People are becoming more and more desperate for money, and they will go to extreme lengths to get it.
On Tuesday, February 2 Mr Erenst du Preez was sitting with family at a doctor’s rooms in Klipfontein waiting to travel with them back to his house after working the evening.
While waiting Du Preez decided he was going to walk to the shop along the sidewalk to buy refreshments while they wait.
As Du Preez got to a corridor he was grabbed by two young men.
“The one grabbed me by my neck and pushed me into the corridor and then into an open area in the middle of the centre, he stuck his hand into my shirt and took R1 000,” said a very emotional Du Preez.
Once they got the money they punched him in his kidneys until he was down on the ground.
“I am in so much pain, but people just walked past, and they did nothing,” said Du Preez.
