Elderly couple Ekard Schutte (76) and Elizabeth (66), and their son Lutz (33) were brutally murdered on their Springfield Farm in Richmond, KZN on March 1 2014.
Their trusted employee Zamokuhle Maduna (19) planned the attack. He brought in Siphesihle Ngubane (20) and a 17-year-old. They stabbed Ekard in the shed after luring him. They then ambushed Elizabeth and Lutz when they returned from the airport. (Lutz had just arrived in South Africa to visit his parents.) The savages stabbed them too. Then the monsters doused the bodies with PETROL and set the farmhouse ALIGHT to hide evidence.
This is the ongoing nightmare for White farmers in South Africa. Robbery? Or part of the pattern of farm murder terror?
