eNCA | Foundation to take action against people who ‘fail to protect children’
PRETORIA – The Go Purple Foundation plans to open a case of murder and child abuse at the Pretoria Central Police station.
The campaign says it’s tired of social workers, police officers and judicial personnel who fail to protect children from violence.
This comes after the brutal murder of three-year-old Poppie van der Merwe.

Poppie’s mother and stepfather were convicted of the crime last week.
The NGO says several key role players took pictures of the incident but failed to protect her.
It plans to open a criminal case, alongside several other organisations, in Pretoria on Monday.
