British woman murdered on Thabazimbi farm - AfriForum
Christine Robinson, a British woman in her fifties, was gruesomely beaten to death on her farm about 15 km outside Thabazimbi. The police are investigating the murder and rumour has it that two farmworkers, who may have a connection to the case, are missing.
