The mystery farm-death of Professor Adriaan Smit, Plot 13, Nylstroom Sector 3: SAPS Pietersburg claims he died of 'natural causes' (PAGEGRAB ATTACHED)
-------------
CPF-member Francois Malan writes on January 22 2014 at 6h39am:"Definite proof of the covering up of genocide' -"Yesterday around 2pm I receive a call that there was a farm murder early in the morning. The farm is located a stonethrow away from town and located in the Community Policing Forum Sector 3 (Nylstroom).
We call the official responsible for Sector 3 and hear that they have also just found out about it.
However - the SA Police Service from Pietersburg already were at the scene early that morning and are still at the scene'.
At exactly 17h47 on 21 January 2014 I receive the following sms:"Prof Adriaan Smit of Plot 13 died YESTERDAY. The SAPS says he died of natural causes.' The 'yesterday' refers to the previous day, 20 January 2014.
1. He was found naked next to a wire-fence.
2. His vehivle was nearby but the keys are missing.
3. His wallet is missing.
Malan writes: "We will investigate this further today. He lived alone so there are no witnesses that we are aware of.'

Maar die SAPD wat van Pietersburg afkomstig is,was al vroegoggend daar en is nogsteeds op die toneel. Presies 16H47 ;21 Januarie 2014 ontvang ek 'n sms wat die volgende bewoord. "Prof. Adriaan Smit van Plot 13 is gister dood.Die SAPD se hy is aan natuurlike oorsake dood."

NEWS REPORT:
Professor's body found: 24 January 2014, journalist: Denise van Bergen
Nylstroom Post journalist Denis van Bergen writes: Professor Adriaan Smit 89 of Sussenvale Plot 18 outside Modimolle was found dead by a farm-worker on Tuesday-morning 21 January outside his farm.
SAPS spokesman warrant-officer James Findlay said that the farm worker, who is believed to having worked for Smit, came across his body at 08h00 that morning (January 21 2014) outside on the erf.
Findlay said there were 'no visible signs of injuries to Smit's body which indicated that he could have been murdered'. His house was locked and the investigating officer said the keys of his house were found near his body.
His watch was still on his wrist. According to the police it did not look as if anything was stolen.
The SAPS could not provide more information by the time of our going to press because the case and the circumstances of his death are still being investigated.
Smit was a professor at Unisa where he retired. It is believed he was the author of various dictionaries.
One of his friends and neighbours Johan Hennop said Smit led a lonely life on his farm. "He was not in the habit of locking his house. The doors often stood open and we were
worried that he would be attacked in his home one day. We were trying countless times to get him to go and stay at a retirement home where it was safer but he didn't want to know,"Hennop told Die Pos (Nylstroom).
Shortly after Smit's body was found rumours circulated amongst the Sussenvale residents that he was 'murdered and found naked.
The SAPS could not confirm this information. Findlay said until a post-mortem enquiry has been held we cannot be certain exactly what the death-cause was.'

Professor se lyk gevind - 24 January 2014 journalist: Denise van Bergen
Die liggaam van prof. Adriaan Smit (89) van Sussenvale, gedeelte 18 buite Modimolle, is op Dinsdagoggend, 21 Januarie, deur ’n plaaswerker buite op sy plaas gevind.
Volgens polisiewoordvoerder, ao. James Findlay, het die plaaswerker, wat vermoedelik vir Smit gewerk het, om ongeveer 08:00 dié oggend op sy liggaam afgekom
waar dit buite op die werf gelê het.
Findlay sê dat daar geen sigbare beserings aan Smit se liggaam was wat aandui dat hy moontlik vermoor is nie. Sy huis was glo gesluit en volgens die ondersoekbeampte is die
sleutels van die huis by sy liggaam gevind. Sy polshorlosie was ook nog aan sy arm. Volgens die polisie lyk dit nie asof enigiets gesteel is nie.
Die polisie kon teen druktyd nie meer inligting verskaf nie, aangesien die saak en omstandighede van sy dood nog ondersoek word.
Smit was vroeër ’n professor by Unisa, waar hy afgetree het. Hy was glo ook ’n skrywer van verskeie woordeboeke.
Volgens een van Smit se bure en ’n vriend van hom, Johan Hennop, het Smit vir jare ’n eensame lewe alleen op sy plaas gelei.
“Hy was nie in die gewoonte om sy huis te sluit nie. Die deure het dikwels oop gestaan en ons was bekommerd dat iemand hom eendag in sy huis sou oorval.
Ons het hom talle male probeer oorreed om eerder in ’n aftreeoord te gaan bly waar dit veiliger is, maar hy wou niks weet nie,” het Hennop aan Die Pos gesê.
Kort nadat Smit se liggaam gevind is, het gerugte onder die inwoners van Sussenvale die rondte begin doen dat hy vermoor en kaal op sy plaaswerf aangetref is.
Die polisie kon egter nie hierdie inligting bevestig nie.
“Totdat ’n geregtelike nadoodse ondersoek gedoen is, kan ons nie met sekerheid sê wat presies sy dood veroorsaak het nie,” het Findlay gesê.
