According to the Boksburg SAPS spokesperson, Lieut Kwendzakwakhe Ngobese, police were called to the scene at about 6pm on Thursday, November 19.
This was after members of the CPF noticed that something was amiss.
“CPF members became suspicious after they noticed that the doors, including the garage door, as well as the gate were half opened,” said Ngobese.
“Police entered the property and made a gruesome discovery when they found the woman’s bloodied body lying in her garage, buried under heavy objects, including steel structure and a wooden bridge.
“It then became apparent that the elderly woman, who was staying alone, was brutally attacked, as she suffered two stab wounds to the left of her neck and one stab wound to her waist.”
Ngobese said the traces of blood found on the dining room floor indicate the deceased had been dragged to the garage after she was stabbed.
Police believe the attackers forced their way into the home to steal valuable items.
Goods stolen include a TV set and a DVD player.
Ngobese said the woman’s son also became suspicious when his mother did not respond to his phone call.
He then asked one of the deceased’s neighbours to look for her, but she did not respond to the neighbour’s knock on the door.
A case of murder has been opened and no one has been arrested so far.
Ngobese strongly condemned the barbaric attack, and is requesting the assistance of the public in solving the murder.
Anyone with information in this regard is urged to contact the Boksburg police on 011 841 6859. -@FanieFLK http://boksburgadvertiser.co.za/248907/elderly-woman-found-brutally-murdered-in-parkrand/
