On the 25th of October 2017, a paramedic spotted a man running toward him in the parking lot of Brits Provincial Hospital. In his arms was the limp body of a young girl. Her name was Poppie van der Merwe and how she came to be deceased in her stepfather’s arms was a story beyond comprehension.
Poppie was only three years old when she died in Brits in October 2016. She had been abused for eight months by her mother and stepfather.
