Pressure on police minister over farm attacks


 Civil rights group Afriforum says the stories of hundreds of people affected by farm murders will be presented to police minister Nathi Mthetwa.

The organisation says the victims are demanding that the Minister break his silence by declaring farm attacks a priority crime.

Afriforum says the stories of the victims are contained in letters that will be presented to Minister Mthetwa in Pretoria on Thursday.

They include a letter from a woman who's father and brother were murdered on their farm in Brits over the holidays.

The Hawks have also taken over a probe into two farm murders this month in which two elderly couples were murdered in Limpopo and Free State.
