Jurgens Nel’s murder, a chilling voicenote he sent a week before his death, and the legal drama surrounding Tswale the elephant have left the Onderberg on tenterhooks.

The death of Jurgens Nel, who was found murdered in his room on the farm Lowhills, and a voicenote he had sent a week before his death, have left more questions than answers.

Nel asked Sithole to help him, and claimed Joubert and her life partner, Johann Möller, had requested him to leave the farm, but according to him, they had no legal right to do so. “These guys are playing dirty, and you don’t know what they are going to do. I’m just trying to play it safe and stay on the farm,” the voicenote says.

Nguyuza testified that Joubert didn’t have a fixed address, and that he was opposing her bail. He cited their Mpumalanga High Court battle with Shofeeds and claimed that “they have been dodging the police and sheriff for a long time, so what will stop them from dodging the court this time?”
