Moord op 80jarige skok dorp ODETTE KEMP
Swart het ontken dat Human aan 15 steekwonde gesterf het, soos inwoners op sosiale netwerke beweer het. “Ek kan wel bevestig dat hy met ’n stomp voorwerp oor die kop geslaan is, wat waarskynlik die oorsaak van sy dood was.” ’n Nadoodse ondersoek sal bepaal wanneer Human vermoor is. “Die polisie ondersoek ’n saak van moord en roof omdat verskeie huishoudelike items, insluitend elektriese toestelle en ’n klankstelsel, vermis word,” het Swart gesê. Pieter Terblanche, raadslid op Uitenhage, het inwoners aangeraai om versigtiger te wees ná dié voorval. “Dit lyk of ouer inwoners deesdae geteiken

ie moord op ’n bejaarde inwoner (80) van Uitenhage se Van Riebeeckhoogte het skokgolwe deur die gemeenskap gestuur. Thys Human se lyk is Saterdagoggend in sy woning in Cathcartstraat gevind nadat sy bure onraad vermoed het en besluit het om ondersoek te gaan instel. Human, ’n pensioentrekker, het alleen gewoon. “Een van die deure het oopgestaan. Die bure het binnegegaan en op hul buurman se lyk afgekom,” het ao. Gerda Swart, ’n polisiewoordvoerder, gesê.
word; ons moet dus almal meer bedag wees.” Francois Greyling, raadslid in die buurdorp Despatch, het die voorval as “tragies” bestempel. “Enige verlies van lewe is hartseer, maar dit is angswekkend dat die inwoners van Uitenhage en Despatch ook onder moordenaars deurloop. “Hier slaap ons nog met ons deure oop, maar nou is ons ook nie meer veilig nie.” Intussen is twee verdagtes die afgelope naweek in hegtenis geneem in verband met twee afsonderlike moorde wat in Kamesh gepleeg is. In die eerste voorval het ’n man (25) se motor omstreeks 06:00 Saterdag in Tiryville
Where are the Cannon Hill iron gates? HEILIE COMBRINCK Ironically, Cannon Hill which once made an ideal look-out point for the safety of Uitenhage in protecting its residents, has now become the playground of vagrants. All four ornamental gates which were erected during 1953 at the entrance to Cannon Hill, to commemorate the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, have mysteriously disappeared. “This is shocking. These impressive gates most probably have been sold as scrap metal. Don’t tell me a scrap metal dealer would not have recognised it as being stolen from a historic site,” said Councillor Pieter Terblanche. Apart from the mysterious disappearing of the ornamental gates, it seems that there also is confusion among municipal departments as to whose responsibility this historic site is. “Officials from the department of parks and recreation said Cannon Hill is not their responsibility and that it falls under the jurisdiction of the department of arts and culture as this is a national monument. The latter also seems not to know whose responsibility

Cannon Hill is.” Terblanche said Cannon Hill is one of the identified areas mentioned in his integrated development plan, requesting to be budgeted for in upgrading the site as a tourist attraction. “There is no supervision. The caretaker retired and I understand that the current workers on site are from the Expanded Public Works Programme (EPWP). This is a programme to reduce and alleviate unemployment and increase the ability of workers to earn an income.” According to one of the workers “they have never seen gates and that the gates were already gone when they started cleaning the park.” A resident opposite the entrance to Cannon Hill told the UD News that they had not seen anybody working at the gates and that it has been gone for “quite a while”. )Anybody with information regarding the whereabout of the gates is requested to contact Councillor Pieter Terblanche on0041 922 7815.

gaan staan, waarna vier mans hom glo beroof en met ’n mes in die bors gesteek het. Volgens Swart is die man op die toneel oorlede. Inligting het later tot die inhegtenisneming van een verdagte (26) gelei, maar die polisie soek steeds na die ander verdagtes. In nog ’n voorval het twee mans glo Saterdagoggend omstreeks 08:00 in Bhucustraat gestry, waarna die een (38) die ander (24) met ’n mes gesteek het. Die jonger man het gereageer deur die ander met ’n byl in die nek te kap. Volgens Swart is die 24-jarige verdagte in hegtenis geneem nadat die ouer man op die toneel gesterf het. Die verdagte sal binnekort in die hof verskyn op aanklag van moord.
