investigate farm
murders and attacks in the Free State.
FSA has launched a petition inviting the public to
support those who oppose bail to farm murder
accused. To support FSA with the petition, a person

apply).
Bennie de Klerk, safety coordinator in the
Hennenman area, mentioned to FSA that the Hills
murders once again emphasized the issue of your
own safety. "We realized that we had to look at our
own safety situation with different eyes. That is why
the farm guard is in talks with the neighborhood
watch to see how we can work together to better
secure the rural area here.”
Esterhuisen supports the idea and believes that it is
time for farm guards and neighborhood watches to
work closely together, especially as it is clear that
crime activities are increasingly shifting from the city
to the rural areas.
