Dr Anthony says Martin Van Breda was most likely not aware of the attack, with his injuries indicating no defence.
A recap of Henri's version of events:
The lights were then turned on and he saw his father enter the room while the attack on Rudi was taking place.“My dad immediately moved towards and onto the bed, over Rudi, towards the attacker, who was on the opposite side of the bed. It looked as if he was trying to tackle the attacker or at least get between the attacker and Rudi.
“However, my dad was struck with the axe as he lunged towards the attacker. His body went limp on the bed and I did not see him move again.”
The attacker nevertheless hit him a number of times with the axe, and Henri said he recalled the intruder “laughing whilst he attacked my dad”.
