Die niggie van die vrou wat deur haar lewensmaat in hul huis in Hopetown vermoor is, het Woensdag huilend in die hooggeregshof in Kimberley getuig hoe die oorledene se seun wat sy nou versorg, nagmerries kry en vertel hoe hy sy ma mis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Johanna Badula wat geen kinders van haar eie het nie, maar na die oorledene se seun en vier van haar minderjarige susterskinders omsien, het getuig hoe die 11-jarige seun sommige nagte nie kan slaap nie en so hard skreeu wanneer hy nagmerries kry, dat almal in die huis wakker word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sy het getuig ter strafverswaring van Salmon Kammies (42) van Hopetown wat reeds skuldig bevind is dat hy Lizel Louw op die nag van 2 Mei 2024 aangerand het, met sy stewels geskop en met \u0149 stuk draad aangerand waarna hy haar geslagsdeel gepenetreer het terwyl sy sterwend of reeds dood was.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hy is vroe\u00ebr vandeesweek deur adjunkregterpresident Violet Phatsoane van aanranding met die doel om Lizel Louw ernstig te beseer, haar moord en in die alternatief van seksuele handelinge met \u0149 lyk skuldig bevind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LEES OOK:<\/strong> Staat voer aan man het sy lewensmaat vermoor, lyk seksueel geskend<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Badula het vertel dat die seun n\u00e1 sy ma se moord eerste by \u0149 tante gebly het, maar die tante het hom glo verwaarloos en het gedrink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSy is baie ongeskik met my.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die plaaslike maatskaplike werkers het haar gevra of sy na die seun sal omsien, en sy het ingestem. Sedert Augustus verlede jaar versorg sy die seun by haar huis<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sy is werkloos en steun op haar ma, en susterskinders se maatskaplike toelae om vir almal insluitend die seun, te versorg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSy tante gee my nou en dan \u2018n deeltjie van die maatskaplike toelae wat sy kry om na die seun om te sien.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Badula kan eers die seun se toelae kry wanneer die Kinderhof \u0149 bevel uitreik.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHy kan nie slaap nie, en kry erge nagmerries.\u00a0 Hy gaan aan die skreeu en storm by die huis uit. As hy s\u00f3 raak, neem ek hom na die kamer om hom te troos. Maar hy kan nie praat oor wat in sy binneste aangaan nie, hy vertel net dat hy sy ma mis en hoe hy van haar droom. Hy is baie afgetrokke en loop net weg as ek s\u00ea hy moet praat oor dit wat hom pla. Soms los ek hom maar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cToe hy vandeesweek die polisievoertuig by ons huis sien, het hy weer \u0149 toeval gehad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 \u201cEk sukkel soms om hom by die skool te kry ween sy emosionele trauma. Ek het al vir  die maatskaplike werkers gevra of hulle nie sielkundige hulp vir hom kan kry, maar niks het nog gebeur nie. Die een werker het ook bedank, en niemand is nog in haar plek aangestel nie.\u201d
Die seun se pa wat ook in Hopetown is nie by die seun betrokke nie, en betaal ook nie onderhoud nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die getuie het so emosioneel geraak dat die hof vir \u0149 wyle verdaag is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adv. Anel Stellenberg, aanklaer, het vroe\u00ebr aangevoer Louw se seun het getuig dat die paartjie vroe\u00ebr die aand by hul huis in Sonneblomstraat gedrink het. Later die aand het hy bevrees aanskou hoe sy ma deur Kammies met sy stewels aanhoudend geskop is. Later het hy haar met \u0149 stuk bloudraad geslaan en water oor haar uitgegooi. Sy ma het nie weerstand gebied nie, en Kammies het die seun aanges\u00ea om te gaan slaap. Die seun se getuienis het gestrook met die beserings aan sy ma se kop, lyf en bene. Die seun het die gebeure vanuit sy kamer en die kombuis gadegeslaan. Later het hy sy ma op die bed gehelp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Later die nag het Kammies na sy suster en di\u00e9 se man, Marie en Gert Williams, se huis gegaan om te s\u00ea hy en Louw het \u0149 rusie gehad en hy het homself met \u0149 draad \u201cverdedig omdat sy hom met \u0149 mes wou steek\u201d. Kammies het teenoor polisielede erken hy het \u0149 draad gebruik \u201cter selfverdediging\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hannes Rust het vir Kammies opgetree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Phatsoane het die verhoor tot 18 Maart uitgestel.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
