She and her husband have made “countless reports to the Ruimveldt Police Station” but no action has yet been taken.“Every time we go there (Ruimveldt Police Station) they (police ranks) tell us to come back and give a statement,” said Redman. “Our lives have been threatened,Bradley Chubb Jersey, our property has been threatened and all we are told to do is give a statement.”Fernandes said that she has even identified the member of the gang to the police, but still nothing has been done to make them stop terrorizing her. “On a number of occasions they (gang members) have openly threatened to kill me and burn down the house,” she said.She said that she has even gone to the school of one of the gang members, with the police,China NFL Jerseys, to identify him (gang member), but still nothing has come out of it.Compounding her misery is the fact that her husband (Redman) is often not at home, since he works as a cook in the interior.

As the stones broke through her roof,Cheap NFL Jerseys From China, she said that she thought she was as good as dead.She said that from the time the stones started to rain down on her house, she thought that the sound was from automatic gunfire, since many of the gang members are apparently in possession of firearms.Fernandes added that she and her husband are forced to spend a great deal of their money repairing the damages, which the house incurs at the hands of these gang members.Even though the stones broke through her roof and caused considerable damage to the house, she was lucky not to be injured from the attack.While she was not hurt by the stones, she said that living in fear had taken its toll on her body.“I have lost so much weight,” she said, adding that her doctor told her that the reason for her weight loss is due to extreme stress.Both she and her husband have said that they do not understand why the police will not take action against the gang, but hinted that it may be because the father of one of the boys in the gang is a police officer.Fernandes said that the reason the gang has targeted her stems from a land dispute, which her (now deceased) neighbour had with members of the same gang.
