DA Outraged by Brutal Mpumalanga Farm Attack

The Democratic Alliance (DA) expresses deepest outrage and condemnation over the barbaric attack on 70-year-old Carolina farmer, Rolé Uys, in Mpumalanga.

The cruelty of this assault, where

boiling water was poured over Ms Uys before she was chained, gagged and left for dead
, defies comprehension.

This incident is yet another reminder of the daily fear faced by farmers and rural residents across South Africa. That Ms Uys had already survived a similar attack only two months ago makes this failure of protection even more appalling.

Farm Attacks and Rural Safety remain a national crisis. Rural South Africans continue to live in fear, often isolated, under-resourced, and too frequently abandoned by those meant to protect them.

Author's summary: DA condemns brutal farm attack in Mpumalanga.
