2010-12-25 Janine Meintjies, dies next day of knife-and hammer attack, Dundee smallholding: widowed mother of 2 small children
Jan 5 2011 – Dundee, KZN - It has been confirmed by two sources and the SAPS Dundee that a young widowed mother of two small children, Mrs. Janine Meintjies, died on 25/12/2010 from injuries sustained due to a knife and hammer attack on her smallholding in Dundee on the Friday-evening before.
Roy Carroll, one of the sources, wrote on his Face book page and on Farmitracker.com that her two young children fortunately were not home at the time.
A friend of the family, Gary Potgieter, also wrote on Face book on January 7 2011 that ‘her attacker was apprehended on the night of December 30/31 by a Newcastle Task Force. He was arrested in his shack about 40km from Dundee. The motive for the attack is still unclear, but what was clear is that only minor items were stolen. So far, it appears he was acting alone. He had cut a pane of glass out of one of her windows and placed it back, so that he could gain entry easily at a later time. “
The Dundee SAPS, tel. 034 299-9700 and/or 034 212-2121 confirmed that ‘the incident is being investigated.’ "http://www.farmitracker.com/reports/view/892
