Bettie Nel and boyfriend
An elderly woman escaped death during a farm attack after a bullet missed her and became lodged in her Bible.
The attack reportedly took place on Saturday night outside Mahikeng in the North West.
Netwerk24 reported that Bettie Nel, 82, was woken by noises and encountered two attackers in the passage of the house.
After throwing a doorstop at them, a shot was fired and the suspects fled.
The bullet missed Nel and hit the Bible on the side table next to her bed.
Nel's daughter, Noeline Ferreira, 61, and Ferreira's boyfriend, Thys Pienaar, 63, sustained head injuries after reportedly being attacked in bed with the handle of a pickaxe and a flashlight.
The bible
Netwerk24 reports that six suspects stole a firearm and cellphones. According to that publication, no one has been arrested.
Last week, AgriSA condemned what it called "the continued violence that the farming community and fellow South Africans face daily".
This followed the announcement of the 2017/18 national crime statistics in Parliament on Tuesday.
During the period under review, South Africa's murder rate increased by 6.9%.
In real numbers, this means that a total of 20 336 people were murdered in South Africa in the past year, 1 320 more than in the previous year.
Sixty-two of these were categorised as farm murders: 12 in Gauteng, nine each in Limpopo and the North West, eight each in Mpumalanga and the Free State, seven in KwaZulu-Natal, and three each in the Eastern Cape, Northern Cape and Western Cape.

Nutritionist at Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH) said chemical preservatives and sweeteners contained in most children fruit juices tend to increase the level of body acidity, thereby making them more susceptible to different diseases after constant consumption.

As most of them are made from concentrates, the fruit juice is obtained from fruits and then filtered through a processor that extracts water. This way, the juice takes up less space when transported. Before being packaged and sold, water is added back into the concentrated juice and it is

The rule of law

A nation is a creation of law and it must be governed by law. Its interests must, therefore, be subordinated to law and be seen gazing through the law. National interest that is placed above the law is hogwash; it has no foundation and it can only lead to acrimony, conflict, violence and more violence, and disaster. The Rule of Law is the first evidence of civilisation, for it curbs human tendencies and peccadilloes and separates man from animal and states from a jungle and the land of chaos. It confines a society to a moral compass. It gives a citizen the sense of being. With the Rule of Law behind him a citizen feels on top of the mountain, unreachable and unapproachable. He is free from harassment, intimidation and abuse of the man of power. He is free from the Rule of Man and being a victim of arbitrariness. It subordinates the Rule of Might under the Law. In a clash between the Rule of Might and the Rule of Law it is the Rule of Might that is invariably worsted. The Rule of Law
