Farmer owners in Stellenbosch are in fear after the death of Alberto Costa.
Farm owners believe that a gang could be behind the murder of Costa.
Provincial police spokes-man Lieutenant Colonel André Traut said “It’s too early to speculate about a gang or syndicate. We’re treating it as a murder case and will be looking at all the possibilities.”
The murder has sparked fear among farmers in Stellenbosch.
Philip Kriel, vice-chairman of the Stellenbosch Agricultural Society, said that over the last year or so farmers had been targeted regularly. He said he had been robbed five or six times in the last year, mostly by thieves looking for copper.
