FEMICIDE: BRING BACK DEATH PENALTY

‘Am I next?’

early 200 men and women gathered in front of the Parow Civic Centre last week to protest against the ongoing attacks and murders on women in South Africa.

The peaceful gathering started at 09:00 in front of the centre’s entrance in Voortrekker Road.

Franchesca Walker, councillor for ward 26, told TygerBurger she was approached by

the organisers of the mass march held in Cape Town to conduct a similar event in Parow. “I arranged for a group of people and we got together here today (Thursday 5 September) to show our support. We had a good response from the passing motorists and pedestrians,” she says.

“Am I next?” and “Bring back the death penalty!” were some of the demands written on the placards waved around by protesters.

Others read, “Stop the violence against women and children, enough is enough” and “We will not be silenced, do not look away.”

Carol Williams, a member of the Leonsdale Walking Bus project who also supported the protest, says as a community they are tired of the abuse perpetrated against women.

“We are mothers, grandmothers and daughters and feel that it is an injustice that is being committed against us.

“We are here to stand up against abuse against women and children,” she says.

About 30 of their members, mostly women, attended the protest.

Anne Williams, a fellow member, says that they want the death penalty to be rein-

stated, while Delicia Africa, another member, demanded that the police offer women and children more support and protection.

Rachel Casper, also a Walking Bus member and a mother of a 10-year-old boy, says, says: “A crime will be committed today, but the next day the criminals will be out of jail.

We are sick and tired that our children have to witness these things,” The group was later joined by the Tehillah Community Collaborative, a centre which provides 24-hour home care service.

Thousands gather to say ‘enough is enough’ BENITA JAFTHA @benitajaftha2

E

motions ran high outside Parliament last week when thousands of people gathered to protest against gender-based violence. This followed the murder of Uyinene Mrwetyana, Jesse Hess, Janika Mallo, Meghan Cremer, Leighandre Jegels and Lynette Volschenk in the span of a couple of weeks.

“Today our hearts are bleeding for the lives lost. Too many women are facing gender-based violence.” said Carli van Wyk, president of the student representative council at Stellenbosch University.

Van Wyk’s words echoed to all those who gathered in support.

“We grow up teaching our girls and our sisters not to walk alone, to carry pepper spray and to entertain locker room talk and cat calling because that’s the way it is and that’s the way it will always be.” says Van Wyk. “But I say no!”, Van Wyk yelled, with the crowd shouting in agreement.

She quoted the Constitution of South Africa’s section 9.2, which states: “Equality includes the full and equal enjoyment of all rights and freedoms. To promote the achievement of equality, legislative and other measures designed to protect or advance persons, or categories of persons, disadvantaged by unfair discrimination may be taken.”

She added: “We have the right to walk freely in our streets, we have the right to feel safe, we have the right to feel dignified.”

The organiser of the gathering, Nicole Mirkin added: “Our female citizens are not safe in a post office (Uyinene), they are not safe in their grandmother’s backyards and they are not safe in their diapers,” said Nicole Mirkin, organiser of the gathering.

The crowd was chanting “Enough is Enough”, while posters containing the

Thousands gathered outside Parliament mourning the loss of many women and standing up to end gender-based violence.

Van Wyk’s speech ended with the words, “Rest in peace our beloved sister Nkosi Sikelel’ iAfrika” and everyone sang the national anthem – not in happiness, but in mourning and solidarity.

When announcing that the President himself will be receiving the memorandum from Mirkin, it was met with mixed emotions from the crowd.

Some of the demands in the memorandum include: . Police stations need to become safe spaces, with the necessary counselling availa-

Harsher penalties for perpetrators of violence against women. . The police’s visibility in crime ridden areas needs to be increased in order to deter acts of crime.

On Monday 9 September, CPUT students gathered at the Bellville campus to allow a day of mourning in solidarity with victims of gender-based violence.

The outcome of a mediation meeting between the National Energy Regulator (Nersa) and the City of Cape Town regarding electricity tariffs, is eagerly expected this week.

The mediation meeting between the City and disgruntled customers followed a complaint lodged to Nersa by lobby group Stop COCT on behalf of 13 400 members a fortnight ago.

The meeting took place in Bellville yesterday (Tuesday 10 September).

Various issues escalated to Nersa, were deliberated on. This includes the home user surcharge implemented by the City; the basic charge on pre-paid electricity; the relationship between the municipal bylaws and the Electricity Regulation Act and electricity distribution licence conditions that must be complied with. According to a memo from Vuyelwa Poswa, dispute resolution officer of Nersa, these issues stem from complaints and questions posed to Nersa by City customers. “We are looking to provide more clarity and also capacitate customers on how electricity regulations work within our mandate,” she said.

In a fact-finding meeting on Monday, Stop COCT was given an opportunity to clarify issues with Nersa. Co-founder of Stop COCT Sandra Dickson said the meeting was fruitful. “I am hopeful that mediation procedures with the City will be successful,” she said on Monday 9 September.

Issues raised by Stop COCT in recent weeks centres around the affordability of electricity to residents of Cape Town.

Should mediation fail, the legal process of arbitration will follow, according to Nersa legal adviser Mmboniseni Murathi.

Media was not allowed to attend the closed mediation meeting. At the time of print, TygerBurger was still awaiting the official outcome. Desirée Rorke

Rape of student investigated RICHARD ROBERTS @richardjohn_rj

P

arow police confirmed that a rape case had been opened at the station following an attack on a nursing student at Tygerberg hospital.

Lt.Col Kobus van Dyk, Parow police spokesperson, says the incident is being investigated by Bellville police’s family violence, child protection and sexual offences unit.

The nursing student was attacked on Tuesday 3 September.

The 21-year-old student was enrolled at the department of nursing science at the Cape Peninsula University of Technology (CPUT).

“We as the nursing department are deeply touched and affected by the incident that happened to an innocent student. She is a precious individual who serves the well-being of the community and she needs the respect she deserves from others,” Prof Karien Jooste of CPUT says.

On behalf of the department, I express our deepest concern about the safety of women in our country, she adds.

The incident was condemned by the department of community safety.

“I condemn in the strongest terms the reported attack on a CPUT nursing student on Tuesday night outside Tygerberg Hospital,” Albert Fritz, minister for community safety, says.

He told TygerBurger that the department is currently arranging a meeting with CPUT, the University of Cape Town, Stellenbosch University, and the University of the Western Cape to discuss safety strategies and solutions going forward, to ensure that students are safeguarded at their places of learning.

“The extent of gender-based violence in our society is deplorable and I further call upon the men of our province to stand against it,” Fritz says.

Nomawethu Sbukwana, spokesperson to the minister of health, Nomafrench Mbombo, also issued a statement in which their

‘Time for talking is over’ RICHARD ROBERTS @richardjohn_tj The recent spate of brutal attacks on women has led to a massive outcry by the public, calling for the protection of women.

While mass marches were held and schools organised services to call for a stop against violence against women and children, non-profit organisations also made their voices heard.

The Saartjie Baartman Centre for Women and Children in Manenberg is one of the organisations that deal with gender-based vio-

Men welcome at Self-defence Morning Limited spots are available for TygerBurger’s annual Self-defence Morning, taking place on Saturday 12 October.

While it used to be a women-only event in the past, men won’t be shown the door. On the day, attendees will be taught simple yet practical moves to ward off an attacker. Fact is the best self-defense strategies and techniques work equally well for men and women, regardless of age. Parents who’d like to send their teenage children are welcome to do so.

The course is presented by Francois du Plessis, a fifth dan karate instructor with 36 years’ experience.

The staff at the centre have been left distressed and angered by the ever-escalating violence against women and children.

“We remain determined to increase our efforts to eradicate GBV, especially by way of our advocacy and lobbying platforms and outreach programmes,” said Bernadine Bachar, director of the centre.

The facility is a one-stop centre for women and children who are survivors of abuse.

Asked what they reckon should be done to address the attacks on women, Bachar responded with a lengthy list.

department says it is shocked by the incident.

According to her, the first-year student was abducted outside the hospital and sexually assaulted by a group of unknown men.

“The student was released and received medical treatment at Karl Bremer hospital’s Thuthuzela care centre with counselling afforded as well,” Sbokwana says.

Mbombo visited the student on Wednesday 4 September and also expressed her shock. “The department condemns these horrific attacks on our students, and is working with the police around the circumstances of these attacks,” Mbombo says.

Capt Frederick van Wyk, provincial police spokesperson, also confirmed the rape and kidnapping case but says no one has been arrested as yet in connection with the attack. According to him, the student was kidnapped near the pedestrian gate leaving Tygerberg hospital. She was raped in bushes next to the Bishop Lavis court, he says.

“The circumstances surrounding the case are being investigated,” Van Wyk says.

“Government needs to take action now.

The time for talking is over. Our government has consistently failed the most vulnerable members of our society. The police and the department of justice need to account for, and address systemic failures within their departments. Financial resources are needed to ensure that all sectors are adequately funded to address the national crisis. The provision of bail for alleged perpetrators of GBV must be repealed and harsher sentencing by our criminal courts is also critical,” Bachar explains.

She says society can also play their part.

“The struggle against GBV is a societal struggle and the responsibility of every person. Education about GBV, its impact and consequences, must start in the home”.

Liefdadigheidskonsert vir Alta du Toit gehou Die immergewilde Pedro Kruger is weer vanjaar die seremoniemeester by die Alta du Toit-nasorgsentrum se Groot Charity Konsert, wat op Dinsdag 8 en Woensdag 9 Oktober in die Bellville-burgersentrum gehou word.

Verlede jaar was die twee aande uitverkoop. Met vanjaar se 10 uitstekende kunstenaars wat gaan optree, kan dieselfde verwag word.

Kruger sal ook die gaste vermaak en die konsertgangers sal die aand deel met die inwoners van die nasorgsentrum.

“Ons is baie opgewonde om vanjaar vir Corlea vir albei aande te hê. Sy gaan saam met die sentrum se ambassadeur, Andriette Norman, op beide aande optree,” het Marina van der Meulen, bemarkingsbestuurder van die Alta du Toit-sentrum, gesê. Die ander kunstenaars wat op 8 Oktober optree, is Emo Adams, Dowwe Dolla, Desmond Wells en die nuwe sangsensasie, Tasché Burger.

Op 9 Oktober is dit Hiram Koopman, Loki Rothman, Pieter Koen, Nicolas Louw en Wayne Mackay, wat saam met Andriette en Corlea gaan optree. Mackay gaan ook met sy komedie die gehoor vermaak.

“Die konsert is ’n kombinasie van die talente van intellektueelgestremde persone wat bygestaan word deur bekende akteurs en is ’n absolute unieke konsep. Die kliënte van Alta du Toit is bekend vir hul liefde vir musiek en dans, maar omdat ons hulp nodig het met afrigting, is bekendes genader om te help en ook die aand op te tree,” het sy gesê. Al die kunstenaars en

Race car, a testimony of hard work TIYESE JERANJI @jeranji

N

orthlink College launched its own, one-of-a-kind, race car at the Killarney International Raceway on Tuesday 27 August.

The idea came from the college’s deputy chief executive officer for corporate services Neil Maggott, to extend the college’s vision of skills development and training for students keen to pursue a career in the automotive trades.

The lecturers and the students worked on this project for three months.

Motor mechanical and panel beating stu-

dents were introduced to the practical elements of modifying a standard Toyota Yaris, 1.3F into a racecar.

Modifications to the Toyota Yaris included a lowered suspension with a coil-over system; a roll cage, uprated front brake pads; a Unichip system into the engine management system (which improves the ignition timing process); a free flow exhaust; low-profile tyres accompanied by 6.5 J-rims and racing seats with four-point harnesses.

The wheel fender arches were flared and the signature spray painting was done by the students under the guidance of the spray painting lecturers, while suspension troubleshooting and improvement was done un-

der the guidance of a motor mechanic lecturer.

“I believe that our race car is very unique and will be a huge attraction and very popular among school learners and the public who might be interested in pursuing a career in the automotive trades at our college,” said Maggott.

The college believes the car would also be a valuable branding asset at career festivals, school visits, college functions and other local events.

“The finished project is testimony of the innovative approach that our college prides ourselves in. This makes investing in our students worthwhile,” he said.

Though this race car will be used mainly for branding now, the college is considering the option of racing the car. “The idea is to have a student team, so watch this space,” said Maggott adding that he believes their race car is very unique and will be a huge attraction.

With so much effort and time put into this, “both students and staff felt a sense of pride and accomplishment as they watched the car race around the Killarney race track,” he concluded.

‘Chester nooit groter as rugby nie’ AVRIL FILLIES

“N

og ’n stukkie van my hart is weg met die heengaan van Chester Williams (49) van Plattekloof, maar ek dank die Here vir die tyd wat ons met hom hier op aarde kon deurbring en wat hy vir rugby vir die land beteken het.”

Dis hoe Dougie Dyers, voormalige afrigter en mentor van Chester, oor sy skielike heengaan op Vrydag 6 September gesê het.

“Ek is trots op wat Chester bereik het en dat hy uit Federasie-geledere gekom het. Hy het hoë standaarde gestel in sy rugby en ook in sy persoonlike lewe en vandag se jeug kan dit alles navolg. Alle eer vir wie en wat Chester was, kom sy ouers, sy ooms en wyle Bill Jacobs (afrigter van die Paarl) toe, want hulle het hom die nodige leiding gegee. Die Albions-rugbyklub moet ook bedank word vir sy bydrae tot Chester en wyle Tinus Linee se rugbyloopbane, want albei was die verpersoonliking van wat Federasie-spelers kan vermag wat nie dieselfde kanse as hulle twee gekry het nie,” het hy gesê.

Vriende en familie beskryf hom as saggeaard, skaam, vriendelik, altyd ’n glimlag op sy gesig en sy mensliewendheid, of net ’n omgeemens. Chester se dood het skokgolwe deur die land gestuur, veral nadat daar onlangs van nog ’n 1995-Wêreldbeker-Springbok, James Small, afskeid geneem is.

Dis op die rugbyveld waar Chester gewys het dat hy sy rugbygene van sy pa, Wilfred, ooms, Avril en Randall Williams, en Adam Dombas, broer van sy ma, wyle Julene, van die Paarl ontvang het. Hy was deel van die seëvierende wêreldbekerspan van 1995 en

was destyds die “gesig” van 1995 wat die land saamgesnoer het.

Die grondslag vir sy rugbyloopbaan is by die Laerskool Klein-Nederberg gelê en afrigters wat ’n groot bydrae tot sy rugbyloopbaan gemaak het, is Dougie Dyers, Charles Williams, Wessel Seconds en wyle Phillip Abrahams.

“Chester het natuurlike rugbytalent gehad, want hy kom uit twee families met rugbybloed, naamlik die Williams- en Dombas-gesinne. Oom Avril het na Errol Tobias die tweede Springbok geword toe hy sy debuut teen Billy Beaumont se Engelse op die Boet Erasmus-stadion in Port Elizabeth gemaak het,” het Charles Williams, een van sy afrigters by die WP-Liga, gesê.

Sy rugbyloopbaan het saamgeloop met Linee s’n en albei het vir die rugbyklub Albions op senter in die Paarl uitgedraf. Daarna is hulle saam vir die WP-Liga se Cravenweekspanne en ook die senior span gekies, voordat hulle albei vir die WP uitgedraf het. In 1993 het albei Springbokke geword en die res is geskiedenis.

“In 1991 was ek die afrigter van die WP-Liga en was baie ongewild by die publiek toe ek albei op senter gekies het, en die destydse kaptein, Wilfred Cupido, weggelaat het.

“Chester was nie ’n prater nie en baie stil. Hy het reeds op skool goeie belofte getoon en het die geleenthede gebruik om suksesvol in rugby te wees. Hy het nooit sy gemeenskap vergeet nie en was die ‘Pêrel van Paarl’, wat die weg gebaan het vir bruin en swart spelers van vandag, wat hul droom om Springbok te word, kon najaag,” het Williams gesê.

Pompies Williams was sy kaptein by Paarl-Liga en hy sê Chester het reeds

as jong seun by die destydse Federasieweke by die destydse Suid-Afrikaanse Kleurlingkorps (SAKK) op Faure potensiaal gewys.

“Wat ek van hom sal onthou, is sy nederigheid en dat hy nooit groter as rugby geword het nie. Hy het rugby altyd eerste gestel en uitgereik na die gemeenskap in Paarl. Hy het nie toegelaat dat politiek sy rugbyloopbaan opneuk nie en het geglo dat sport gemeenskappe kan saamsnoer en jy verskille kan besleg. Sy pa se familie was almal stoere Albions-mense, terwyl sy ma se familie vir Rangers ondersteun het,” het hy gesê.

Oom Avril sê hy sal sy geselsies met Chester mis.

“Hy was 14 jaar oud toe ek in 1984 Springbok word en het my bewonder.

Ek het nooit gedink ek sal eendag saam met hom in een span speel nie, maar ons het in 1992 vir die SA Weermagspan oorsee as senters uitgedraf. Spelers soos Archie Johnson en Richard Croy, wat ook groot naam in Federasie-rugby was, was deel van die span.

“Hy en Tienie was soos broers en tot Tienie se afsterwe in 2014, was daardie broederliefde nog net so heg soos toe hulle kinders in Paarl se strate was.

“Chester was familievas en ek sal sy vriendelikheid en sy bereidwilligheid om ander te help mis,” het hy gesê. ’n Gedenkdiens word vandag om 13:00 in die Hoofsaal by die Universiteit van Wes-Kaapland gehou en Donderdagaand (12 September) om 19:00 word ’n gedenkdiens in die Bolandkrieketstadion in Paarl gehou.

Sy begrafnisdiens word Saterdag 14 September in die Nuweland-rugbystadion om 12:00 gehou. Hy laat sy vrou, Maria, en drie kinders agter.

WOMEN’S RUGBY: THIRD WIN FOR TEAM

WP: Queens of SA rugby W

estern Province (WP) claimed a third consecutive South African Rugby women’s interprovincial A-section title in searing heat at City Park on Saturday 7 September, beating Border 38-32 in a dramatic final.

The Capetonians had to fight back three times during the match to stay in contention after a strong start by Border, which saw the visitors lead 17-10 at the break. Both sides scored six tries, but two in quick succession late in the second half proved decisive for the champions.

Star winger, Kimico Manuel dotted down in the opening minutes to hand WP an early lead, but a converted try by Border had them back in the lead five minutes later.

Border scored their second try with centre, Mophy Ngwevu, finishing off some good work by the forwards.

It was Manual who again ghosted past several Border defenders to score her team’s second try. Border scored their third try of the first half with Nosi Gada benefitting.

The second half was equally entertaining.

The home side drew level thanks to a Vuyo Maqholo try after a strong break by centre Shaunique Hess.

Border took the lead again though Akhona Dotwana. That 22-17 lead was soon overturned by a converted try from WP, before Border again took the lead with a try.

Trailing 24-29, the home side struck twice

The home side’s lead jumped to 38-27 and with time running out, Tose got a second.

But the WP defence held out in the last frantic minutes to claim glory.

‘TygerBurger’ hou gholfdag vir Huis Jabes Op Vrydag 27 September bied TygerBurger ’n gholfdag aan ten bate van Huis Jabes – ’n veilige hawe vir vrouens en kinders van gesinsgeweld.

Spelers sal by die Kuilsrivier-gholfklub sake uitspook en groot pryse is op die spel.

Die formaat is ’n vierbal-samespel met twee tellings wat tel.

Pro Fans sal sorg vir gesogte sportmemorabilia, wat tydens die prysuitdelingsdinee opgeveil sal word. Die opbrengs sal aan Huis Jabes geskenk word. ’n Paar sportsterre sal ook deel wees van die dag se verrigtinge en besonderhede hieroor sal later bekend gemaak word. Die sportvasvrakompetisie behoort ook groot aftrek te vind. Daar is reeds ’n aantal vierballe verkoop en spasie is beperk.

Die koste is R2 500 per vierbal, wat middag- en aandete insluit. Maatskappye word aangemoedig om deel te word van die dag en kan putjies koop om hul produkte te vertoon.

Spelers moet die Kuilsrivier-gholfklub skakel by 021 903 0222 indien hulle gholfkarretjies wil bespreek.

Twee gratis vierballe is op die spel, waarvan een vir juniors en een vir vroue is. Enige vier juniors (nie ouer as 18 jaar nie) kan ’n e-pos stuur en motiveer hoekom hulle die wenner van die gratis vierbal moet wees.

Dieselfde geld vir die vrouespan van enige ouderdom.

Die eerste vierbal slaan om 11:30 af.

Bel 021 910 6544 of stuur ’n e-pos na madelein.venter@media24.com om te bespreek.
