Survived Afrikaner student Cindy Meyer of Akasia brutally beaten by 'beggar' who smashed her eye in with his fist - in Rebecca Street, Pretoria: nothing robbed
---- Her mother said that thugs clearly target young females travelling this road enroute and from the Pretoria Technology University. The attack was not reported
to the police because 'nothing was stolen', she said.
Report by Elaine Strauss 24 October 2014 - Student Cindy Meyer, an honours-student at the Pretoria University of Technology, was enroute to a class at 10am
when a 'beggar' accosted her while she was driving underneath the bridge in Rebecca Straat, demanding that she give him cash. She refused - and the man
smashed his fist into her face, striking one eye. Cindy's mom Marinda said the thug didn't steal anything because all her belongings were locked in the car boot.
"She was too shocked to do anything but a man driving behind her tried to chase the thug, who had run away in the direction of Marabastad,' said her mom.
Cindy is preparing to write exams. "We are always worried when she drives to her class: her car has no air-conditioning and she drives with her window slightly
open." The mother said that 'because nothing was stolen they didnt report the attack to the police. "They are clearly targeting young girls - especially those who
drive that road to get to the Pretoria Technical University, said the mother.
SAPS spokeswoman Ann Poortman commented that there are more 'general robberies targeting students and women rather than 'smash-and-grab' incidents.
"The motorists must keep their doors and windows locked and closed at all times, and specifically do not roll down their windows for people selling things next
to the roadside. And victims must report such incidents to the police so that they can 'become aware of crime hotspots', she said.
