Kidnapped and Tortured: Pretoria Businessman Jerry Boshoga’s Family in Agony
Tragedy and terror strike Pretoria as the family of Jerry Boshoga, a respected farmer and businessman, continues to suffer after his shocking kidnapping in November 2024. The abduction took place in Centurion, following a business meeting — and heartbreakingly, it happened on the only day he didn’t have his bodyguards with him.
Since that day, disturbing videos have been sent to his family, showing Jerry being tortured by his captors. The emotional toll has been immense, as each video reveals the horrific reality of what he’s enduring.
Initially, the kidnappers demanded R60 million for his release. Recently, they lowered the ransom to R10 million, but the trauma for the Boshoga family has only deepened. Authorities are investigating the case, but so far, no arrests have been made.
Jerry’s loved ones are pleading for support and help from anyone who may have information. This tragic situation has also reignited concerns about business-related kidnappings in South Africa, where several high-profile individuals have become targets.
As the nation watches in horror, one question remains: Will Jerry make it home alive?
