Die verdagte in die moord op Karl Lauks (73) van Tulbagh, het Maandagoggend (9 Junie) in die hof op di\u00e9 dorp verskyn. Die saak is uitgestel tot 17 Junie vir ‘n borgtogaansoek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vriende van Lauks het inwoners gevra om saam met hulle voor die hof te vergader om hul ontsteltenis oor die voorval te kenne te gee. Die verdagte, sowel as \u2018n groep ander mans, is volgens hulle berug daarvoor dat hulle ouer, enkellopende mans en vroue teiken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lauks is verlede Maandagoggend (2 Junie) dood in sy motor in die oprit van sy huis in Piet Retiefstraat in Tulbagh deur \u2018n buurvrou gevind. Volgens berigte wou dit voorkom asof \u2018n serp in sy mond gedruk is en hy versmoor is. Christaan Witbooi (29) is daarna in hegtenis geneem en het Woensdag (4 Junie) in die hof verskyn. Die saak is tot vandag uitgestel sodat hy regsverteenwoordiging kan kry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Samantha Krzandalsky, wat na aan Lauks was, s\u00ea dat hy die teiken was van verskeie aanvalle. \u201cHy het in vrees gelewe en was bang om saans huis toe te gaan. Daar is herhaaldelik by hom ingebreek. Een van die mans is reeds in die tronk, maar die man wat nou gevang is, het Karl en ander ouer mense wat alleen woon geteiken en gereeld moeilikheid gemaak.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tydens die inbrake, wat selfs gebeur wanneer Lauks tuis was en geslaap het, is goed gebreek, deure afgeskop en koperpype uit die mure gekap. \u201cHy het naderhand moed opgegee en nie eers meer skade reggemaak nie,\u201d het Krzandalsky ges\u00ea. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lauks het sy skouer \u2018n ruk gelede na \u2018n val gebreek en was minder mobiel daarna.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lauks se pitbull, waarna hy verwys het as \u201cCrocodile\u201d, was in die huis ten tyde van sy moord. Sy was egter oud en het kanker gehad en moes ongelukkig verlede week vankant gemaak word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Geliefd in die gemeenskap<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lauks, \u2018n Britse burger wat nie familie in Suid-Afrika het nie, het as \u2018n bestuurder in die tekstielbedryf gewerk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSy werkgewer het hom baie jare gelede Suid-Afrika toe gestuur vir werk en hy het besluit om te bly,\u201d vertel Krzandalsky waar sy langs Lauks se gunstelingstoel in die Herold\u2019s Pub and Grub sit. \u201cSy vrou is op 45 aan kanker oorlede. Ons het mekaar vier jaar gelede in Tulbagh ontmoet n\u00e1 ek hierheen verhuis het na my man se afsterwe. Ons het baie geheg aan mekaar geraak en hy het na my verwys as sy aanneem-dogter.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inwoners beskryf Lauks as \u2018n stil man wat baie geliefd was in die gemeenskap. Hy was \u2018n bekende gesig by kuierplekke in die dorp waar hy rustig ure lank aan \u2018n bier sou drink. “Hier by die restaurante en kroe\u00eb waar hy kom eet het, was die mense vir hom soos familie,” het inwoners vertel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By Heroldt’s word daar met hartseer gepraat oor Lauks se afsterwe. “Ons sal sy s\u00ea-goed onthou. Hy het altyd ges\u00ea ‘Got to go and feed my Crocodile<\/em>‘, verwysend na sy pitbull. En ‘No ice, ice is for Eskimo’s<\/em>‘. Ons beplan om ‘n naamplaatjie ter herdenking van hom op die kroegtoonbank by sy sitplek te plaas.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOns almal het na hom omgesien. Hy het niemand leed aangedoen nie en nie verdien om so te sterf nie,\u201d het Krzandalsky ges\u00ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
