Elderly Afrikaner resident Cathy Barnard of an expensive high-security complex may have been tied up and tortured extensively in 'revenge when management fired a gardener recently,' residents believe after the horrific attack on the 73-year-old Mrs Barnard in her bathroom.
Local residents at the complex are very angered by the attack and blame the 'lax security' who must have opened the security guards to 'someone they knew' because there are no signs of breakin at the security gates. Mrs Barnard was ambushed by a black man in her bathroom, tied up with a dog lash to the shower head and horrifically assaulted and beaten. Her screams during the torture ordeal had residents rushing to her aid, writes the Afrikaans daily Beeld.
Residents believe this was a revenge attack because only a cellphone was 'robbed'. Nothing else, not one other valuable, was stolen from her home, they pointed out.
Barnard's daughters Carien Kerens and Adri Robinson rushed to the scene on Monday morning 9 March 2015, and reportedly were very angry - indeed weeping with anger about the treatment meted out to their innocent mom. While the Netwerk24.com journalists were at the scene police of the Garsfontein police station also were in the apartment but it's not known why as nobody has been arrested. It's not known if any forensic investigations could be done because so many residents rushed to her aid when rushing to her aid that forensic traces may have been wiped out, insiders believe.
Mrs Barnard is said to be recovering from her ordeal at the local Faerie Glen, Pretoria HOspital.
