ENKELE minute nadat ’n Welkomse egpaar met vakansie vertrek het, het twee diewe helder oordag die veiligheidshek losgemaak, opgelig en die krag afgeskakel. Die diewe het ’n uur lank voor die Goudrif-Dienssentrum met ’n wit voertuig op-en afgery en toe by die erf ingegaan. Die slotte van die veiligheidshek en deur is oopgebreek en hulle het onder meer drie televisiestelle en ’n rekenaar en al die vrou se juwele uitgedra. Die egpaar het nie versekering nie. Dít alles is op kringtelevisie vasgelê. Terwyl die polisie daar was, het die voertuig verskeie kere weer daar verby gery. Die vermoede bestaan dat hulle nog goed wou wegdra. Daan Kruger, eienaar van Eenheid 9 van die kompleks, sê hy is stomgeslaan oor die arrogansie van die inbrekers. “Hulle het selfs vir my buurvrou gesê die hek is stukkend en hulle herstel dit. “Sy het egter onraad vermoed toe hulle ons televisiestelle begin uitdra. Sy het my gebel en ek het dadelik die polisie in kennis gestel.” Daan en sy vrou, Doris, was toe reeds naby Bloemfontein. Hulle het dadelik omgedraai en huiswaarts gekeer. Hulle beplande maandlange vakansie was toe daarmee heen. Daan sê hy en Doris het op Sondag 10 April omstreeks 10:00 die pad gevat. Om 10:02 was die inbrekers daar met ’n wit voertuig en het hulle die veiligheidshek uitgelig, effens oopgemaak en weer op die spore gesit. Om 11:14 het hulle doodluiters ingestap en die slotte van die deure oopgebreek. Die DVR-kamera is in die
Gunmen slammed they could have hit a moving vehicle if they are skilled shots. We are also saddened that if this is how they shoot, that perhaps many birds are maimed and left to die a terrible suffering death. The pellets hit the window frame, a mere centimeter from Ernest’s face. I dread to think what could have happened. We feel that the public should know about this,” says Smit. She says the SPCA vehicle is the lifeline to many stray, abandoned and surrendered animals. “We are in no financial position to replace it. Damage of more than R5 600 has occurred. The owner of the hunting company has agreed to pay fully for the repair of the vehicle”. Vista approached the owner of the company for comment. She was very distressed and insisted that the incident was not newsworthy. “I will not allow you to publish this article. It will do untold damages. I will give you a donation not to publish. I have already paid for the damages and admitted guilt. Why is this still a story? Your newspaper obviously doesn’t have any other news,” she said. The incident has been reported to nature conservation, and the SPCA is considering further steps. “While I know that permits are issued for this activity, I would like this to be addressed by all parties. It is irresponsible and unacceptable to shoot across a public road,” says Smit.

VIRGINIA SPCA INSPECTOR Ernest Khaukhau escaped a fatal encounter last week when he landed in the cross-fire of American bird hunters, while en route to Ventersburg. One of the shotgun pellets narrowly missed his head. He was shocked and startled when the vehicle he was travelling in was rocked by a loud bang. Ernest stopped thinking that perhaps the vehicle had lost a tyre. The tyres were fine, but he saw three men, dressed in camouflage clothing, carrying rifles across the road. Ernest approached them, and one of the men fled. The two remaining men immediately started apologising. He realized that the SPCA vehicle had actually been hit by the pellets fired from a double- barrel shotgun. This was a huge shock to Ernest, and he asked the men why they were shooting on a public road. “They told me that they were shooting birds in the sunflower field across the road,” says Ernest. The hunters work for a company which is contracted to shoot and kill birds, seen as pests to the crops. These birds will include all pigeons, water birds and guinea fowl. The hunters come from America. Thea Smit, Virginia SPCA chairman, says the owner of the company confirmed that the hunters were all excellent shots and shoot the birds in flight. “We are concerned as to how
