Anyone with information should contact the Hartswater police station on 053 474 2155.
Earlier this month, an 80-year-old woman was attacked with an iron pipe on her farm in the Zastron area in the Free State, kidnapped and dropped off in sub-zero weather in Lesotho barefoot, wearing only her nightgown. She sought help after crossing a rugged piece of veld.
Daleen van der Hoven has since recovered.
