In July there were three murders, farm invasions, beatings, stabbings, and one woman was deliberately scalded with boiling water.
Four were arrested within two hours of the murder.
Reports say the victim was forced into his house, where the thieves demanded firearms and cash.
His death was attributed to a blunt force trauma to his face. His wife was also assaulted but survived.
After ransacking the home, the intruders made off with cash, three guns, and the couple’s Renault Kwid. They were arrested after authorities were notified when the stolen vehicle was crashed.
