Leaders from both the ANC and the EFF have publicly, on TV, sung "Kill the farmer, Kill the boer" - so why are now now back tracking on it?
Outrage surrounds book claiming top ANC officials ‘killed the boer'
Kill The Boer, a book that politicians have labelled as racial populism...
While the police and agricultural body AgriSA have found that farm murders have decreased to their lowest level in 20 years, lobby group AfriForum's deputy CEO Ernst Roets said on Thursday that there had been a significant increase this year.
Roets, during the launch of his book Kill the Boer in Centurion, said that according to AfriForum's own statistics, there had been 34 farm murders and more than 210 farm attacks since the beginning of 2018.
He said this was a 34% increase in the first six months of this year, compared to 2017.
In May, AgriSA released figures of farm murders and attacks which were based on police statistics, its own research and media reports. These showed a decline in farm murders, and a slight increase in farm attacks.
Two men who are allegedly linked to the murder of a Kei Road farmer in the Eastern Cape have been arrested and face charges of murder and armed robbery.
The two men, aged 21 and 24, were arrested by police on Wednesday night in Peelton outside King William's Town.
Police spokesperson Captain Siphokazi Mawisa said following investigations, officers were led to the suspects' hideout.
She said the men then took the police to an open field in Peelton where they showed them where several guns had been buried.
Mawisa said three hunting rifles were recovered after police dug up the hole. She said the rifles were stolen from Kei Road in the beginning of March.

Freedom fighters for sure. Mind you, what is the life expectancy among black, SA males? At 24 he is almost halfway there. You see, it is all relative.Barely out of school
Freedom fighters for sure. Mind you, what is the life expectancy among black, SA males? At 24 he is almost halfway there. You see, it is all relative.
Let me feed the racist troll and see him make a fool of himself again.
Do you even know what life expectancy is? Do you understand how it's measured? Do you know what factors influence this measure? Evidently not, seeing that you have no grasp of basic concepts.
Well, it seems he is correct:
57,44 years (2015) according to the World Bank.
And that's for everyone. Females raise it. So it could be lower for Africans males.
AfriForum wants Malema investigated for ‘role’ in farm murders
Minority rights group AfriForum wants police to investigate whether Economic Freedom Fighters’ leader Julius Malema has offered to help an imprisoned gang member to murder white farmers when he gets out of jail. The group made this claim yesterday at the launch of their book, Kill The Boer, authored by the group’s deputy CEO Ernst Roets.
In a gruesome presentation on the brutality of attacks on farmers in isolated areas, a sound clip that was part of a Carte Blanche investigation last year has a man speaking in Afrikaans saying Malema promised to help him continue killing farmers when he was released from prison. The person is supposedly a member of the brutal prison gang the 28s.

I'm sure Malema goes himself to jail to speak to detainees about it...
At best he would send people, and these people would not mention their sponsor...
Wepenaar - Two men will soon appear in the Wepener Magistrate’s Court on charges of murder, housebreaking and theft, theft of a motor vehicle, and possession of unlicensed firearms and ammunition following two farm murders last week, Free State police said on Sunday.
"This comes after the double murder of a 78-year-old farmer and his 68-year-old wife during a farm attack in Vanstadensrus on Monday night, 25 June 2018," Sergeant Mosili Ntsika said.
After stealing firearms, cellphones, and other items the suspects fled in a silver-grey Chevrolet Spark belonging to the murdered couple. Police recovered the car on Tuesday evening after it was abandoned at a sports ground in Wepener, about 30km from Vanstadensrus.
"Their freedom was short-lived when Detective Constable Mosala Mositoane of Vanstadensrus detectives, Detective Constable Zanempi Ntuli of Wepener detectives, and Warrant Officer Koos Motapane of Wepener Vispol [visable policing] worked tirelessly around the clock to trace and arrest the suspects," Ntsika said
