Crime in South Africa sometimes leads to very unusual situations. A couple in the process of being robbed by two armed men could be rescued thanks to the Skype call software. The mother was in line with her son, a student in Paris at the time of the attack.
The night of his birthday, Tessa Reddy is in line with his son Skype . She lives in the Melville neighborhood Johannesburg while the young man is in Paris where he studied.
But while his wife and son argue, the father falls face to face with two armed men who come to enter his home.
Burglars threaten with a gun, and then hang up the room where his wife is, always in line with their son.
The robbers assaulted his parents
The student hears the thieves threaten and brutalize his parents. From Paris, where he found the young man while warning his brother and other family members in Johannesburg and Cape Town.
The arrival of the Police alerted by relatives routs thieves. They still stole several thousand euros in materials and cash.
Tessa Reddy believes that his ordeal could have lasted long hours without the intervention of his son, at the other end of the world.
This story, widely reported by the South African press, recalls another: that of a South African journalist, stripped while he was on live TV a few months ago .
