Return of ‘The R5 meals’ The Shoprite group has re-introduced its R5 deli meals having subsidised more than 150 million meals since inception in 2017. The group has further subsidised its 600g in-house baked bread which remains at R4.99 since 2016. Stores sold 63 million R4.99 bread loaves in the past financial year. The group says with the effects of the pandemic on unemployment, increased hunger and food insecurity plagues vulnerable communities. The meal is the group’s effort to make sure that someone with just R5 in their pocket can afford to eat a hot meal.

FESTIVE SEASON CRIME: WATCH GROUPS NEED ACTIVE MEMBERS

Shortage of patrollers W

ith the festive season approaching, neighbourhood watches in Goodwood have called on willing residents to join the watch group to assist in fighting crime.

According to Glenwood NHW chair, James Ellis, they don’t have enough patrollers to monitor the area on a constant basis.

“We do have the occasional opportunistic incidents of crime, along with theft out of motor vehicles. Basically, all crimes and related issues are a challenge not only to the neighbourhood watches, but every resident.

We are encouraging our residents to please join our neighbourhood watch, alternatively start a blockwatch, which we will certainly support and assist all the way.”

Ellis says there has been no increase or decline in crime in the area.

“The situation in Glenwood is reasonably under control, directly as a result of constant patrolling in the area by our patrollers.

I strongly believe that visibility plays a big role in fighting crime. This is now during day and night.

“Our patrollers need to be thanked and congratulated for all the effort and time that is put in. We cannot exclude our residents as they themselves play a vital role in having a safe area. These people are also our eyes and ears, and without them the task of fighting crime could have been more difficult.

The same feeling is towards our armed response companies who are in support of combating crime too.”

Ellis also noted that there continues to be an increase in vagrants moving into Goodwood in its entirety.

“This has become a great problem and as in the case of the bigger Goodwood, we do have an increase of vagrants and specially

under the bridge of Jakes Gerwel Drive and on the side of Fort Ikapa, next to the railway line, where two camps have been set up right along the railway line up to Monte Vista Station. These areas are basically the borderline of Glenwood.”

He notes that not all vagrants are involved in criminal activity, but for those who are Ellis says they lure other unwanted elements into the area whereby they also wheel and deal in certain stolen goods, including drugs.

“The abuse of alcohol is extreme and leads to a substantial amount of fighting, verbal abuse and noise pollution. We have been fortunate and have managed to keep these vagrants from sleeping or setting up shelters in between the residential areas. From the side of the Glenwood Neighbourhood Watch, we have requested the intervention by the Cities Displaced Unit, law enforcement and other entities, but due to the land belonging

to the national government, this seems to be a problem for these entities to intervene and have these vagrants removed.

“Also, we do have some residents still giving food parcels, clothing and extras to these vagrants feeling that they are helping these people. My request is, and I believe more people feel the same, to give responsibly and we do have organisations earmarked by the City of Cape Town who can be supported.”

Ellis advises that with the holiday season approaching residents should be more vigilant. “We are furthermore encouraging and reminding our residents that the festive season is upon us, so please be aware of your surroundings, vehicles parked outside and don’t leave valuables visible in vehicles.

Make sure your alarms are tested by your armed response companies. We are here for each other, so please let’s be the eyes and ears for all in our area.”

Regsman verskyn in hof NIELEN DE KLERK @nielendk

N

ege jaar gelede was Verna Cloete (42) taamlik sorgvry.

Sy’t gewerk as ’n trokbestuurder, het ’n inkomste verdien en het uitgesien na ’n moontlike sakegeleentheid saam met haar man in die toekoms.

Maar op ’n dag in Februarie het haar lewe verander toe ’n man glo oor haar voet gery het.

In daardie stadium het Cloete se man, Eugene, nie gewerk nie en sy kon nie geld verdien as sy nie kon bestuur nie.

Sy’t haar werk en mediese fonds verloor.

Maar, wonder bo wonder, het sy nie haar veggees verloor nie.

Die man wat glo oor haar voet gery het is die landdros Gerald Hattingh, wat in die Bellville-omgewing werk.

Hoewel Verna dadelik ’n saak teen Hattingh gemaak het, het sy saak nooit tot ’n beslissing gekom nie en die nasionale vervolgingsgesag (NVG) het later besluit om nie voort te gaan met die saak nie.

Verna en Eugene, wat in Delft bly, het op verskeie maniere hulp probeer soek. Hulle was verskeie kere by die openbare vervolger, die media, die polisie en by staatsaanklaers, maar Hattingh se saak het halsstarrig gesloer.

Uit desperaatheid het hulle toe besluit om AfriForum se private vervolgingseenheid te kontak.

“Ek het vir Verna gesê: kom ons try vir

Gerrie (Nel).” Nel, wat vir die vervolgingseenheid werk, is bekend vir sy werk in die Oscar Pistorious-saak.

Binne twee dae het die eenheid hulle gekontak. Kort voor lank het die NVG die Cloetes gekontak en gesê hulle het wel besluit om met die saak voort te gaan.

Vir die eerste keer het dit gevoel of die reg aan hul kant was.

Hattingh is met ’n lasbrief bedien en gaan vandag in die hof verskyn. Dit kom nadat dit met ’n vorige hofverskyning uitgestel is omdat die landdros vir Hattingh ken en homself van die saak verskoon het.

“Ek het gevoel die wet is nie vir die klein man nie,” sê Verna.

“Ons moes na Gerrie toe gegaan het (omdat) die wet ons in die rug gesteek het.”

Goodwood NHW chair Leona van Wyk says the “silly season” always brings along extra opportunists.

“We need to understand that there are a few (maximum 25) truly homeless people in Goodwood that can be called vagrants. The rest are opportunists looking for vulnerable people to rob and con. Goodwood does see an increase over December and the fact that it is so central does contribute. It is nearly a “junction” to many areas. The fact that many have lost their jobs also contribute to a rise in criminal activities. We also have a number of residents with bleeding hearts who continue to feed and clothe these people

and they have no reason to want to leave if they are well cared for here.

“There has been a rise since lockdown and we need a closer partnership and communication with police to combat an even further increase.”

Clinton Roux, chair of the Tygerdal NHW, says while there hasn’t been an increase in vagrancy in the area, vagrants informed them that they keep returning due to the giving nature of residents.

“The community keep giving and the vagrancy keeps growing. We have heard first hand from vagrants that they come to Goodwood because they get things here.”

The Durbanville police warned residents of an increase in internet fraud cases in Durbanville area.

In one case a Durbanville resident bought three kittens to the value of R102 000 over the internet, and never received his kittens, says Capt Marchell Rhode, spokesperson for Durbanville police. “A case of fraud is being investigated by the police,” he says.

“Before doing any business on the internet, make sure the seller’s credentials and history is legitimate. Vehicles are also being sold or bought over the internet and the suspects are using Uber drivers to fetch the ve-

hicles. This makes it difficult to trace or arrest the suspects. People should be wary if a transaction seems dodgy,” he says.

Rhode warns people against doing business over the internet to refrain from paying money to unknown people before they have not checked the person’s credentials.

He says people must go into sellers’ profiles on online sites such as Gumtree.

“People must also check at their own bank if the funds were actually paid into their account, regardless if they have received a notice of payment by SMS. Rather wait two or three days and make sure the payment shows in your account before you hand over the item,” he warns.

Loop lig vir ‘werkers’ wat steel CARINA ROUX Reeds in Januarie vanjaar het die Stad Kaapstad gewaarsku teen skelms wat met die nodige kleredrag en identifikasie hulself voordoen as munisipale werkers, wat elektriese infrastruktuur moet nagaan om sodoende toegang tot huise te verkry.

Op Woensdag 11 November het ’n egpaar in St. Dumas van die jongste slagoffers geword.

Die vrou vertel sy en haar man (albei in die sestig) is eintlik baie veiligheidsbewus. Haar man was buite besig toe die twee mans opgedaag het.

Albei het ‘‘sekuriteitsbaadjies’’ aangehad en bandjies met identifikasie om hul nekke, asook tweerigtingradio’s en ’n knipbord met papiere, sê die vrou.

Die een man het oor die radio gesels om kamtig te bevestig of dit nou die regte huisnommer is waar hulle moet wees.

Hul storie was oor die moontlikheid om ’n kragbesparing mee te bring en dat die aantal kragproppe en die skakelbord nagegaan moes word.

Die vrou sê die een man is saam met haar in na die skakelbord in die kombuis, terwyl haar man saam met die ander een van kamer tot kamer is om die kragproppe te tel.

Sy sê sy het heeltyd by die een in die kombuis gesit waar hy op die kas geklim het om bo by die skakelbord by te kom.

Sy het aanvanklik geen onraad vermoed nie. Wat haar later wel vreemd opgeval het, was dat die man vier keer genoem het dat die een skakelaar los is nadat haar man ook by die kombuis ingekom het.

Sy sê die een man het ’n rugsak gehad, maar hy het nie veel gepraat nie.

Op die ou end is albei baie skielik by die deur uit en dit sonder om te groet, sê die vrou.

Kort daarna het sy agtergekom haar selfoon, wat in die sitkamer op ’n bank gelê het, is weg.

Eers ’n paar dae later het sy ontdek dat verskeie dosies waarin juweliersware was, wat in ’n spieëlkas gebêre was, ook weg is.

“My man sê hy weet nie hoe die man dit reggekry het nie, want hy was dan omtrent heeltyd by hom.”

Die vrou vermoed dat toe die een man herhaaldelik verwys het na die skakelaar wat los is, dit ’n manier was om hul aandag af te trek.

Later daardie selfde dag het ’n vriendin van die vrou haar gewys op die brief in TygerBurger van James Carstens van Goodwood wat oor die skelms waarsku (“Thieving duo on the prowl”, 11/11).

Die vrou sê hulle gaan nou nooit weer enigiemand inlaat nie.

“Ons was seker te vriendelik en agterna is jy nou kwaad vir jouself.”

Terwyl die twee mans in hul huis was, is daar ’n paar keer oor die radio gesels en die een se foon het ook gelui, vertel sy.

Dit blyk alles deel te wees van die uitgeslape manier waarop die twee hul “rolle” as munisipale werkers vertolk.

“Ons is ongeskonde en dis die belangrikste,” sê die vrou, maar sy wil graag ander waarsku om bedag te wees op die skelms se truuks.

Volgens ’n verklaring van die Stad doen amptenare geen deur-tot-deur besoeke nie.

Die Stad gaan wel soms elektrisiteitsmeters na, maar sal ’n afspraak vooraf daarvoor met die inwoner bevestig.

Alle munisipale werkers moet ’n werkopdragnommer vir ’n spesifieke adres kan verskaf.

V Meld verdagte optrede by die Stad se bedroglyn by 0800 323 130 of by die polisie aan.

TYGERBURGER Goodwood 3

House break-in and theft suspects caught Two men, aged 27 and 36, were arrested for house breaking and theft shortly after they broke into a flat in Goodwood on Thursday 19 November.

Goodwood police spokesperson, Capt Waynne Theunis said Elsies River police officers assisted in the arrests.

“On Thursday 19 November at 01:20 officers of Elsies River police were driving in Hugo Street when they saw the two suspects with a Glory Mountain Bike. When the members approached the suspects, one of them fled on foot, but was apprehended. The two suspects could not account for the possession of the bicycle. While the officers were interrogating the suspects, a complainant stopped and accused the two of breaking into his Hugo Street flat and stealing his bicycle. He alleged that they bent open a gate to gain entrance to his flat,” said Theunis.

The duo appeared in the Goodwood magistrate’s court. . Police arrested a 21-year-old woman for robbery on Wednesday 18 November.

Theunis explained, “At about 18:00, Sgt Ralph Steyn and Sgt Andre Abrahams were doing patrols when a complainant stopped them to inform them of the whereabouts of a robbery suspect. The officers accompanied the complainant to McIntyre Street in Parow

Linda Schwartz opens up about being a victim of abuse.

Abuse victim shares journey TARRYN-LEIGH SOLOMONS @tarryns07

C

oming from an abusive background has moulded Ruyterwacht resident, Linda Schwartz, to share her story in the hope of inspiring others.

The 47-year-old endured abuse as a child and later experienced sexual and physical abuse in her adult relationships.

Schwartz says her journey has taught her to be a stronger woman. She explains that her abuse had put much strain on her mental health as she was often feeling depressed and even experienced suicidal thoughts.

“I have been a victim of abuse my whole life. I have experienced domestic abuse. It was very difficult for me to get through the stages of accepting what was happening to me. I couldn’t get over the fact that I was always getting hurt or attacked. I had to process this. I remember thinking it was all my fault, all the abuse. But through counselling I learnt it is not my fault. The abuse piled up as I never spoke about it. Domestic violence is to control another. It’s never suitable or healthy in any relationship.”

Her only encouragement was her three children who needed their mother.

“Women tend to feel fearful of the perpetrators when they’re in an abusive situation. I felt that I wanted to get away, but couldn’t at first. This was very difficult for me. I was very depressed, and I was at a stage of having suicidal thoughts, but I pushed through because I had to think about my children,” says Schwartz.

She sought help at Ruyterwacht Day Hospital in 2005, where she first opened up about her situation at home and her childhood abuse. At the time, Schwartz struggled with her mental health and was later admitted to Stikland Hospital after being diagnosed with depression.

“I received support at the clinic there.

The motivational speaker and groups there helped me a lot. I could talk about my hurt; I could share my feelings and my experiences. You need to get these feelings out of your system.”

During her time at Stikland, she became inspired and decided to leave her partner.

“Any kind of abuse is very damaging to one’s mental health and even the perpetrators too. You eventually have to get to a point where you forgive the person for the harm they’ve caused you. The journey of healing involves a lot of tears and a lot of sadness. While I have forgiven the perpetrators, I have never seen them since and prefer it that way,” says Schwartz.

She has since become a motivational speaker and supports the staff at Ruyterwacht Day Centre when they host mental health talks, particularly talks on abuse.

Schwartz has also completed a domestic violence course and regularly seeks ways to help other women, including young girls.

Her story has a happy ending as she says she was able to find love, a kind of love that she has never experienced.

“I’m in a much better space now and I’ve also been dating someone for three years.

He has shown me a lot of love, patience and has been very supportive during this journey. His parents and family are always very wonderful and I’m blessed,” she says.

Schwartz has also expressed her gratitude for Ruyterwacht Day Centre mental health nurse, Sandra Baloyi, who has been a big support for the mother of three.

Juanita Arendse, director for health services in the northern Tygerberg area, says communities can access support from their local primary healthcare facilities. “During the Covid-19 peak, many people put healthcare activities on hold. It is important that we return to healthcare safely and look after our general physical and mental well-being. Where possible, we urge people to use the safer option, such as using the appointment line at your local day hospital to see a doctor or nurse if you need any healthcare support.”

Those in need can access numerous national helplines such as Lifeline 0861 322 322, the Suicide Crisis Line 0800 567 567 and the services offered by the South African Depression and Anxiety Group 011 234 4837.

where he pointed out the suspect. The officers arrested the suspect.

“According to available information, the complainant was robbed on Thursday 12 November at about 19:15. The complainant walked to his vehicle in Voortrekker Road when he was attacked from behind by an unknown man. The man grabbed his Samsung cellphone and passed it to the female suspect.

They managed to flee on foot.”

The suspect appeared in the Goodwood magistrate’s court on a charge of robbery. . On Tuesday 17 November a 46-year-old man appeared in the Goodwood magistrate’s court on a charge of theft from motor vehicle.

Theunis said it’s alleged that on Sunday 15 November at 09:10, the owner of a Nissan NP 200 heard a noise in his vehicle which was parked in Oxford Street.

“When he investigated he found the suspect in the back under the canopy. The owner locked the canopy and alerted the police.

When the members arrived on the scene the suspect was still locked inside the canopy. “On further investigation the members found that the suspect was busy unscrewing the nuts of the canopy in an attempt to steal the canopy from the vehicle. The tools he used to unscrew the nuts were found in his possession. He was arrested.”

Summer safety tips for parents T

he summer holidays are around the corner and with the weather getting warmer, many families may be heading outdoors - whether at home or elsewhere - to enjoy activities together.

Unfortunately, many common summer activities end up in accidents within a few seconds, which may have a lasting traumatic impact on all.

“Most accidents that put children in the emergency room during the summer and festive season are preventable,” says leading paediatrician at Cape Gate Mediclinic and Paed-IQ BabyLine CEO, Dr Iqbal Karbanee.

“Unfortunately, many common and fun family activities during the summer months can quickly take a turn for the worse and end in injury. Others can have lasting and traumatic consequences for families,” says Karbanee.

Child safety at home Examples of such activities include a trip to the beach or the local swimming pool, a home-based braai where there is a wood fire or paraffin burner that can fall over and cause a fire, or even bicycle or scooter rides.

The ChildSafe Initiative in South Africa suggests that 80% of child injuries occur in or around the home and while many children are hospitalised, hundreds more end up visiting the emergency room and thousands more go to clinics and doctors.

Karbanee says it is difficult to count the cost of treating preventable accidents in children, whether as once-off hospital visits or the longer-term costs of prolonged treatment and rehabilitation. It can cost up to as much as R500 000 when skin grafting or plastic surgery is required, which can be as a result of a burn.

The Child Gauge Report 2019 suggests that more than 8 000 children die every year as a result of injuries. About 5 000 of these are accidental or unintentional, with leading causes being road traffic injuries, burns and drownings. Globally, it is estimated that one million families lose a child to a preventable injury every year.

“Reducing the number of preventable accidents is therefore a healthcare priority that should be observed by all parents and caregivers, especially during the summer months,” says Karbanee.

Trampolines are great ways for kids to use up excess energy, but they are simply too dangerous. Children’s bones are still developing and experiencing an injury whether through a broken or fractured bone can set them back developmentally.

Serious injuries related to the brain or spine can occur. If you are gifting your child or children a trampoline over the festive season, or if you already have a trampoline at home, there are ways you can lessen the risks associated with the equipment. Always make sure there is adult supervision and only one child at a time should be on the trampoline. No children under the age of six should be allowed to jump and it is the parent’s responsibility to ensure that strict rules are enforced.

if these places are busy. Make sure you and your child have a plan should they become separated from you and how they can look for help. Older children should be able to memorise your cell number.

Drownings are known as silent killers because children are unable to shout for help and they are among the most common preventable accidents that can happen in seconds.

A drowning can happen in a few centimetres of water. Life jackets are a must if you want to boat, canoe, or jet ski with your kids or even just spend time near a body of water. Never leave a child unattended near water and consider hiring a lifeguard to keep watch over the kids in the pool if you are having a gathering or party with several children in attendance.

Dog bites are a major cause of preventable traumatic injury in children. Too often what starts as a peaceful or exciting family day out turns into a horror story involving a dog attack, with the victims mostly being children who can sustain severe injuries.

Teach your children to not go near a dog who is off leash or without a muzzle, and to not put their face close to the dog’s, even if it is a trusted family pet. If the dog runs up to the child or a family on the beach or elsewhere, children should not reach out to pat the dog, even if it looks cute.

Wood fires are common in South Africa during summer. They are dangerous to children if unattended, as children are nat-

urally curious and may want to see what happens when they throw things into the fire. The smoke also poses a danger to young respiratory systems as they are still developing, even more so if the children suffer from asthma or allergies. Put fireplace tools and accessories out of a young child’s reach and keep a fire extinguisher on hand. It may seem obvious, but never leave children unsupervised with candles, paraffin burners or outdoor wood fires. If an accident does happen, never apply any butter or other food onto a burn.

Outdoor activities Playgrounds and parks are good to get kids to play outdoors, but be careful of hot slides and poorly maintained equipment that may have rusty nails or sharp hooks.

Hot equipment can burn bodies and sharp objects can tear skin, which may require tetanus shots.

Also remember to put sunscreen on your child of no less than SPF 50 when spending time outdoors.

Bikes, scooters, skateboards and other wheelie toys are fun for children but should not be used near moving traffic.

Traffic-related accidents are among the highest preventable accidents for children.

Protective gear like helmets or shin or knee pads can go a long way in preventing injuries, whether only scrapes and bruises or more severe.

“And if the worst happens, you don’t know what to do and you are struggling to assess whether a doctor’s visit or a trip to the emergency room is indeed necessary, it may be a good idea to make use of a telephonic advice service with trained nurses that can quickly and cheaply help you assess the severity of the situation,” concludes Karbanee.

‘Look out for these criminals’ NIELEN DE KLERK @nielendk

T

he safest way of spending money during Black Friday is by shopping online, a security expert says.

Hennie Groenewald, spokesperson of Bassett Security, says this would help curb the spread of Covid-19.

Yet, there’s definitely been a rise in the families and shoppers who are out and about, says Charnel Hattingh, head of marketing and communications for Fidelity Services Group.

Unfortunately the rejuvenation of in-person shopping also means that criminals have returned, waiting for easy pickings.

wald emphasises this means physically feeling the car’s door with your hand to see whether it is locked. . It is easy to follow someone who is going to deposit or withdraw a large amount of money at a bank in a mall without them realising it. . Hattingh says shoppers are generally careless with their valuables – “handbags hung over chairs at restaurants, cellphones on the table, etc. A criminal will not hesitate to grab your belongings and be gone in a matter of seconds”. Groenewald says shoppers should also keep valuables in cars out of sight, or better, out of the car. Don’t walk with your cellphone in your bag or in your pocket, he adds. . According to Hattingh most people don’t notice what’s going on around them. “Always take note of your surroundings, especially when you are walking back to your car.

Check where the car guard or a security guard is and signal for help immediately if you are suddenly approached by a stranger.” Groenwald says to keep an eye out for any suspicious vehicles parked close to your car – this can help prevent a robbery. . Another disturbing trend is when criminals dress up as beggars or hawkers as people are used to them, Hattingh explains.

“Criminals are masters of disguise and will use any means possible to get what they want. Do not speak to strangers and if anyone is making you feel uncomfortable, go to a security guard and report them.” . Masks are a problem. As everyone, including criminals, need to wear a mask, be extra cautious about the people around you. . Groenewald says if you need to go out, try to do all your shopping at once and don’t spread out your shopping spree over multiple days and trips. This will reduce the number of times you may encounter criminals.

Hattingh says: “Remain on guard at all times while shopping, be aware of who is around you and especially keep your children and valuables safe.”

“A criminal will not hesitate to grab your belongings and be gone in a matter of seconds.

Don’t walk with your cellphone in your bag or in your pocket.

Always take note of your surroundings, especially when you are walking back to your car.”

Reasons and tips Hattingh and Groenewald give the following reasons for increased crime and tips to prevent it: . “There are a lot of people in one area which makes it easy for them to disappear into the crowd once they have stolen your handbag or shoplifted,” Hattingh says. . “Women with children are often distracted,” Hattingh says. Once they turn away from their trolleys with their handbags, albeit for only two seconds, a criminal has enough time to pounce. . Criminals blend in. “Women use children to steal cellphones, handbags and the likes, especially in restaurants where they are ‘innocently’ waiting to be served,” Hattingh says. After committing the crime they easily join the busy crowd again and blend in. . There are many ATM machines where The “good Samaritans” who offer to help when the ATM is suddenly giving trouble are actually helping themselves to your bank card and pin. “Before you know it, thousands could be withdrawn from your account,” Hattingh says. . “Parking areas are large, offering criminals a chance to sit in a car and identify their next target without looking suspicious. This could be a woman alone or with children or an elderly person,” Hattingh says. . It is easy to sit in a car and remote jam cars. Always check your car is in fact locked before walking away.

Attempted murder on the up in WC DESIRÉE RORKE @dezzierore Attempted murder cases in the Western Cape have surged upwards with 9% with 1 097 cases between July and September 2020, according to the second quarterly crime statistics released by the South African Police Service.

The numbers contained are compared in percentile to the same quarter in the previous year.

Kraaifontein (59), Elsies River (39), Delft, (35) and Mfuleni (32) all feature in the national top 30 police precincts for this crime.

With 752 incidents, house robberies saw an increase of 8.4% with 58 cases more than in the same quarter last year. Again Kraaifontein (41), Delft (38) and Mfuleni (30) reached the top 30 list for this crime countrywide.

Truck hijackings too saw an increase of 33.3% with 12 more incidents bringing the total for the quarter to 48; and carjacking’s a

slight decrease of 3.3% with 838 incidents.

Delft (59) and Philippi East (59) were both listed in the top 30.

The murder rate saw a slight decline of 0.9% with 1 013 murders in the province.

Both Delft (57) and Kraaifontein (38) topped the red list, with a 31% decline in Delft, but a 58% increase in Kraaifontein. House robberies increased by 8.4% with 752 cases and break-ins declined by 10% with 2 578 cases.

Minister for community safety in the province Albert Fritz, said a five-year analysis shows that provincially murder cases increased by 25.7% (207) from 806 in 2016/17 to 1 013 in the second quarter of 2020/21 financial year whilst nationally it increased by 4.2% (207), from 4 900 in quarter 2 of 2016/17 to 5 107 for the same period.

However, there was a decrease in the last two years – owing largely to the Operation Lockdown in gang affected precincts in 2019 and the Covid lockdown in 2020.

Mutts show off ‘butts’ at market A

“Mutts with cute butts pa(w)rade” is being presented at the night market of the Durbanville Pet and Craft Market on Friday 4 December.

The market is held from 17:00 to 21:00 on the grounds of the Durbanville Presbyterian Church on the corner of Louw and Hafele streets (behind the police station, next to the fire station) in Durbanville.

This annual night market has been a tradition in Durbanville for the past 35 years.

The mutt parade will start at 18:00 just after registration. All participants will receive a certificate and prizes sponsored by Barking Mad Pet Products, Jock Dog foods, Roxy Living with Diabetes, Pixie Proof and crafters. Just after the parade, a fun auction will be held in aid of the charity organisati-

ons. Afro Beat Drumming Circle will be having drumming sessions throughout the evening. The Durbanville Craft Market is one of the oldest craft markets in the Cape and the only monthly market focused on animals and charities – all fees are applied towards charity. “Although we are not affiliated to the Durbanville Presbyterian Church, we are very grateful for being able to use their premises every month in exchange for donating all fees to use for their charity and welfare outreaches,” says Anni Theron, chairperson of the craft market committee.

There are seven animal charity organisations which are permanent members, having stalls at no charge at the market, to do fundraising for their respective organisations. This includes The Hope Foundation for

The prizewinner of the mutt parade at the market on 7 November was Frankie, here with Megan Bruiners, a volunteer of Imagine Animal Dreams in Joostenberg Vlakte, and a sponsor, Joss Terry of Barking Mad Pet Products.

Frankie is available for adoption.

Cats, Imagine Animal Dreams, Capetonians against Animal Abuse and Uitsig Animal Rescue Centre.

The Lucky Lucy Foundation will present microchipping at only R100 per pet. “In our craft section, only handmade crafts made from a home base qualify, giving visitors the opportunity to browse through unique gifts at the market. With the focus on pets and their well-being, we try to offer something different at every market for the benefit of pet owners. Unfortunately we are an outdoor market and events are dependent on weather,” she says. New crafters are welcome. Covid-19 precautions will be in place.

Eerste dokter van dié aard in Kaap D

eur die jare wat dr. Marlena du Toit as ginekoloog en verloskundige in Bellville gepraktiseer het, het sy duisende pasiënte ondersoek en suksesvol behandel vir ’n legio vrouekwale.

Tog het iets haar gepla: sy het nie ’n antwoord gehad vir die vroue wat probleme met hul seksuele gesondheid gehad het nie.

“Ná ’n lang soektog het ek die wonderlike veld van seksuele medisyne ontdek. Die probleem was dat dit nie beskore was vir die vroue in Suid-Afrika nie. In Europa en die VSA was die veld besig om te groei, maar in ons land was daar net ’n paar mense (meestal omstrede) wat in die openbaar oor hierdie taboe onderwerp gepraat het. Ginekoloë en uroloë praat veral nie oor seks en verwante onderwerpe nie,” sê Marlena.

Haar soektog het haar gelei na die Europese Skool van Seksuele Medisyne, wat slegs een keer per jaar oor ’n periode van tien dae in Hongarye aangebied word. “Dit was in 2018 en ek het gedink dit sal onmoontlik

wees om dit by te woon – dit sou ’n allemintige €2 400 (vandag byna R48 000) kos!

“Maar God se genade is groot en in Julie 2018 het ek ’n internasionale beurs gekry om die skool te gaan bywoon,” sê sy.

In November 2018 het sy, “skoolbankstyl”, in Boedapest klas gedraf en meer oor dié onderwerp geleer. Terug in SA het sy ’n jaar lank gevallestudies gedoen, wat sy by die Europese raad moes indien om vir die finale eksamen gekeur te word.

“Op 23 Januarie vanjaar het ek in die yskoue Praag die eksamen afgelê en op 4 Februarie gehoor dat ek geslaag het. Ek is nou geregistreer om te praktiseer in die veld van seksuele medisyne en is by die Europese raad geakkrediteer.”

Daar is tans slegs tien mense in die land wat met dié kwalifikasie kan spog, waarvan dr. Etienne Kok die bekendste een is.

Marlena is die eerste ginekoloog in die Wes-Kaap wat die veld van seksuele medisyne betree het.

Screening concerns at hospital RICHARD ROBERTS @richardjohn_rj

T

ygerberg Hospital confirmed that it was made aware of a complaint that screening for Covid-19 symptoms are apparently not conducted at one of its entrances.

TygerBurger recently received a complaint from a resident in Kraaifontein, informing the newspaper about the matter.

The resident, who wishes to remain anonymous, suffers from cancer and visits the hospital’s cancer unit at the Gene Louw Building regularly for check-ups. Her last visit was on Friday 6 October.

“I got there at 05:45 and at the entrance

there was nobody on duty to screen patients,” the resident says.

She brought this to the attention of some of the staff, but claims that it seemed no one was bothered by it. “How would they know if infected persons are entering the facility?

And with a warning of a second wave, is this not negligence on the part of the hospital?

Are cancer patients not also high risk? At all the other entrances temperatures are taken, but not at the cancer unit.”

The patient says she has also tried calling the hospital to lodge a complaint, but claims no one answers the phone.

Laticia Pienaar, hospital spokesperson, confirmed last week that the hospital had been made aware of the matter and ex-

plained the current procedures taken at the facility.

“At the peak of the pandemic, screening was done by staff members at the Gene Louw Building, but when the numbers were declining and visitation was still restricted, the staff members were withdrawn to go back to their clinical areas.

“The screening was left to be done by the security guards but there were challenges in that screening is not the core function of the security guard. We are in a process of securing the services of the volunteers to assist with screening at the entrances,” Pienaar says.

The 68-year-old patient says she is now wary of going for her next check-up on Tues-

day 1 December.

“I have breast cancer, as well as multiple myeloma so my immune system is heavily compromised. I do not know if anyone in authority has been made aware of this nonscreening,” the patient says.

Pienaar however explained that the current screening process for patients who visit the cancer facility is done on a booking system.

“When they arrive at the unit, they must be checked for the wearing of masks, and then screened for temperature and hand sanitiser applied at the main entrance. When they get to their specific clinics, they must be fully screened for temperature and symptoms by the clinical staff,” Pienaar explains.

Journalist bags VJOY for opinions Samantha Lee-Jacobs (28), a journalist at TygerBurger’s sister publication in the southern suburbs, People’s Post, has bagged the national award in the opinions category at the 2020 Vodacom Journalist of the Year awards (VJOY’s).

The awards ceremony was held virtually on Friday 20 November where Lee-Jacobs represented the Western Cape region after winning the regional opinion category award at the regional virtual awards ceremony on Wednesday 11 November.

The awards seek to recognise journalism excellence in the country across 12 categories.

In its 19th year, the competition received a record number of 1 300 entries.

Lee-Jacobs’s win was accredited to three columns published in both People’s Post (“Please just stop asking ‘when’ ”, “Breaking silence”) and TygerBurger (“Think twice before driving drunk”).

The judges’ citation is: “Entries in this category covered many issues, mainly political but also the economy, sports and even religion. Many of these entries – while being well-written – offered views that were common in society and did not bring anything fresh to the debate at either a national or provincial level. Our national winner displayed a skill taking seemingly small issues and relating them to some of society’s important concerns such as sexual assault, peer pressure and drunk driving.”

Lee-Jacobs says: “In writing these columns, I was able to share a bit of myself, my personal life and my own experiences with some of society’s social ills with our readers. This was also the first time I had ever spoken out about a personal encounter with sexual assault which empowered me to help others. As community journalists, we have a special role to play in connecting with readers, while sharing news and views that matter. Having won awards for telling people’s inspiring stories before, it was especially amazing and a great honour to be awarded for the vulnerability in sharing my own story.”

Thulani Magazi, People’s Post editor, praised Lee-Jacobs for the achievement.

“Well done, Sammy. This wonderful accomplishment is an excellent stamp of approval on what community journalism is all about. You have consistently showed and proved that community journalism is truly alive by regularly collecting awards,” says Magazi.

“Walking away with a national award against some of the country’s finest writers and newspapers is a huge achievement. We are truly proud of your achievement as it not only puts your name on the South African media landscape, but our beloved People’s Post too. Congratulations! Continue doing what you do best and love most.”

Brackenfell violence, an issue for serious deliberation Any cause, no matter how worthy, will be destroyed if addressed by the EFF because of their proclivity for mayhem and violence.

This protest, about a private function for matric learners from Brackenfell high school, on racial and economic grounds, should have been dealt with by people with sober minds and a clear vision for our future, and not by a bunch of political opportunists.

Gatherings organised on racial and socio-economic lines merely perpetuate the myth of racial superiority and looks disparagingly on people, who are not economically well off. The fact that the function was organised for about only 20% white students of the matric class suggests that people of colour were excluded along with whites who could not afford the function. This decision by the parents to organise a

function on racial and economic grounds is a shame because it will make children who were excluded feel like outcasts. This myopic decision will have a damaging impact on the matric class of 2020 in Brackenfell High. It will be a year that they wouldn’t want to remember.

The ideal would have been for all the learners, regardless of race or socio-economic status, to celebrate together. The violence that erupted in front of the school is lamentable because, firstly, it must have affected the learners, who were busy writing their exams and because they were not entirely responsible for organising the function; secondly, the violence ignored an issue that needed the attention of every thinking citizen that desires to live in a truly non-racial and nondiscriminatory society. The issue, as I understand it, is that a group of parents

organised a private celebration for matriculants, outside the school grounds on racial lines and invited the educators to the function, without any consideration for the feelings of the learners that were excluded, regardless of their colour.

The response from the school was that they had nothing to do with organising the function, so they felt exonerated by the racial tone of such a gathering.

The MEC for education, Debbie Schaeffer, came out in defence of the educators, who attended the function because she felt that the educators were unaware that the celebration was based on racial lines. This defence is utterly cras, unless the educators were totally blind.

Such a response from the MEC could only be explained either on her ignorance about the impact such racial gatherings will have on the

Fisantekraal neglected I am a community keeper in Fisantekraal and my main focus is service delivery and crime prevention.

Since 2015 I am the moderator and administrator of the Facebook page, Greenville Fisantekraal Community, and a WhatsApp crime prevention group. My daily tasks and interaction with my community did not start yesterday as I have been a police officer for 18 years and know this community since the 90s and uphold the safety of my neighbours.

During this time I have noticed a lack of services and law enforcement agencies in and around my community.

Likewise, people always reach out to social media to raise their concerns and as a fellow member I have tried my utmost to assist them.

During lockdown I have noticed the flooding of requests for assistance with Covid-19, Sassa grants, Eskom, police misconduct, City of Cape Town water-related sewerage problems, potholes and general enquiries. I always do proper research and give feedback.

We have been targeted with a flood of crime related incidents such as murder, house robbery, armed robbery, contact crimes and even a case in which the mutilated body of a woman was found.

Just a month ago, Fisantekraal was pointed out as the area with the highest crime rate in Durbanville in TygerBurger.

Our people get robbed daily en route to their workplaces.

The City’s electricity department refuses to render

minds of young and impressionable learners when they grow up to be adults or that she sees nothing wrong in racial gatherings. On the other hand, she could be pandering to the salivating appetite of her racist followers. If she is guilty of any of the above, she should resign.

The MEC, the educators who attended and the school must understand one thing, and that is: children are not born racist, it is ingrained into them from their bigoted and racist parents at home. The question that should be on the top of everyone’s mind is: if children of all colours learn and play together, as part of the school’s and department of education’s creed, why did they have a celebration on racial and socio-economic lines? This question must lay heavily on the minds of children of colour, as well as their parents.

EV RAPITI

Kompleks lei met herwinning service to this community and some of the streets are dark and without proper lighting. Since early lockdown I have been sending almost 60 emails without any progress.

How is this possible? People are attacked and they give feedback such as that we as a community must get our act together. Must they use violence?

Almost 50% of the streetlights are not working.

In phase 3 (of Greenville) the new house owners move in without any streetlights.

Eskom took almost two weeks to connect household meterboxes to their power supply. Water and sanitation are poorly attended to. Is Fisantekraal another lost city?

INVITATION TO COMMENT AND REGISTER NOTICE OF A BASIC ASSESSMENT PROCESS FOR THE PROPOSED INSTALLATION OF UNDERGROUND FUEL STORAGE TANKS AT THE EXISTING CITY OF CAPE TOWN NDABENI FLEET SERVICES, CAPE TOWN, WESTERN CAPE PROVINCE Notice of Public Participation Process is hereby given in terms of Regulation 41, published in Government Notice R982 of December 2014, promulgated under the National Environmental Management Act No. 107 of 1998 (NEMA) (as amended), that the City of Cape Town (CoCT hereafter) intends to apply for Environmental Authorisation for the installation of underground fuel storage tanks at the existing Ndabeni Fleet Services facility. The proposed expansion will consist of underground fuel storage tanks with a storage capacity of approximately 92 cubic metres. The proposed additional underground fuel storage facilities are proposed to be constructed on Erf 102627.

The site central co-ordinates of the proposed underground tanks are approximately 33°55'54.82"S and 18°29’24.88”E. The proposed expansion will consist of 4 x 23m³ or 3 x 29m³ (in excess of 80 m³) underground fuel storage tanks.The current storage capacity of the 3 X 14 m³ underground storage tanks have a capacity of 42 m³.The motivation for the expansion of the fuel storage capacity is to have sufficient fuel onsite to compensate for possible capacity constraints caused by offsite electricity outages or refinery supply disruptions.The expansion will enable the existing facility to operate without interruptions.

The proposed development will trigger Activity 51 of Listing Notice 1 as per the NEMA EIA Regulations 2014, as amended. In terms of the NEMA EIA Regulations, 2014, as amended, all Interested and Affected Parties (I&APs) must be provided with an opportunity to participate in the Basic Assessment Process. The Draft Basic Assessment Report (DBAR) will be made available for public review and all registered I&APs will be informed of the availability of this document. The registered I&APs will be given the legislated 30-day period to provide comments on the report.

All Interested and Affected Parties are provided with an opportunity to participate in the Basic Assessment Process. All parties who wish to participate in the process by commenting, registering as I&APs or obtaining more information on the proposed project or a link to download the DBAR can contact Dirk Prinsloo on Tel: 021 462 6047, Fax: 011 805 1950, E-mail: environment@gaenvironment.com or dirkp@gaenvironment.com or Post: P.O Box 6723 Halfway House 1685.

Suidooster-sepie skenk ’n miljoen K

ykNET se gewilde sepie Suidooster het op sy vyfde verjaarsdag, Maandag 16 November, ’n groot skenking aan die Rooikruis-kinderhospitaaltrust gemaak.

Die waarde van dié skenking is sowat R1 miljoen en bestaan uit ’n donasie van R50 000 kontant, die vervaardiging van ’n TV-advertensie, R500 000 se advertensielugtyd op die kykNET-kanale en blootstelling in episodes van die sepie om bewusmaking te skep van die Kinderhospitaaltrust se fondsinsamelingsprojekte.

Die oorhandiging van die skenking aan die trust, wat die fondsinsamelingsorganisasie van die befaamde Rooikruis-kinderhospitaal in Kaapstad is, het by Suidooster se ateljees plaasgevind.

Jawaahier Petersen (Kaashifa in Suidooster) het die saadjie geplant dat Suidooster by die doen en late van die Kinderhospitaaltrust betrokke moet raak. Sy is reeds een

van hul ambassadeurs en is self daar as ’n kind behandel.

Volgens Wilmer Müller, Suidooster se publisiteitsbestuurder, is dit nog altyd belangrik vir die sepie om ook terug te gee.

“Ons mantra by Suidooster is dat ons nie net mense se lewe met kykgenot wil verryk nie, maar ook op ander maniere soos deur ons harte oop te maak. Daarom het ons ook besluit om hande met die Kinderhospitaaltrust te vat,” sê hy.

“Dus, toe ons aan die begin van die jaar koppe bymekaar gesit het om ons vyfde verjaarsdag te beplan, was dit vir ons voor die hand liggend om in plaas van ’n glanspartytjie te reël, dit eerder te vier deur ’n verskil iewers te help maak.”

Chantel Cooper, uitvoerende hoof van die Kinderhospitaaltrust, sê dit is ’n voorreg om in vennootskap te wees met donateurs, soos Suidooster en kykNET, wat vir kinders omgee.

In support of World Prematurity Awareness Month in November, neonatal wards at Tygerberg Hospital will be draped in purple for premature babies, or preemies, this month.

The colour purple represents sensitivity and exceptionality, which is fitting for this year’s World Prematurity Day celebrated on 17 November. This year’s theme is “Together for babies born too soon – caring for the future.” The idea of World Prematurity Day was born on 17 November 2008 when proud parents welcomed their healthy baby girl into the world after having lost triplets due to pre-term birth. According to the World Health Organisation (WHO) one out of 10 babies is born prematurely.

“Preemies have not grown and developed as much as they should have before birth.

A baby born three weeks or more before the due date is called premature. It can happen to everyone, irrespective of where we live, our culture or socioeconomic status,” a hospital statement reads. Preemie Day seeks to raise awareness of the challenges and burden of preterm birth globally. Many preemies face serious lifelong health challenges.

“It is also a time to reflect on the amazing advances that have been made to improve the outcomes of these tiny human beings and to celebrate the healthcare workers and parents that care for them. These little ones need loads of love and support and World Prematurity Day is a chance to show it,” the statement reads.

Concerns around seismic activity KAILIN DANIELS @k10daniels

E

veryone went into panic mode last week after being hit by a slight tremor - the third earthquake in less than two months.

The Southern African Faith Communities’ Environment Institute (Safcei) and the Koeberg Alert Alliance have raised questions around the seismic activity on the Milnerton fault line.

According to them, the increase in seismic activity on the Milnerton fault line should be a major cause for alarm around the risks to the Koeberg Nuclear Power Plant, especially since the news that Eskom has plans to extend the life of the plant by another 20 years past its original lifespan.

“Last month, we raised our concerns when the first two earthquakes were brushed off by Eskom as no cause for alarm.

But now, with a third and more intense earthquake, South Africans need to be aware of the risks associated with an aging nuclear plant so close to a fault zone and densely populated areas,” Koeberg Alert Alliance’s Peter Becker says.

The Council for Geosciences issued a ten-

der in October for a study of the seismic risks at the Koeberg site.

“It seems we are not alone in our concerns about how safe Koeberg is from earthquakes. Clearly, the Council for Geosciences also sees a need for more research into this risk,” says Becker.

According to a statement released by Safcei, Koeberg was built during the late 1970s with a design life of forty years. It began operating in 1984 and is scheduled for shut down in July 2024.

“It was the first nuclear plant built with earthquake protection in the foundations in the form of a concrete ‘raft’ resting on neoprene rubber pads. Later designs include horizontal fail safe buffers, but this was not done for Koeberg. That means that if the rubber pads do not perform as expected, or if there is an unexpectedly powerful earthquake, it could result in the foundation cracking. One question as Eskom plans to extend the life of Koeberg is whether the neoprene pads will last for another twenty years in a marine environment?” the statement reads.

Becker adds that an unexpected earthquake can cause a nuclear reactor meltdown. “Why should Capetonians live with

the fear of that happening? Koeberg contributes so little to the electricity generated in South Africa that it is not worth the risk of keeping it running. Keeping it running for twenty years beyond its designed lifetime would be playing Russian Roulette,” he says.

Safcei’s executive director, Francesca de Gasparis, raised some questions around the safety of people living close to the plant.

“Has Eskom considered what will happen if we are hit by a massive earthquake on this existing earthquake fault, so close to our only nuclear power plant?

“In a worst-case scenario, the Koeberg Evacuation plan would have to be implemented, and tens of thousands of people, possibly millions of people, would need to be evacuated. And since radioactive contamination can make an area uninhabitable for hundreds of years, where would all these people find housing? Or schools for their children? Will there be enough services or jobs there, to cater for these new inhabitants? These are important questions which should be addressed in the open, with sufficient reliable evidence available for public scrutiny,” adds De Gasparis.

However, Eskom released a statement saying that the Koeberg Nuclear Power Station

continues to operate safely after seismic activity.

“Eskom wishes to assure the public that there are no safety concerns with regards to the Koeberg power station, which was designed to withstand a magnitude 7 earthquake. In terms of the Richter scale, the amplitude of a tremor of 3.4 is much less than 0.1% of what Koeberg was designed to safely withstand. Both nuclear reactors at Koeberg were built on seismic bearings, which act as shock-absorbers to reduce the transferral of ground movement to the plant structures during a seismic event,” the statement reads.

Other safety measures to improve the resilience of the facility have been implemented over the years emanating from lessons from recent nuclear events elsewhere, Eskom says.

Eskom adds that the power plant continued to operate as normal, with only a minor spike in vibrations on the turbine-driven feedwater pumps on both units. “The station’s earthquake instrumentation system alarms were not activated as the impact did not exceed the plant threshold, confirming that the tremor was well below the power plant’s design limits,” Eskom says.

Eskom warns public against electricity voucher scams Eskom has been inundated with requests to conduct investigations into scams that purport to sell “cheap electricity” vouchers.

This scam is perpetrated through promotions being advertised on social media sites on Facebook and Twitter and WhatsApp. According to a statement released by Eskom last week, these unscrupulous individuals dupe people into paying for this “cheap electricity” through the use of electronic

funds transfers such as e-wallet and money market.

Thereafter the scammers disappear and leave the customers destitute and out of pocket.

“Eskom is working with several law enforcement agencies to trace and prosecute these unscrupulous individuals. We want to urge the members of the public not to fall prey to these crooks, but to report these acts

of fraud to the police without delay,” said Advocate Karen Pillay, Eskom’s general manager for security.

Eskom has urged members of the public not to fall prey to these crooks.

“Co-operation with the law enforcement agencies has already resulted in some arrests and prosecutions are ongoing in the Eastern Cape and in Mpumalanga provinces.

VALID DATE 25 NOVEMBER TILL 12 DECEMBER 2020

“We urge anyone who comes across this criminality to report these acts of fraud to the police,” the statement reads.

Eskom would like to caution customers to refrain from engaging in such acts, and to purchase their prepaid electricity vouchers from the registered Eskom vendors.

KILLARNEY: KARTING TITLES TO BE DECIDED

All geared up for finalé I

n spite of lockdown stealing a significant amount of its season, the Rotax Max Western Province Karting Championship will reach seven rounds out of the initially planned eight at Killarney’s season finale on Saturday 28 November.

Among this year’s classes there will be a mere formality after a few standout performances through the season.

Others will, however, go right down to the line.

Among the latter, the baby Bambinos arrive at Killarney with little Aiden Beaumont all of three points clear of young Kai van Rensburg in the title chase.

So that one can go either way, considering there’s a three-point difference between a race win and a second. And there are three races on Saturday.

It’s just as close between Sebastiano Human and Siyabonga Ntuli for third, and Liam Wharton and Michael Danks for fifth too.

Stepping up to u.11 Micro Max, Reese Koorzen already has one hand on that championship, but its tight for second. Joshua Smit holds an eleven point advantage over

Jordan Wadeley.

African Open winner Keagan Beaumont will be the kid to watch though — the African Open winner has come on strong and will be out to secure the title fourth over Dale Hobbs and Sabelo Ntuli.

It would appear that Reza Levy and Ethan Deacon need to do something silly to squander their u.13 Mini-Max 1-2.

But on closer inspection, third placed Joaquin de Oliveira is a clear danger man.

He missed the first two races, so will not have to drop any of his results and all his points will count. His rivals must still drop results so that brings de Oliveira into striking distance. Joshua Smit, Jude Stuart and Jordan Wadeley will also be in that chase.

Kyle Visser has all but wrapped up the WP u.15 Junior Max title.

The fight there is for second between brothers Andre and Kyle le Riche and Matthew Wadeley. Ethan Stier and Troy Dolinschek are danger men there as they too, do not drop any points after missing championship rounds. Senior Max however promises to be a thriller.

Aiden Beaumont (right) is three points clear of young Kai van Rensburg going into the final round of action for the year.
