Farm murders in South Africa – ‘Only 33% of murder suspects are arrested’

February 28, 2023

The civil rights organisation AfriForum on 28 February 2023, launched its annual farm murder report for 2022. The report compares the number of farm murders with the number of suspects apprehended.

According to AfriForum, it is worrying that only 33% of murder suspects are arrested.

According to the report, farm attacks decreased in the past year from 415 attacks and 55 murders in 2021 to 333 attacks and 50 murders in 2022.

“Unfortunately, it is not clear whether the number of attacks actually decreased seeing as more and more cases are never reported to the police. I don’t think the public’s trust in the police has ever been as low as it is now,” says Jacques Broodryk, AfriForum’s spokesperson for Community Safety.
