Speaker Thandi Modise Appeals For Dismissal Of Animal Abuse Case Against Her Despite Testimony From Veterinarian!

Posted on 02/05/2021 Leave a comment

Adv. Dali Mpofu, legal representative for Thandi Modise, speaker of parliament, has brought an application for dismissal in the animal abuse case against her, when the case resumed in the Potchefstroom Regional Court, after testimony from a veterinarian and a former employee on her farm was heard yesterday. In a surprising twist, Mpofu asked the court to acquit Modise on the basis of insufficient evidence to link her to the abuse case.

The defense may bring such an application after the prosecution has closed their case, in terms of Section 174 of the Criminal Procedure Act. The damning testimony of Tebogo Mokaedi, the last farm worker to work on Modise’s farm in North West province, where hundreds of animals died in 2014, was claimed to be lies by a fellow witness.

Mokaedi had testified the day before that he had worked on Modise’s farm for about two months, but that he had only been paid R200 at the time. He further submitted that feed was only delivered to the

VIDEO: “Satan’s Children Are breaking Us” – Protestors Start Wildfires Which Rampages Across Farms in Freestate Destroying Farms, Livestock, Wildlife & Crops!

Posted on 21/10/2020 Leave a comment

A disaster is unfolding and the mainstream media is, as usual, silent because those they champion started it. A protest action in Hertzogville on Sunday 18 October led to the destruction of at least 100,000 hectares of grazing and agricultural land and the deaths of countless livestock and wildlife. The protest by the residents of Tokologo, the black township outside the town, was over the brackish taste of drinking water. They tried to set the JoJo water tanks on fire in strong winds. Tires were also set on fire in the stormy wind on the R708, to protest the ANC municipality’s poor handling of the problem. Sadly however, the willful irresponsibility of the radicalised protesters, led to the destruction of many farmers’ livestock and veld.

17 people were arrested and appeared in Hertzogville court and were given bail of R1,000 each, however the fires are still raging. In districts such as Hoopstad, Bultfontein, Dealesville and Boshoff, farmers and laborers are still struggli

Hacking gang brutally chopped R1 mil Boran stud bull to death and carried his meat away

Posted on 02/10/2019 Leave a comment

Mr Million, a stud bull for which his owner paid R1 000 000, had to be put to death after savage cattle meat raiders – you can imagine from which race – struck at a farm outside Brits in North West last Friday night.

It was a typical hacking gang that slash the cattle to death with machetes and then chop up the meat on the spot to carry it away. The hacking gangs that struck regularly on South African farms first slash off the hind leg tendons of the cattle so that they can’t run before hacking the cattle into pieces whilst they are still alive. The night guard arrived on the scene just after the hacking gang started to hack Mr Million. His hind tendons had by then already been hacked off and he already had deep slashes over his head and back. The hacking gang had by then chopped up several cows and fled with the meat.

The owner of the farm, Mr Ockert Werner, says he lost 4 cattle in this way this month alone. Mr Werner bought Mr Million in 2011. He says he was v
