Vir dood gelos Ouma vir bykans twee ure gemartel, terwyl sy gedink het haar kleinkind is voor haar vermoor

Deur Andries van Zyl

Gemartel, gewurg en vir dood agtergelaat ... Vir mev. Petro Weyers van Makhado (Louis Trich ardt) is die beste verjaardaggeskenk waarvoor sy egter kon vra die feit dat beide sy en haar sesjarige kleindogter, Chaney, nog lewe. Die twee is verlede Donderdagoggend (6de) wreedaardig aangeval in ‘n huisroof by Petro se woonstel in die Kismet-kompleks in Andersonstraat. Die aanval het plaasgevind presies ‘n week voor Petro se 66ste verjaardag op 13 Februarie. Die Zoutpansberger het Petro minder as vier ure ná die aand se skokgebeure by haar woonstel gevind. Bebloed en steeds in skok het Petro dapper die skriknag se gebeure herleef, terwyl die klein blondekop Chaney ongesteurd eenkant gespeel het. Dit was egter moeilik om die bloukolle op haar gesiggie mis te kyk, asook die dik, rooi vingermerke om haar nekkie soos haar aanvaller haar gewurg het. Petro, Chaney Die 66jarige mev. Petro Weyers en haar sesjarige kleinkind, Chaney, afgeneem se voog, het omstreeks 23:00 die kort nadat hulle wreedaardig aangeval en vir dood agtergelaat is.

vorige aand wakker geword van ‘n geraas. Sy het opgestaan en Chaney, wat saam met haar in haar dubbelbed geslaap het, wou dadelik weet wat is fout. Petro het al die ligte in die huis aangeskakel, maar kon niks verkeerd vind nie. Al die deure was gesluit en die twee het rustig weer gaan slaap. Omstreeks 01:30 is hierdie rustigheid verpletter. “Ek het wakker geword met hande om my keel en ‘n man wat wydsbeen bo-op my sit ... daar was ook een op haar [Chaney] ... Die maerder een het op haar gesit, maar hy was ‘n baie wrede een,” sê Petro. In die donker van die kamer was Petro en klein Chaney se aanvallers se gesigte niks meer as swart silhoeëtte teen die dowwe lig deur die toegetrekte gordyne nie. Petro se aanvaller het vlot Afrikaans gepraat, maar het Engels met sy makker gepraat. Drie keer het Chaney smekend uitgeroep: “Ouma! Ouma! Ouma!” Elke keer het Chaney se aanvaller haar deur die gesig geklap en gewurg met die woorde: “Shut up! Shut up!” “Daar is steeds ‘n wroeging in my hart dat Chaney gedink het ek wou haar nie help nie, maar ek kon nie ...” sê Petro. Ná Chaney se derde angsroep om hulp - met haar aanvaller se hande styf om haar nekkie soos hy die lewe uit haar probeer wurg het - het haar stem stil geword. Die man het haar opgetel en haar lyfie op die vloer gegooi. “Ek het gedink my kind is dood,” sê Petro. Dan oorval die emosie haar weer en begin sy onbeheersd huil. “Ek het baie gebid ... O, ek wil dit nooit weer deurleef nie...” prewel sy die woorde uit. Die aanvaller op Petro het ‘n mes uitgepluk en kort-kort teen haar nek en sy gedruk. Ses keer het hy haar gewurg, telkens net tot voor sy haar bewussyn verloor. Dan het hy sy greep verslap sodat sy weer kon asem skep, net om haar weer te wurg.

Kort-kort het die man wat pas vir Chaney gewurg het, oorgeleun en vir Petro met die vuis in die gesig geslaan. Hierdie marteling het vir bykans twee ure aangeduur. “Hulle het aanmekaar gevra ‘Waar is die wapens?’ dan sê ek ‘Ek het nie’, dan vra hulle weer ‘Waar is die geld?’ dan sê ek ‘Ek het nie’. Ek het ‘n R1 200 in my beursie gehad ... hulle het dit gevat,” vertel Petro, terwyl die trane oor haar wange rol. Sy wys dan na haar hande en arms. Dit is vol diep snye wat veroorsaak is toe haar aanvallers haar ringe, horlosie en armbande van haar afgeruk het. Sy sê sy slaap altyd met haar juwele aan. (Vervolg op p.2)

Marteling duur ure lank

Die kamer waarin die marteling plaasgevind het. By Tshifhiwa Mukwevho

Two of four escapees quickly rearrested Two of the four escapees who overpowered a police officer and escaped while they were being offloaded at the Louis Trichardt District Court, Given Mpofu (24) and Dzulani Nemuku la (23), were recaptured on 8 February. According to the spokesperson for the Makhado police, W/O Takalani Madzhigili, a task team was compiled immediately after the four suspects’ escape from lawful custody. Mpofu, Nemukula, Evans Chipara and Trust Chikwadzi escaped on 30 January. “Mpofu and Nemukula were arrested at the South African side of the Beit Bridge area at about 15:00,” said Madzhigili. “They later pointed out the spot where they had hidden one unlicensed

pistol in a bushy area in Musina.” The two recaptured escapees appeared in the Musina Magistrate’s Court for possession of an unlicensed firearm and ammunition. This matter was postponed to 25 February for transfer of this new case to the Louis Trichardt District Court, where all their cases will be centralised. “The joining of charges is done solely for court administration purposes,” said Madzhigili. The suspects’ other cases include escaping from lawful custody, possession of a firearm and ammunition, housebreaking with intent to steal and theft, assault with intent to do grievous bodily harm and robbery. Chipara and Trust Chikwadzi are still at large.

(Vervolg van p. 1) In ‘n stadium het die twee eers Petro se bene vasgebind, asook haar hande. Daarna het hulle een van Chaney se vuil slaapbroeke gevat, opgerol en ‘n knoop daarin gemaak. Hulle het die knoop in haar mond gedruk en die slaapbroek om haar kop vasgemaak. Daarna het hulle met gordyntou uit Petro se studeerkamer haar hande styf om haar nek vasgedraai en vasgebind. Asof dit nie genoeg was nie, het hulle ‘n laken om Petro se kop gedraai en haar met kussings en komberse toegepak op haar bed. Sy kon beswaarlik asemhaal en wou kort-kort haar bewussyn verloor. “Gelukkig kon ek met my vingers die lap uit my mond kry, anders het ek versmoor,” sê Petro. Intussen is haar kamer en die res van die huis geplunder. Na wat soos ‘n ewigheid gevoel het, het dit skielik stiller geword. “Ek het so ‘n halfuur gelê, toe roep ek ‘Chaney? Chaney?’ ... toe kom sy by.” Chaney het opgestaan en haar ouma tot in ‘n sittende posisie gehelp. Haar klein handjies was egter nie sterk genoeg om die toue om haar ouma se nek los te woel nie. Sy kon wel die tou om Petro se bene loskry, sodat Petro een voet kon uitkry. Hierna het klein Chaney, vreesbevange en nie eers seker of hul aanvallers nog in die huis was nie, na die studeerkamer gestap en die telefoon gaan haal, aangesien Petro se selfoon ook gesteel was. Petro kon toe haar broer, mnr. Johnny Gouws, skakel. Dit was ongeveer 03:30. “Sy [Chaney] het vir my die nommers gedruk. Sy is my held! Sy het ons lewens gered. Ouma is trots op jou!” sê Petro terwyl sy na klein Chaney kyk. Weer rol die trane. Johnny en sy seun het hulle na die woonstel gehaas. Daar aangekom, is die polisie ontbied.

“Ons het eers om die woonstel geloop en toe kom ons in. Toe maak ek haar los, want sy was vas, vas, vas! Sy sou in haar lewe nie daardie tou afkry nie,” sê Johnny. Hy sê hy het amper 10 minute gesukkel om Petro los te kry. Haar toestand was vir hom ‘n groot skok, maar immers het sy suster en klein Chaney nog gelewe. “Dank die Here ons altwee lewe, my kind lewe! Ek was bang sy was dood. Toe ek so lê en ek hoor haar nie, toe dink ek sy is dood ... dit sou my dood beteken het,” sê Petro. Sy het geen twyfel daaroor dat hul aanvallers aangeneem het dat nie een van hulle die aanval sou oorleef nie. Die polisie was redelik vinnig op die toneel, maar het klaarblyklik geen verklarings afgeneem of die misdaadtoneel afgesper voordat hulle weer gery het nie. Vrae hieroor en ander vrae, soos hoe die aanvallers toegang tot die woonstel verkry het, bly steeds onbeantwoord. Geen diefwering is geknip nie en al die deure was gesluit na die aanval. Een van die buitedeure se sleutel was egter vermis, alhoewel dit nog die vorige aand daar was. Lt.kol. Ronel Otto, provinsiale polisie woordvoerder, is gevra waarom daar nie tydens die polisie se eerste besoek verklarings geneem is of die area afgesper is nie. Sy het gesê dat die polisielede wat eerste op die toneel was weliswaar die toneel moes beveilig het, totdat die misdaadtoneelbevelvoerder die toneel kom oorneem het. “As dit nie gebeur het in hierdie geval nie, dan sal daar ‘n volledige interne ondersoek wees. Sou daar verkeerde optrede gewees het, kan dissiplinêre stappe geneem word,” het Otto gesê. Die polisie het wel later die oggend die toneel besoek, goeie vingerafdrukke gekry en verklarings afgeneem. Teen druktyd was daar nog geen arrestasies in die saak gewees nie.

“Dank die Here ons altwee lewe, my kind lewe! Ek was bang sy was dood. Toe ek so lê en ek hoor haar nie, toe dink ek sy is dood ... dit sou my dood beteken het”

Jacaranda FM’s breakfast team in town

The manager of Liquorzone, Hennie Janse van Rensburg.

Next week, residents of Ma khado (Louis Trichardt) can start their breakfast right here in town with the Compli mentary Breakfast team from Jacaranda FM. The team, consisting of Rian van Heerden, Dianne Broodryk, Robbie Kruse, Thabiso Khambule and MalJan, will visit the town on Thursday, 20 February, as part of the station’s Jacaranda FM Love Tour. Rian and his team will be broadcasting their breakfast show (06:00 until 09:00) from Makhado Crossing. There will be meet-and-greet opportunities with the team, as well as lunches, pub quizzes

and competitions. During the broadcast, there will be interviews with local residents and businesspeople. The idea of the Love Tour was sparked by a Limpopo listener who wanted to know when last the Complimentary Breakfast Team had visited Bela-Bela. Hence, Rian and his team felt that there was no better way to honour their faithful supporters than to hit the road, stopping off in various towns to thank the fans for their support. The tour will visit towns in Mpumalanga and Limpopo. Towns included in the Limpopo part of the tour are Bela-Bela,

Modimolle, Mookgophong, Mokopane, Tzaneen, Moria, Makhado (Louis Trichardt) and Polokwane. “The Love Tour serves as an opportunity for Jacaranda FM to say thank you for all the years of loyal support and give a little ‘love’ back to the people in these areas,” explained the station’s general manager, Mr Kevin Fine. Residents who want to form part of this initiative can either contact Jacaranda’s spokesperson, Monique Klingbiel, at 061 429 7324 or Johan Wilken from Makhado Crossing at 072 651 2130.

Residents hear upsetting facts about present crime spate At a meeting to discuss the alarming crime spate in downtown Makhado (Louis Trichardt), residents heard upsetting facts. It was distressing to a community fraught with crime to hear that policemen have been seen associating with criminals. Mr Moses Raselabe suffered three times at the hands of criminals. “At one of the housebreaking incidents, I saw the perpetrator and nearly caught him. I told the police the name of the suspect, only to see a police officer hanging out with the very same guy. The criminals are friends with the police!” said Raselebe. Colonel Magala Rambau of the Makhado SAPS, who chaired the meeting in the AFM church hall on 8 February, said that they were aware of corruption and that they raised the issue regularly. “We have corrupt people who are not honest; I cannot run away from that. We should remove these rotten apples from the system. We have already arrested and fired two of our

policemen, but remember, we always need substantial evidence,” Col Rambau said. The meeting came about after a petition against crime initiated by Mr Bennie Bleskop and Pastor Ezekiel Rasilavhi, both residents of the downtown area. A very worrying fact is that Col Rambau said that the town is currently really experiencing a lot of trouble with crime. “We get two or three cases of housebreaking nearly every day and nearly every day we get theft out of motor vehicles,” said Rambau, who has been a victim of housebreaking himself. Rambau added that the police members who should be busy with crime prevention were often required to monitor protest action with regard to poor municipal service delivery issues or other matters in the region. Mr Bleskop said that the SAPS had arrived at the Pretorius Street bushes at night without torches after criminal activities in the vicinity had been reported to them. “Another time, they said that they had no vehicles, which I found very disappointing,” Bleskop said. He mentioned another incident where someone in an empty house had been stabbed “and the police were afraid to attend and kept standing at a distance.” Rambau emphasized that every policeman has been issued with a torch and that the lack-of-vehicle problem had been an excuse long ago, but not anymore. The area’s dilemma with foreigners was also raised by the SAPS. “I don’t want to sound xenophobic, but out of 30 people in the cells, only eight or nine are South Africans. I am referring to those foreigners “We are really troubled by crime,” said who have committed crimes and not to Colonel Magala Rambau of the SAPS those who are illegal and who are being deported by the truckload,” Rambau said. Makhado.

He urged the community not to offer piece jobs to illegal foreigners. Rambau did mention that the police station was understaffed and acknowledged the work of the farm watch and the town watch. Mr Dirk Meissenheimer of the town watch said that the number of town watch people available to patrol the streets had shrunk from 500 to 78, making it very difficult to man all the shifts. Mr Lampie Schoeman urged Col Rambau to allow the town watch once more to use green lights on their vehicles when they operate. Rambau agreed to contact the SAPS’s legal section on the matter. The petition made specific mention of the issues that made residents feel unsafe, including the late arrival or total failure of the police to respond to reported crime incidents and poor police patrolling or visibility during day and night, especially along the bushes, like in Pretorius Street. The recommendations were that the SAPS promptly respond to crimes and that there be regular police patrols, day and night. “We request the SAPS to assist us with the formation of street committees to curb crime,” reads the petition. There was a lot of debate on the forming of street committees versus joining the town watch. “Are you as member of a street committee going to walk up and down the streets and have your throat slit by a criminal or would you rather consider joining the town watch with an established structure?” Ms Patricia Gerber asked. Some residents indicated that they were interested to know more about the town watch and a follow-up meeting was to be scheduled.

Mr Dirk Meissenheimer of the town watch said that the number of town watch people available to patrol the streets had shrunk from 500 to 78, making it very difficult to man all the shifts.

It was distressing to a community, fraught with crime to hear that policemen have been seen associating with criminals. Mr Moses Raselabe (standing) said that he saw how a policeman associated with the suspect who had broken into his house. “The criminals are friends with the police!” said Raselebe.

Laaste rusplek word steeds erg afgeskeep

Waar is die grafte tussen die ruigtes? ‘n Plaaslike begrafnisonderneming het self ‘n pad na ‘n graf skoongesny, sodat begrafnisgangers by die graf kon uitkom. Dit het die onderneming twee dae geneem. Foto verskaf.

Die grawe van grafte in die munisipale begraaf plaas van Makhado (Louis Trichardt) is die verantwoordelikheid van die plaaslike munisi paliteit, soos ook uitgespel in ‘n onlangse media verklaring deur die Makhado Munisipaliteit. Die rou werklikheid is dat by ‘n begrafnis in Januarie vanjaar die graf glad nie gegrawe was nie. Die familie is hartseer op hartseer gespaar deurdat die begrafnisondernemer maar self die graf gegrawe het. Dit was ook nie die enigste taak wat Martin’s Begrafnisondernemers namens die munisipaliteit verrig het nie. Mnr. Dries Nel van Martin’s moes self die pad na die graf skoonsny, sodat die begrafnisgangers en die predikant net by die graf kon uitkom. “Die grassnyery het ‘n hele twee dae geneem. Jy moet met weedeaters werk. Ek wil nie hê die bedroefde mense moet daar diep in die gras staan nie,” het Nel gesê. “Die munisipaliteit het geen respek vir ons afgestorwenes en naasbestaandes nie. Ek sê dit na aanleiding van die toestand by die begraafplaas en die gebrek aan instandhouding daar,” het ds. Jan Pretorius hierdie week gesê. Die probleme wat hy geopper het, is die munisipaliteit se afwesigheid toe die graf gegrawe moes word, die grafte wat te groot of te skeef gegrawe word met ‘n munisipale tru-grawer, die beskadiging van grafstene deur die tru-grawer en die grafnommers en rye se nommers wat weg is. “Die gras was omtrent so hoog soos ek,” het Pretorius gesê. In Desember laasjaar was die probleem by ‘n begrafnis dat die graf verkeerd gegrawe was. “Hulle het die gat al hoe wyer gemaak en nie dieper nie. Dit is dan te wyd vir my masjiene en nie diep genoeg nie,” het Nel gesê. ‘n Begrafnisondernemer betaal die munisipaliteit meer as R800 vir ‘n graf. Ekstra onkostes moet aangegaan word om self ‘n graf te laat grawe en

om die gras gesny te kry. “Dit is die swakste diens van die munisipaliteit af. Dit kan nou nie erger nie,” het Nel gesê. Hy het beklemtoon dat sy begrafnisonderneming op hulle beurt die beste diens gee wat hulle kan, al sou dit dan beteken dat hulle alles self moet doen. Die munisipale woordvoerder, mnr. Louis Bobodi, het by navraag gesê dat grafte gegrawe word nadat alle prosedures afgehandel is. Nel het gesê dat hulle elke keer die doodsertifikaat en nog twee dokumente ingedien en betaal het en ‘n grafnommer gekry het, waarna die munisipaliteit die graf moes gaan grawe voordat die begrafnis plaasvind. Daar kan tereg gevra word hoe die posisie van ‘n graf gevind word in die hoë gras en in die afwesigheid van sigbare grafnommers. Nog ‘n vraag sou wees waarom niemand van munisipale kant agtergekom het dat die gras amper bo die grafstene staan nie. Bobodi het gesê dat hulle verskillende tipes toerusting het om die begraafplaas te onderhou en dat dit onder die toesig van die munisipaliteit se direkteur vir gemeenskapsdienste val. “Daar was voorheen twee bejaarde mans wat dit op ‘n manier skoongehou het, maar ek sien hulle nie meer daar nie,” het Nel gesê. Vir heelwat meer as ‘n dekade is die oorgroeide begraafplaas ‘n saak wat inwoners hewig ontstel en wat in die media aandag geniet. In Februarie 2007 is daar twee kantsnyers (weedeaters) aan die munisipaliteit geskenk vir spesifieke gebruik in die begraafplaas. By navraag oor wat van die toerusting wat geskenk is, geword het, het Bobodi geantwoord: “Their lifespan has already expired.” Hy het ook gesê dat die munisipaliteit nie die diens om die begraafplaas skoon en netjies te hou, uitkontrakteer nie, maar dat munisipale werkers dit self onderneem.

Horror crash claims ten, eleven injured

Tannie Elma van Niekerk bekyk die modderspoor in die bedding by haar voordeur. Deur Frans van der Merwe

“Sikloon Elisa” veroorsaak steeds skade Op ‘n natterige dag het tannie Elma van Niekerk ‘n span mu nisipale werkers by haar huis in Makhado (Louis Trichardt) vriendelik deurgelaat om va naf haar erf ‘n rioolprobleem op haar buurman se perseel by te kom. Weens ‘n nuwe buitjie reën, het sy hulle solank by haar voorhuis laat skuil. Die volgende oomblik was daar ‘n onaardse geraas in die voortuin. Toe tannie Elma haar daarheen haas om te sien wat besig is om te gebeur, vind sy in ongeloof en ontsteltenis ‘n yslike masjien wat al brullende staan en modder maal in haar sierlike blombedding reg by die voordeur - “Sikloon Elisa” het gearriveer. Dié laaigraafoperateur van die Makhado Munisipaliteit, wat plaaslik met haar vernietigende tru-grawer dié bynaam verwerf het, was besig om met kenmerkende moddermoles ‘n vernietigende spoor reg binnein tannie Elma se vertroetelde

voordeurbedding te dolwe. Maar nog erger - sy was besig om vasberade met die yslike masjien te mik in die rigting van die kleinhekkie langs die huis. Sy was duidelik van plan om met die masjien deur die byna piepklein opening te beur na die agtergrens van die erf, waar sy in alle erns met die opgrawe van die riool aan die gang wou kom. “Sy sou die helfte van die huismuur en die hekkie met die hele heining daar langs vernietig het, as ek haar nie tot stilstand gebring het nie,” vertel tannie Elma. “’n Kind kan mos sien dat jy nie met so ‘n affêre deur daardie smal opening kan kom nie. Ek het haar en die hele span toe daar verwilder. Daar was glad nie soveel mense nodig om ‘n riool oop te grawe nie, en dan nog boonop die masjien!” Tannie Elma sê sy kan nie glo dat die plaaslike munisipaliteit bloot kan toelaat dat dié lompe operateur maar net kan voortgaan met haar beskadiging van

eiendom nie. Benewens die keer toe sy die tru-grawer omgegooi het toe sy probeer het om vullis op ‘n ongemagtigde plek in Eltivillas te probeer toestoot, lê die vernietigende waarmerk van haar kaskenades ook nog steeds ingeëts in Louis Bothastraat se beskadigde teer. Dit is agtergelaat nadat sy chaos en duisende rande se skade veroorsaak het, waar sy net ‘n waterpyp moes oopgrawe. Nadat sy ‘n netjiese grasperk onnodig tot ‘n modderbad omskep het, vasgeval het en die masjien gered moes word deur ‘n noodsending, het sy voortgegaan, ‘n maroelaboom omgestoot wat oor ‘n sierboon gebreek en oor ‘n kragdraad geval het, wat afgebreek en op die sypaadjie gehang het. Sy het voortgegaan om die waterpyp te breek en op drie plekke onnodige letsels in die teerpad gekap. Dié skade op die teerpad is bloot so gelaat. Dit lê vandag nog daar.

The scene next to MTG Funer als in Thohoyandou resembled a war zone or a scene from a Hollywood horror movie. Lifeless bodies were scattered all over and the smell of fresh blood and death lingered in the air. The taxi was a complete wreck after it was torn into pieces on impact with an oncoming bus. In what used to be a taxi were groceries the dead had bought in Thohoyandou. The accident, which involved a bus from the Malamulele side, a taxi from Thohoyandou to Tshikonelo and a sedan, left 10 people dead and 11 injured. It took place on Monday afternoon. The news of the horrific accident spread like wildfire. Within a short space of time, hundreds of cars were parked for kilometres, with people scrambling to have a glimpse of the accident scene. It took more than four hours to clear up the scene and the road remained closed throughout the operation. The cause of the accident is still under investigation, with some bystanders blaming the bus driver for having caused the accident. It is believed the bus had veered into oncoming traffic, hitting an oncoming taxi before dragging a Polo sedan for some metres into the bush. The Polo is a complete wreck, but its three occupants escaped with injuries. The owner of the taxi, Mr Eric Mashila, who was also at the scene, said he was very shocked to see so many people dying in one accident. He said his driver, Mr Robert Mapango, was a very careful driver who always put the safety of his passengers first.

“I worked with this man since 1988 and never once was he involved in an accident; this is the first one. When God gave me these vehicles, I prayed that we should not have accidents as we are carrying the lives of the people. I am very saddened that so many people died in my taxi, but this is beyond my powers and I cannot even question why it happened in my taxi,” said Mashila. “We always hear of and see such horrific accidents on TV from far; these things do not happen around here. We are very shocked to see decapitated bodies with some limbs torn off from bodies. This will linger in my memory for a long time,” said Ms Thelma Marole, a principal at one of the local schools. Meanwhile, messages of condolences have started pouring in from different quarters. Premier Stan Mathabatha expressed his shock about the horrific accident and sent his condolences to the bereaved families. He again reiterated

the government’s stance on unroadworthy vehicles that continuously flood the province’s roads. “Traffic officials must continuously perform their work with due diligence to stamp out rowdy driving and unroadworthy vehicles,” he said. The MEC for Roads and Transport, Mr Lehlogonolo Masoga, has expressed shock over the accident. “Our thoughts and prayers are with the families of the deceased during this time of grief, and we wish a speedy recovery to the injured ones. The department shares the heartache and is saddened that so many lives continue to be lost on South African roads, which not only impacts negatively on their families but on the province and the country in general,’’ said Mazola. The spokesperson for the Thohoyandou Police, Const Avhafarei Tshiovhe, confirmed that they have opened a culpable homicide docket and at our going to press, only one family had identified one of the deceased.

This is all what was left of the taxi.

Hofnuus

Saak teen NG-leraar word weer uitgestel Die Direkteur van Openbare Vervolging (DOV) sal binnekort ‘n beslissing gee wat sal bepaal of ‘n leraar van Makhado (Louis Trichardt) vervolging in die gesig sal staar. Philip Arnoldus Venter (58), leraar van die NG Kerk Soutpansberg-gemeente, het Vrydag, 31 Januarie, weer in die distrikshof hier verskyn. Hy staar moontlik klagte, wat verband hou met die nalatige verlies van ‘n vuurwapen(s) en ook bedrog, in die gesig. Die verhoor teen Venter sloer steeds voort nadat hy reeds op 5 Julie verlede jaar vir die eerste keer vlugtig in die hof verskyn het op al die klagte. Die Staat sou na verwagting op 31 Oktober

die klagte teen Venter gestel het, sodat hy kan pleit en daar met sy verhoor begin kan word. Die saak is egter uitgestel, nadat Venter se regsverteenwoordiger, mnr. Jaco Venter, aangedui het dat hy wag vir die polisie om nadere besonderhede in die saak teen sy kliënt te verskaf. Daarbenewens het Venter se regsverteenwoordiger ook aangedui dat hy ‘n vertoë aan die DOV sal rig om te beslis of Venter wel vervolg moet word of nie. Intussen het Venter ook ‘n advokaat aangestel as deel van sy regsverteenwoordigingspan. Sy saak is uitgestel tot 14 Maart in afwagting op die DOV se beslissing.

News from Musina

Beware of land scam in Mopane area The Musina Municipality has issued a strong warning to hundreds of community mem bers who have fallen victim to a land-sale scam allegedly conducted by a group of people in the area. The communications manager of the municipality, Mr Wilson Dzebu, says the municipality

Mr Wilson Dzebu.

received a tip-off from reliable sources that there are people who are conning people of their hard-earned cash while promising them residential stands. “We heard that there are people who are claiming that they have won a land claim of a farm in the Mopane area. They are allegedly taking money and ID copies from unsuspecting community members in return for residential sites in that area. The municipality wants to put it on record that there is no such a thing. We also want to tell our people that the municipality does not have any relationship with those people. We are warning our people to refrain from paying for the fake stands because the initiative does not exist.” Dzebu says that, according to

the information supplied to them, some people are made to pay as little as R50 for a site. “Where on earth can one get a site for such a small amount? This is pure fraud and people should never allow themselves to be conned in broad daylight.” He added that the municipality is about to finalize its investigations and proper action will be taken thereafter. “Whoever is responsible for misleading our people will be dealt with accordingly. We have applicable laws that will be applied to make sure that the same thing never happens in future.” He added that the municipality will inform people accordingly when residential sites are available for sale and all correspondences will be handled in the municipal offices.

Nog twee in arres ná gefnuikte rooftog Twee van die drie oorblywende verdagtes wat deel was van ‘n gefnuikte roof by die Lou rens-egpaar van Levubu is nou ook in polisie-aanhouding. Fatuwani Mbedzi (24) en Ntsengeni Piet Nevuwari (26) het Dinsdag hier in die Louis Trichardt Distrikshof verskyn op klagte van roof met verswarende omstandighede. Mbedzi was die een wat swaar gewond is deur mnr. Piet Lourens tydens die rooftog. ‘n Derde rower is

nog steeds op vrye voet. Dié verdagte is glo ‘n Zimbabwiër en daar word vermoed dat hy reeds oor die grens na sy tuisland gevlug het. Lourens het op Sondag, 26 Januarie, vier rowers in hulle spore gestuit toe hulle hom en sy vrou, Tillie, probeer beroof het. Een rower, wat met ‘n 9mm-pistool gewapen was, is deur Piet geskiet en is op die toneel dood, terwyl Mbedzi gewond is. Hy is kort ná die aanval gearresteer.

Die rower wat dood is op die toneel het homself en sy drie makkers se name gegee aan die polisie. Na wat verneem word was hierdie bende verantwoordelik vir talle mesaanvalle in die Levubu-area. Die naam van die rower wat dood is, is nog nie deur die polisie bekend gemaak nie. Mbedzi en Nevuwari sal in aanhouding bly tot hul volgende hofverskyning op 14 Februarie. Hulle sal dan na verwagting ‘n borgaansoek bring.

Local author releases love story with a twist

A tale of two sparrows is a beautiful, humorous love story from the pen of a retired professor and zoologist from Makhado (Louis Trichardt), Dr Jacques van Heerden (right). With him is his dearly loved wife, Elza, holding a copy of the book, which was published by AuthorHouse UK in January.

“A tale of two sparrows” was illustrated by two 14- year-old girls, Yani Steyn (left), from Makhado (Louis Trichardt), the eldest child of Koos and Riekie Steyn, and her cousin, Jo Spoelstra (right). Photos supplied.

A beautiful and quaint love story is always ap pealing, and so much more so if it is speckled with humour and the main characters are two sparrows. A retired professor and zoologist of Makhado (Louis Trichardt), Dr Jacques van Heerden, has surprised with a romantic story from his pen, published in January by AuthorHouse in the United Kingdom. With humour and a delicate touch the author explores the meaning of life through the eyes of the sparrow, called Billy. He adores his wife, Sally, who always seems to understand the big English words some other bird species use and brings perspective on issues, her wisdom imparted with love and humility. They raise their children, whom they have given grand, long names, so that they can “live up to their names”. They interact with the community of birds, some friends, some foes, some giving the impression that they are high flyers. The reader finds that birds are not unlike humans (called “hue-mans” by Billy), and they have similar trials and tribulations, albeit in different forms. To experience the full extent of their experiences and how it all ends, our readers will have to read the book. When asked whether his zoology background had any bearing on the story, the author laughed and said “No, rather my marriage of 44 years to my darling wife, Elza. I identify with Billy and Elza is Sally. Of course, I hope nobody throws a stone at her,” Jacques adds with a twinkle in his eye. AuthorHouse publishers told Jacques that his love story among the feathered friends has real potential for an animation film. “But they said I have to produce R64 000 to have it screen written. So, for now, we shall stick to the book,” Jacques said. “It is a very relaxing book to read. Still, there is a message and it is not superficial. Jacques’s fine sense of humour shines through,” says Elza. Because of the numerous puns on English words, the book will not be translated into Afrikaans,

which is Jacques’s mother tongue. The cover page was illustrated by Jacques’s sister, Wannia Marais. The illustrations inside were done by two 14-year old girls,Yani Steyn, the eldest child of Koos and Riekie Steyn of Makhado (Louis Trichardt) and Yani’s cousin, Jo Spoelstra. The title is an association with the famous novel A tale of two cities by Charles Dickens. Young readers will also enjoy the book, as the 14-yearolds did who read the book before illustrating it. “It was such a pleasure to write this story. Perhaps I will pursue writing other humorous stuff as well, when the inspiration comes,” said Jacques. Out of his pen has also come Skepping en evolusie in Afrikaans, which will soon be available in English. A tale of two sparrows indeed makes for a delightful read for young and old. This 102-page soft-cover book (ISBN: 9781491890806) can be obtained via the internet from AuthorHouse or Amazon, as well as at major book stores such as Exclusive Books and CNA and will be showcased at the publishing house’s London book show in April this year.

Pastors Forum meet The Soutpansberg Pastors Forum officially commenced their weekly forum meetings with a prayer breakfast last Tuesday morning at the Purple Olive restaurant, after having ended off last year with a similar meeting. Pastor Andries van Heerden surprised members by sponsoring the breakfast for all. Members were accompanied by their wives. All members were impressed with the pleasant get-together and are seriously considering the possibility of arranging more frequent such prayer breakfast meetings throughout the new year.

The way to Leshiba passes by one of two Vulture communities that enjoy international attention – and really sets the mood for the Leshiba experience! What is even more incredible is that the Lodge is located less than 50 km away from Louis Trichardt!

The rock art found on Leshiba include both Khoi and San rock art, and covers a period in history of between 200 and 200 years. It appears that the Khoi and San people considered the Soutpansberg to be a very spiritual place, and due to the vast plant diversity it was a place where many medicinal herbs were gathered and dried for future use.

‘n Munisipale rioolpyp tussen Douthwait en Kleynhansstraat in Makhado (Louis Trichardt) is so verstop dat niemand kans sien om daaraan te werk nie. Dié lyn, wat deur die erf van mnr. Kokkie de Kock van Kleynhansstraat 65 loop, het meer as ‘n jaar gelede verstop geraak. Dit verstopping het nou so erg geraak dat dit sowat twee weke gelede begin oorborrel het in die bure se erf in Douthwaitstraat. Mnr. Louis Gossman, eienaar van Douthwaitstraat 68, moes noodgedwonge self inspring om plan te sien met die drein wat tot oorlopens toe verstop was. Hy het tans huurders wat in die huis bly. Die oorsaak van die verstopping het volgens Gossman by De Kock se erf begin. Die munisipaliteit is uitgeroep om die verstopping reg te maak, en daarby het dit gebly. Volgens De Kock het die munisipaliteit nog een of twee keer uitgekom om aan die lyn te werk, maar

hy het tot op hede nog nie weer besoek ontvang van hulle nie. Stange wat die munisipaliteit se span gebruik het om die verstopping mee oop te maak, is net so op De Kock se erf gelos. Een is in die oopgegrawe gat gelos om op te roes. De Kock vertel hy moes maar self plan maak om die gat wat die munisipaliteit gegrawe het toe te maak sodat iemand nie daarin val nie. Steeds het die verstopping by die dag vererger en dit het De Kock al baie geld uit die sak gejaag om die probleem self te probeer herstel. Die situasie rondom die rioollyn is ook, volgens De Kock, male sonder tal aangemeld by die munisipaliteit. Vrae rondom die probleem is deur die Zoutpansberger aan die Makhado Munisipaliteit gerig en die munisipale woordvoerder, mnr. Louis Bobodi, het vandeesweek bevestig dat daaraan aandag gegee sal word. Hy het ontken dat die lyn al vir meer as ‘n jaar probleme gee.

Mnr. Louis Gossman hou die stang vas wat glo deur munispale werkers gelos is om te verroes in ‘n rioollyn wat oopgegrawe is, maar nooit reggemaak is nie.

Avo symposium

Elections could be dangerous for you … Illegal election posters, appealing to registered voters to “Vote ANC”, have been popping up all over Makhado (Louis Trichardt) on traffic signs. It is illegal to put advertising on traffic signs, because it could obscure motorists’ view or distract their attention. The matter has been brought to the attention of the Makhado Municipality, but in the course of two weeks no apparent law enforcement has taken place. Spokesperson for the municipality Mr Louis Bobodi confirmed that political parties currently advertising in town have paid an advertising fee. The “allegation of having attached the posters on the road signs” will be investigated,’’ he said, and the “necessary decision will be taken within the framework of the prescripts.” Photo supplied.

Brief

“Dankie aan ER24 Thohoyandou vir julle goeie diens en vriendelikheid”

raag wil ons as gesin vir ER24 in Thohoyandou baie dankie sê vir hulle uiters professionele en vriendelike diens op Saterdag, 1 Februarie. My ma van 93-jaar het vroegoggend aan huis by ons in Makhado (Louis Trichardt) geval en haar heup gebreek. Ons moes self reël vir ‘n ambulans om my ma na die hospitaal in Polokwane te neem. Einde ten laaste was ER24 van Thohoyandou bereid om te help, en was ons aangenaam verras! Binne ‘n uur ná my oproep aan hulle was hulle, vanaf Thohoyandou, by my huis. Hulle diens en optrede was van hoogstaande gehalte. Hulle was professioneel, goed opgelei en die ambulans was ten volle toegerus. Die personeel het alles getoets, tot my ma se suiker, voordat hulle haar versigtig ingelaai het. Hulle het noukeurig die uitslag van al hulle toetse neergepen en sou dit later by die hospitaal inhandig,

sodat die hospitaal nie nodig gehad het om enige verdere toetse soos haar bloeddruk te neem nie. Dit was soos die top ambulansdienste wat mens op televisie sien, en ek kan eerlik sê ek het nog nooit sulke goeie diens ervaar nie. Klein dingetjies, soos om oor te slaan na Afrikaans toe hulle hoor ons praat Afrikaans, en selfs die radio oor te skakel na die Afrikaanse kanaal in die ambulans. My ma is dieselfde dag nog geopereer deur dr. Org van Zyl en is reeds weer op die been. Baie dankie, ER24 Thohoyandou en personeel. Ons as familie waardeer werklik julle goeie diens. Dankie ook dr. Casper Venter vir u hulp en dr. Van Zyl vir die geslaagde operasie. Jan en Anita Bouwer (Makha do / Louis Trichardt)

Die Weg, die Waarheid en die Lewe

Hebreërs 2:14-18

ikwels sê mense: “ek weet hoe jy voel,” maar het nie ‘n idee wat in die ander persoon se binneste omgaan nie. Spreuke 14:10 sê: “Net die mens self ken die bitterheid van sy eie gemoed en ook in sy vreugde kan niemand anders voluit deel nie.” Die gedeelte van vandag leer ons van ons Hoë Priester, Jesus Christus, wat werklik verstaan en weet van al ons moeilikhede, probleme en teleurstellings. Daarom kan ons in gebed na Hom gaan en ons harte voor Hom uitstort, want Hy verstaan. Jesus het nooit sonde gedoen nie, maar Hy is versoek. Hy het pyn ervaar, asook die dood, en weet hoe dit voel om deur vriende verlaat te word. As die offer vir ons sondes het Hy ook die toorn van God die Vader ervaar. Dit is die wonderlike waarheid vir almal wat vir Jesus lief het as hulle Saligmaker: Jesus weet hoe jy voel want Hy het ervaar wat jy nou deurmaak. Gaan met nederige vrymoedigheid na Hom en vertel Hom presies hoe jy voel. Vertel Hom van jou vreugdes en hartseer. Onthou altyd jy bid nie alleen nie. Romeine 8:34b: “Hy sit aan die regterhand van God, Hy pleit vir ons.” 079 5168303

Karatenuus

Braambos lewer nog ‘n swart gordel karateka Die Braambos Karateklub op LMB Makhado het nog ‘n swart gordel karateka opgelewer. Curtley Denkewitz gradeer op 9 November na sy 1ste Dan swart gordel tydens ‘n provinsiale gradering in Bela Bela, wat waargeneem is deur sensei Johan Roets, president van SA JKA. Curtley begin in 2005 met JKA karate onder leiding van sensei Andrea Pretorius. Van 2005 tot 2013 verteenwoordig hy sy klub en provinsie op

provinsiale en nasionale kampioenskappe. In 2009 word hy gekies om aan die wêreldkampioenskappe deel te neem, waar hy ‘n goue medalje inpalm in kumité en ‘n vierdeplek in kata. Dieselfde jaar wen hy ook twee goue medaljes in kata en kumité tydens die Limpopo JKA kampioenskappe. Die jaar 2010 was vir hom ook ‘n groot jaar toe hy gradeer na sy junior swart gordel. Curtley neem ook daardie jaar deel aan die JKA SA kampioenskap en wen ‘n silwer medalje in kumité uit ‘n groep van 21 in sy ouderdomsgroep. Slegs twee weke later neem hy deel aan die Limpopo Alle Style kampioenskap en verower twee goue medaljes in kata en kumité, waarna hy die provinsie verteenwoordig teen Gauteng Noord en Gauteng Wes. Hier wen hy ook twee goue medaljes vir kata en kumité. Ook by die Limpopo JKA kampioenskap doen hy goed in beide dissiplines en ontvang vir die negende keer die klub se trofee vir Beste Algehele Student. Hy word ook vir die sewende agtereenvolgende jaar aangewys as LMB Makhado se Junior Sportseun van die Jaar. In 2013 neem Curtley deel aan die JKA SA kampioenskap en verower ‘n silwer medalje vir kumité uit ‘n groep van 34 in sy ouderdomsgroep. Hy wen ook twee goue medaljes met die 2013 Limpopo Alle Style kampioenskap. Die gradering na 1ste Dan swart gordel is ‘n hoogtepunt in sy karateloopbaan wat hy moes aflê met geskeurde kruisligamente in sy knie. Dit was nie maklik nie, maar hy het deurgedruk. “Na soveel jare se harde werk, opofferings en strawwe oefening het hy net nie kans gesien om die groot geleentheid waarvoor elke karateka werk, te laat verby gaan nie,” sê die klub se sensei, Andrea Pretorius. Sy sê dit is altyd lekker om haar studente te sien presteer.

Die Louis Trichardt Rolbalklub het die afgelope naweek hulle Specsavers Pro 10 wenners bepaal. Die Specsavers Pro 10-toernooi is ‘n nuwe formaat parekompetisie wat nasionaal geborg word deur Specsavers. Elke distrik sal ‘n wenner en naaswenner na die nasionale toernooi in Port Elizabeth stuur in September, waar hulle om ‘n prysgeld van R32 000 sal meeding. Limpopo se finale rondte vind in Maart in Polokwane plaas en die 14 klubwenners vanuit die provinsie sal hier deelneem om ‘n prysgeld van R 5 500, asook ‘n plek in die nasionale toernooi. Louis Trichardt se wenners is die pa en seun span van Carel Volschenk senior en junior. In die foto verskyn hulle saam met mede klublede. Van links na regs is Carel Volschenk (jnr.), Poen de Bruin, Bernard Volschenk, Francois Hanekom, Carel Volschenk (snr.), Sanrie du Plessis (Specsavers) en Ben Groenewald. Persone wat belangstel om by die klub se aktiwiteite betrokke te raak, kan vir Ben skakel by 084 505 3663, of Kittie de Bruin by 082 856 9047.

Hierdie lede van die Soutpansberg Kofukan Karateklub van Makhado (Louis Trichardt) en Musina is gekies vir deelname aan die nasionale Alle Style Karatekampioenskappe as deel van die Verre-Noord span.
