Medelye stroom steeds in n\u00e1 die grusame moord op \u2019n geliefde inwoner van Kroonstad wie se heengaan wyd betreur word. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Johan Botha (78), ook bekend as \u201cOom Gif\u201d na aanleiding van sy jarelange betrokkenheid in die landboubedryf, se roudiens sal Donderdag (13\/07) om 11:00 in die NG kerk Kroonstad-Oos plaasvind. Die diens sal deur ds. Marius Barnard gelei word. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Botha se lyk is op 3 Julie in sy woning in Bormanstraat, Wilgenhof, met diep kopwonde in \u2019n plas bloed gevind. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bure het op hom afgekom nadat \u2019n vriend van Botha hom nie telefonies kon bereik nie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die polisie s\u00ea dit wil voorkom asof die moordverdagtes die skuifdeur en veiligheidshek oopgebreek het om toegang tot die huis te verkry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2019n Hamer, moontlik die moordwapen, is langs Botha gevind en die huis was deurmekaar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Botha was jare lank werksaam by Agricura en Rumevite en het baie nou bande met boere in die omgewing gehad. In sy werk het hy gereeld met besproeiingsvliegtuie gevlieg en hy het \u2019n groot voorliefde vir vlieg ontwikkel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Buiten \u2019n passie vir die landboubedryf en vlieg was hy \u2019n kranige gholfspeler en het hy elke Donderdag by die Kroonstad-gholfklub gespeel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Voorheen het VrystaatKroon<\/i><\/span>berig dat lede van die Kroonstad-gholfklub erg geskok was oor Botha se dood en dat hulle hom altyd sal onthou as \u2019n vriendelike man wat graag grappies gemaak het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cOns nooi almal na die roudiens, om saam my pa se lewe by die Kroonstad-gholfklub te kom vier, dit was immers een van die plekke waar hy baie gelukkig was,\u201d s\u00ea Dries Botha, sy seun. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Dries (43) is \u2019n akteur en vertolk die rol van James Blignaut, die pastoor Orpa se man, in die kykNET-sepie Suidooster<\/span>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Botha se dogter, Jorita (45), is werksaam in Londen en woon reeds die afgelope 22 jaar in die buiteland. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Botha se vrou, Marita, is verlede jaar oorlede.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Die polisie ondersoek \u2019n saak van moord en versoek enigiemand wat moontlik inligting het rakende die misdaad om Sers. Moakhi Ramokhothoane van die Kroonstad-speurtak te kontak op 084-712-0654, of die Stopmisdaad\u00adnommer 08600-10111.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Medelye stroom steeds in
