Albertinia residents bid farewell to 2 murdered girls

Residents in the small Western Cape Town of Albertinia will gather on Sunday to bid a final farewell to two young girls who were murdered.

Sunday’s funeral follows several memorial services held in the past week.

Just over a week ago, the bodies of Sharon Arries and Jacorene Vaaltyn were discovered in a shack.

The little girls were nine and 10 years old.

Police have arrested a suspect in connection with their deaths. Their alleged killer – a 53- year-old Theronville resident abandoned his bail bid when he appeared in court this past week.

Sharon and Jacorene are two of four children found murdered in the Western Cape within a space of five days.

On Monday, the body of a 10-year-old boy was discovered among bushes along Weltevreden road in Philippi.

At the same time, four-year-old Tamia Botha’s body was found on a school field in Paarl East after her mother reported her missing the previous day.

Botha will be laid to rest on Friday.
