Johannesburg - Western Cape police appealed for help on Friday in finding the attackers of a farm worker and his employees in Ben Barnard estate in Paarl in June.
On June 26 about 20:30 a farm worker saw four men trespassing at the Cape Pine Wood business's farm and approached them to ask why they were there, said Captain John Waterhouse.
When he realised they were carrying firearms, he tried to run but was shot in the left arm. The farmer's wife then noticed them stealing cables from the garage
The men held her at gunpoint and she called out to her husband. He called the police, but when they arrived the group had fled the scene.
An identity kit had been compiled which police believe would help find the men.
