Family takes heart as generous campaign raises more than R100k

While the majority of donors were locals‚ the organisation said it had received a few international donations.

One generous donor pledged R31‚000. The campaign was started by individuals who preferred not to be named. BackaBuddy said it would strictly manage the funds.

“We process payouts every month or we pay directly to the family‚ doctor or relevant practitioner‚” Groenewald said‚ noting that some people were wary of donating to such initiatives.

“People can be very sceptical‚ but we are a small team that checks everything with a fine toothcomb‚” he said. The man accused of raping the girl in the eatery’s bathroom is expected to make his second court appearance on November 1.

He faces charges of rape‚ possession of drugs and assault with intent to cause grievous bodily harm.
