Durban - KWAZULU-NATAL is the leading province with the most farm murders recorded in 2020, according to statistics released by AfriForum.
The statistics were released two days after two best friends, Nhlanhla Mhlongo, 22, and Sakhile Cele, 25, were arrested and appeared in court for murder of retired KZN farmer Goberdhan “Dan” Sahadew, 74, at his home at Holmbosch Farm on February 6, 2021, from which he ran a tuck shop.
Police spokesperson Colonel Thembeka Mbele said the friends allegedly locked the door, assaulted, strangled, and stabbed Sahadew once on the chest. They took his cellphones, shotgun, cash and other items and drove away in his vehicle. The vehicle was later found abandoned not far from the crime scene. His body was found by customers.
