Busdief gou vas
GRATIS
Polisie skiet bande stukkend; ry ent voort Marti Will NÁ ’n wille jaagtog en skietery Sondag in die vroeë oggendure is ’n gesteelde Megabus deur die polisie tot stilstand gebring en die vermeende busdief in hegtenis geneem. Die dief het met die bus deur die hek van die Megabus-depot op Virginia gejaag en in die rigting van Meloding gery. André Meyer, depotbestuurder van Megabus op Virginia, sê die voorval is onmiddellik by die polisie aangemeld en die bus is vyf minute later deur ’n polisiepatroliemotor opgemerk. “Ná vele probeerslae om die bus tot stilstand te bring het die bestuurder, ’n gewese Megabuswerknemer, probeer om die polisie te ontvlug. Versterkings is in-
geroep en polisielede van Virginia, Meloding en Thabong was gou op die toneel,” sê Meyer. Die polisie het die bus se bande stukkend geskiet om dit tot stilstand te bring, maar die drywer het met die pap bande voortgery. “Die bus het deur Virginia gejaag en is eindelik terug na Meloding en net buite Virginia op die Hennenman-pad tot stilstand gebring. Die drywer het die veld in gehardloop, maar hy is gou in hegtenis geneem,” sê Meyer. “Megabus wil graag die polisielede bedank vir hul vinnige optrede. Dit het daartoe bygedra dat die bus binne ’n uur teruggevind is,” sê hy. Ao. Malebo Khosana, polisiewoordvoerder, sê ’n saak van motordiefstal en roekelose en nalatige bestuur word ondersoek.
Nanny charged with hurting baby Refilwe Mochoari

IT WAS a shocking discovery for Puleng Maqalike to find that her ten-month-old baby was beaten, thrown around, bitten and abused by his nanny. Little Omphilelerato spent 11 days in the Mediclinic Welkom due to the injuries he sustained after being brutally attacked. Omphilelerato’s whole body is bruised, he has teeth marks on his tummy, his nose is scarred and he has bruises all over his head. Maqalike came back from work and found Makabelo Lepota (29),
who had been the nanny in the household since April, feeding the baby. Maqalike asked why the baby was crying so much. She became worried and immediately took the child to hospital. The doctor told her that her son had been abused. “I am still shocked about the incident. I cannot believe that a person can be so cruel to an innocent child. It is by the grace of God that my child is still alive. First she took my baby to Virginia without my consent, but because all her plans failed she came back and hurt my son. “The plan was to kill my baby,
but she failed. I am just grateful that my baby is still alive today. “I am very hurt by what happened because the relationship I had with Lepota was perfect. We never fought or had an argument, so I do not know what happened that day. “She was a good person who went the extra mile when asked to do something. I would never have expected her to hurt my son. “I even did research before I employed her and I found that she has a track-record of looking after children. “This has taught me a great les-

son never to trust anybody with my child. I will never again get a nanny in my life. He will rather stay with my mother and go to school when the time is right. “Mothers must beware of whom they hire – these days it is not safe. I am still scared and wonder what could have happened to my baby,” she said. Maqalike has registered a case with the Welkom Police and Lepota was arrested immediately and appeared in the Welkom Magistrate’s Court on charges of attempted murder. She will appear in court again on Monday for bail application.
