Misdadigers bedrywig Deur Andries van Zyl

Dit wil voorkom asof daar ook weer ‘n groep mense is wat voertuie se wiele af steel waar hulle oornag by wonings buite geparkeer staan. Dit was die geval Woensdagoggend toe ‘n inwoner van Indaba woonstelle in die nuwe uitbreiding opgemerk het dat iemand deur die aand sy bakkie se agterwiele afgesteel het. Hulle het sommer sy eie plaveisel gebruik om onder sy voertuig te pak om die wiele af te kry. Foto verskaf.

‘n Plaasaanval in die Legkraal-omgewing (Bandelierkop) op Woensdagoggend het weereens die belangrikheid beklemtoon van mense in veral landelike gebiede om paraat te wees weens ‘n drastiese styging in misdaad te midde van die Covid-19 pandemie. Dié aanval is egter slegs een van talle misdade in die Soutpansberg streek die afgelope week.

Die 62-jarige plaasboer en sy 58-jarige vrou is tussen 01:00 en 02:00 op 5 Augustus op hul plaas deur ‘n groep gewapende mans oorval.

“Ons het omstreeks 01:40 die noodroep oor ons radio’s ontvang,” het mnr. Jan du Toit, veiligheidsvoorsitter van die Legkraal-omgewing, ure ná die aanval aan die Zoutpansberger gesê. Hy het die aard van die plaasboer se beserings as brutaal beskryf.

Die man het erge kopbeserings opgedoen, nadat sy kop na bewering herhaaldelik teen ‘n muur geslaan is. Sy vrou is op haar beurt in die regterbeen geskiet. Beide is deurgejaag hospitaal toe in Polokwane vir mediese behandeling, met die man wat in ‘n bedenklike toestand opgeneem is.

Te midde van die trauma was daar darem ‘n bietjie goeie nuus gewees – die aanvallers is binne ure ná die aanval aangekeer.

Volgens provinsiale polisiewoordvoerder Brigadier Motlafela Mojapelo is drie mans deur lede van die polisie se blitspatrollie aangekeer nadat hulle inligting ontvang het dat die verdagtes die egpaar se Nissan Navara bestuur wat tydens die aanval geroof is. Die voertuig is opgemerk op die Matlala-pad, wat gelei het tot ‘n jaagtog tussen die polisie en die verdagtes. Die verdagtes is uiteindelik in ‘n hoek gedryf op die N1 suid buite Polokwane.

Twee verdagtes is op die toneel gearresteer, terwyl ‘n derde gevlug het. Dié is later gewond toe hy op die polisie begin skiet het en hulle teruggeskiet het. Teen druktyd was teenstrydige berigte gewees of die gewonde verdagte nog lewe of dood is. Volgens die polisieverklaring het hy

nog gelewe.

Mojapelo het bevestig dat die polisie twee gewere, ‘n televisie, ‘n tweerigting radio en die egpaar se bakkie herwin het ná die arrestasie.

Buiten hiervoor is die verdagtes ook in besit betrap van vyf ongelisensieerde pistole. Mojapelo het gesê dat die verdagtes van huisroof en verkragting aangekla gaan word, nadat dit geblyk het dat die 58-jarige vrou ook verkrag is (om hierdie rede weerhou die koerant hul name).

Nader aan die huis is die 68-jarige Annette Bezuidenhout Sondag omstreeks 12:00 deur twee

mans in die munisipale begraafplaas op Louis Trichardt oorval en beroof. Sy was daar op besoek aan haar seun, Charl, se graf. Baie lesers sal onthou van die hartseer waardeur die familie gegaan het nadat hierdie belowende jong sportman van die Soutpansberg op 19-jarige ouderdom in April 2002 tydens ‘n gewapende roof doodgeskiet is.

Annette het vertel hoe sy sowat 20 treë vanaf haar seun se graf in die koelte parkeer het. By haar seun se graf het sy egter gesien die blomme daarop was bietjie droog en het begin terug stap motor toe om water te kry. (Vervolg op p. 2)

Geen wagte doen meer diens by die begraafplaas nie, en van die betonheining wat veronderstel is om booswigte buite hou, bly daar nie veel oor nie. Die munisipaliteit het daarom in hul begro­ ting vir die komende finansiële jaar R4,8 miljoen begroot vir ‘n nuwe heining.

Inwoners gevra om paraat te wees te midde van toename in misdaad (Vervolg van p. 1) “Op pad terug na my kar toe het ek omgekyk en skielik twee mans agter my gesien. Ek het probeer om vinnig terug te kom by my kar, maar hulle was voor my daar,” het Annette gesê. Sy het gesê sy het hulle glad nie opgemerk toe sy ingery het nie en vermoed hulle het doelbewus weggekruip. “Ek het die heel tyd rondgekyk en niks gesien nie,” het Annette gesê.

Die een man het Annette van agter om haar keel en voorkop gegryp. “Ek het nooit gedink dat sou iets my sou oorkom nie. En kon nie help om te dink aan Charl toe hy ook beroof is nie,” het Annette gesê.

Beide mans het dadelik begin om Annette se sakke te deursoek. Sy sê die een was baie aggressief, terwyl die ander een kalmer was. Sy het egter net haar selfoon by haar gehad. “Toe sê hulle ek moet die kar oopsluit, want hulle soek geld,” het Annette gesê.

Sy wou aanvanklik nie haar motor oopsluit nie, want sy was bang hulle steel hom. “Maar ek het oopgesluit en toe gryp die een my handsak.

Die ander een het die sak met my middagete

gegryp wat ‘n vriendin vir my ingepak het,” het Annette vertel.

Haar situasie het daarna vererger.

In die gespook het Annette op die grond geval.

Dit was toe dat die een wat haar selfoon gevat het, nader staan. “Toe moes ek keer, want toe is hy hier by my broek. Hy wou my broek aftrek.

Toe gebruik ek my kop en sê vir hom: ‘My husband is on his way’,” het Annette gesê en gemeld dat beide Engels gepraat het.

Dit was toe dat dit vir Annette gelyk het of hulle begin haastig raak. “Dit is toe dat ek vir hulle gevra het om asseblief net my kaarte te los.

Hulle kan my geld vat, maar nie die kaarte nie,” het Annette gesê. Die minder aggressiewe man het toe haar handsak se inhoud op die grond uitgegooi en haar beursie leeggemaak. Dit het maar sowat R200 bevat. “Toe kom die meer aggressiewe een en skeur my handsak in stukke,” het Annette gesê.

Die mans het kort daarna gevlug. “Ek het toe maar my goedjies opgetel,” het Annette gesê.

Annette het die aanval by die polisiestasie aangemeld. “Daar het hulle my gevra om asse-

Soutpansberg se oom Willie Roux vier negentig baie geseënde jare Deur Pétria de Vaal Oom Willie Roux het geen bekendstelling in die Soutpansberg en omstreke nodig nie.

Op 1 Augustus het hy die mylpaal van 90 geseënde jare bereik.

Oom Willie is ‘n man wat diep spore getrap het in die wildbedryf in Suid-Afrika. Hy het wildveilings tot stand gebring, met die eerste een in Suid-Afrika wat in 1974 op Hoedspruit aangebied is.

Oom Willie en tannie Sophia Roux op oom Willie se 90ste verjaardag op 1 Augustus.

Sy kinderjare het hy op ‘n wynplaas in die Worcester-omgewing deurgebring. Met ‘n landboukwalifikasie in die hand het hy paaie gekruis met veeboerdery asook tamatieboerdery. In hierdie verband het hy baie by die ZZ2 tamatie-reus, Bertie van Zyl, geleer. In 1964 het hy as bemarkingsbeampte by Vleissentraal in die Komatipoort-omgewing begin werk. In 1970 is hy as afslaer en assistent-bestuurder op Louis Trichardt aangestel. In 1973 is hy bevorder tot bestuurder van Vleissentraal Bosveld en in 1993 het hy amptelik “afgetree”.

Oom Willie se belangstelling in en respek vir afslaers het reeds op skool ontwikkel. Hy het vroeg in sy lewe besef dat ‘n suksesvolle afslaer mense se belangstelling met ‘n paar kort woorde moet kan prikkel. “’n Afslaer moet kan práát,” sê oom Willie. ‘n Ander baie belangrike vereiste vir ‘n afslaer is dat hy iemand moet wees wat kan bemark en verkoop.

“Dit help ook as jy jou kopers ken,” voeg oom Willie by.

Diegene wat al by oom Willie se veilings was, kan getuig van sy vaardighede en professionaliteit in dié bedryf – iets waarmee hy nog lank ná sy aftrede doenig was.

Met tannie Sophia aan sy sy, is oom Willie voorwaar geseënd om hierdie hoë ouderdom te bereik. Dit loop egter ook in die gene: Oom Willie se oorlede pa, ‘n wynboer van Worcester, het self meer as 90 jaar oud geword.

Volgens oom Willie se kinders is hy ‘n rustige mens en baie geliefd - ‘n ware heer. “Die feit dat hy geen kwaad in sy hart het nie, maak dat hy alles op ‘n vreedsame, rustige manier aanpak en oplos. Sy geheue is ook verstommend. Hy herinner ons gedurig aan iemand se verjaardag,” sê sy seun Hanno.

Hy wou nie ‘n groot verjaardagviering hê nie en het die dag rustig tuis deurgebring.

blief mense wat ook by die begraafplaas aangeval en beroof word, aan te raai om die voorval te rapporteer. Dit sal vir hulle dit makliker maak om mense uit te ken indien hulle iemand arresteer,” het Annette gesê.

Vir Annette was die aanval egter een te veel.

Toe die Zoutpansberger Dinsdag met haar gepraat het, was sy op pad om vir haar ander seun, Theo, te gaan kuier. “So een maal ‘n week of elke twee weke wou ek altyd bietjie by Charl se graf gaan kuier. Maar dit is nou die laaste, Ek sal nie weer kan gaan nie,” het Annette gesê. Sy is dankbaar sy het nie ernstig seergekry nie. Sy het inwoners aangeraai om onder geen omstandighede ooit alleen begraafplaas toe te gaan nie.

Annette was blykbaar nie die enigste slagoffer van ‘n roof by die begraafplaas nie. Na wat verneem word is twee mense ook verlede Vrydag by die begraafplaas oorrompel en beroof toe hulle besoek gebring het aan die Indiër-begraafplaas.

Die veiligheid van besoekers aan die begraaf-

plaas is in die verlede herhaaldelik onder die aandag van die Makhado Munisipali­teit gebring.

Geen wagte doen meer diens by die begraafplaas nie en van die betonheining wat veronderstel is om booswigte buite hou, bly daar nie veel oor nie. Die munisipaliteit het daarom in hul begroting vir die komende finansiële jaar R4,8 miljoen begroot vir ‘n nuwe heining.

Buiten vir die rooftogte het heelwat diefstalle ook voorgekom. Dit wil voorkom asof daar ook weer ‘n groep mense is wat voertuie se wiele steel waar hulle oornag by wonings buite geparkeer staan. Dit was die geval Woensdagoggend toe ‘n inwoner van Indaba woonstelle in die nuwe uitbreiding opgemerk het dat iemand deur die aand sy bakkie se agterwiele verwyder het. Hulle het sommer sy eie plaveisel gebruik om onder sy voertuig te pak om die wiele af te kry.

Die plaaslike polisie is vir kommentaar gevra oor die skynbare styging is misdaad in die dorp, maar teen druktyd is geen terugvoer ontvang nie.

Court declares security company director delinquent

By Anton van Zyl In one of the first cases of its kind to be heard in the Limpopo High Court, a director of a well-known security company has been declared a delinquent director. This effectively means that the court found that the person is not fit to serve as a director of any company.

The case stems from a dispute between the two directors of a security company, DRS Thohoyandou (Pty) Ltd. The company was started

by Ronald Walter Sparrow (Ron) and Dion Svoboda and operated mainly in the Thohoyandou, Giyani, and Malamulele area. Svoboda seemingly provided the start-up capital, but Sparrow oversaw the operational part of the business.

According to court papers, Sparrow extended the business to the Kremetart Residential Community in Giyani in July 2018, and 74 families signed on. Alarm systems were installed at the houses and the residents started paying their monthly fees. The only snag was that the money was not paid into the company’s bank account.

Instead, Sparrow supplied his own personal bank account number where money was to be deposited. Residents also did not receive receipts from the company but were requested to send proof of payment to “an Indian spaza shop” (as is indicated in court papers).

When Svoboda found out about the arrangements, he was justifiably upset. Sparrow’s bank account was also used to pay for his personal expenses, and even his credit-card instalments and monthly loan repayments were deducted from this account. The company did not, however, transfer the money owed to Svoboda.

In court, Sparrow argued that he had used his own bank account as a type of “trust account” and he had had the intention to pay any profits into the company’s bank account. He told the court that he had asked Svoboda on numerous occasions to buy vehicles and equipment for the business, but these requests “fell on deaf ears”. Sparrow tried to convince the court that the company was experiencing serious cashflow problems and he had to do something to ensure that the company met its obligations to its clients.

One crucial error that Sparrow seemed to have made was to keep all this information from his business partner and co-director. “I know if I were to tell him of the ‘plan’ he would not have agreed to it,” he stated in his answering affidavit.

When the facts eventually emerged, Sparrow was suspended by DRS Thohoyandou on 11 December 2018. The two were at loggerheads and the relationship of trust that should exist between directors was clearly gone. Svoboda then

turned to the court to have his former partner declared a delinquent director.

More than a year went by before the case was heard, but in January this year, judge EM Makgoba ruled in favour of Svoboda and declared Sparrow a delinquent director. “(Sparrow’s) conduct falls short of the standard expected of a director … to such an extent that it amounts to wilful misconduct, breach of trust, and a gross abuse of his position as a director,” Makgoba said.

The judge emphasized the responsibilities that the Companies Act places on directors. These responsibilities include that a director should always act in the best interests of the company and may not act in self-interest. Directors must communicate properly and may not withhold important information from co-directors. If a court finds that a director has grossly abused his position and takes personal advantage of information or opportunities in the company, such a director must be declared a delinquent director.

Makgoba pointed out that Sparrow had knowingly acted without having the authority to do so. He regarded the action of Sparrow to have the money paid into his personal bank account as wilful misconduct and a breach of trust.

Even though the relationship between the two directors was strained, Makgoba said Sparrow

was nevertheless legally bound as a director “to discharge his duties in the same manner had the relationship between them been normal”. He said even if Svoboda had also acted in dereliction of his duties (which was denied), this did not absolve Sparrow from carrying out his duties.

“The effect of a declaration of a person as a delinquent director is that he is thereupon disqualified, for so long as the declaration remains in force, from being a director of any company,” Makgoba explained.

Sparrow’s attempt to fight back and file a counter-application to have the company liquidated did not work either. The judge reckoned the solution would not be to wind up the company; he was of the opinion the individual wrongdoers should be acted against. “The effective remedy in the circumstances is therefore a delinquency order and not a winding-up order,” he said.

Sparrow was ordered to pay the cost of the application on a scale as between attorney and client.

The order of Judge Makgoba went on appeal but was first denied by the Limpopo High Court on 11 February 2020. Sparrow’s legal team then appealed directly to the Supreme Court of Appeal, but this appeal was also turned down on 14 July.

Buys community legend passes away In Memoriam The Soutpansberg suffered a great loss with the death of Mr Simeon Buys of Buysdorp.

Simeon passed away on 28 July at the age of 81 years. “The Buys community of Buysdorp has lost a man of quality, com-

The late Mr Simeon Buys (81).

passion, and great leadership.

He had by then already served, intermittently, many years in the Buys Management Committee (BMC). Aided by his wife, he was a horticulturist by which he could earn an income.

I knew him to be up and about at 03:00,” said life-long friend Alexander Smail.

Smail said he had served under Oom Simeon (as he was affectionately known) as vice-chairperson of the BMC from July 2002 until December 2009.

“This was a trying time for the committee, with all the problems left behind by the outgoing committee. There were no funds to work with, land claims were coming in, division in the community, and many other problems. This was indeed a time when we needed strong leadership. We HAD SIMEON as our leader; what a leader! what leadership! He put us on a course of hard and

difficult work, of which I bore the brunt! What a slave driver!

The man was indefatigable,” said Smail. He added that Oom Simeon calmly led them. “…and one by one we overcame the problems afore mentioned.”

The late Simeon Buys had a “boere matric” (Standard 6).

“Se voet, I say! He was better than many matriculants of today in his capacity as a leader; a stickler for punctuality, correctness of financial records; in just about everything under his administration. He was driven by his love for the community and the Buys farms. One gets to know the real person when the chips are down. This revelation of the man earned my great respect and loyalty,” said Smail.

Simeon was laid to rest on Saturday, 1 August, at the community cemetery in Buysdorp.

“Thank you, Simeon, for the experience we acquired from your example. Rest in peace,” said Smail.

Ek is ... die Weg, die Waarheid en die lewe “En die manne het hulle verwonder en gesê: Wat vir ‘n mens is Hy, dat selfs die winde en die see Hom gehoorsaam is?”

Mattheus 8:27. y is die Woord, die Alfa en die Omega, en is nie aan tyd gebonde nie. Hy was daar toe God deur die magtige Woord net gespreek het om alles te skape.

Hy wat Is, die mensgeworde Woord, het gekom, soos ons al weet, om tussen ons, in die gestalte van ‘n mens op die aarde te kom woon. Hy is die Woord, die Lewe. In Hom was daar lewe. Elkeen wat deur Hom lewe, ken Hom as die lig. “Die lig skyn in die duisternis en die duisternis het dit nie oorweldig nie” (Johannes 1:5).

Johannes sê hulle het Hom gehoor, met hulle oë gesien en met hulle hande aange­ raak, selfs ná sy opstanding uit die dood toe Hy gesê het: “voel aan My en kyk… (Lukas 24:39). Hy het net gespreek om te skape, maar Hy moes bloei om verlorenes te kom red.

Voordat Hy die ewige lewe vir ons kon waarborg, moes Hy self eers die dood smaak en oorwin. “Moenie vrees nie, Ek is die eerste en die laaste, en die Lewende; en Ek was dood en kyk, ek leef tot in alle ewigheid.

Amen. En Ek het die sleutels van die doderyk en van die dood” (Openbaring 1:17,18) “… en ons verkondig aan julle die ewige lewe wat by die Vader was en aan ons geopenbaar is” (1 Johannes 1:2) Die Heilige Gees sê iets wonderliks: “Christus in julle … die hoop van die heer­ likheid”. Ver beter as Christus by julle.

Bertie het die saak by die polisie aangemeld, maar teen Dinsdag was daar nog geen positiewe nuus gewees nie. Dit is slegte nuus vir hom, want sy ma het nie versekering op die voertuig gehad nie. “Ek het nog nie dat ‘n paneelklopper na die skade kyk nie. Die linkerkant is plat en ek dink die onderstel is ook gebuig, so mens kan maar

aanvaar die voertuig is afgeskryf,” het Bertie gesê.

Bertie wil dus graag uitvind wie die bestuurder van die bakkie was, sodat daardie persoon kan pa staan vir die skade. “Ek weet nie hoekom die bestuurder van die bakkie en die ander kar by die kruising nie gestop het nie. Dit lyk my hulle gee net nie om nie,” het Bertie gesê.

Persone wat vir Bertie-hulle kan help om die skuldige persoon op te spoor, word versoek om Bertie dringend te skakel by tel. 066 257 7150.

“Iemand moet weet wie die persoon is, of daar is iemand wat gevra is om die voertuig te herstel,” het Bertie gesê.

Inwoners word gevra om te help soek na die bestuurder van ‘n wit Nissan NP200 bakkie wat verlede week ‘n ongeluk veroorsaak het en bloot van die toneel af weggery het.

Die 35-jarige Bertie Weber het saam met sy vrou en twee jong kinders op 1 April vanaf Port Alfred in die Oos Kaap na Louis Trichardt verhuis. Vir hulle was dit ‘n kans om nader aan hulle families te wees.

Bertie is werksaam by NTK in die industriële gebied. Verlede Dinsdag, 28 Julie, het aangebreek soos enige ander dag. Hy het opgestaan en reggemaak om werk toe te ry vanaf hul huis in Presidentstraat. Al wat anders was daardie oggend, was dat hy te midde van die lekker reënweer, besluit het om eerder met sy ma se kar, ‘n Opel Meriva, te ry. “Vir watter rede weet ek nie,” het Bertie Dinsdag gesê. Gewoonlik sy hy met sy eie kar.

“Met die lockdown is my ma hier om na ons kinders te kyk, want die kleuterskole is toe. So, in die oggend kyk sy na die kinders, want my vrou werk halfdag,” het Bertie gesê.

Bertie se roete neem hom omtrent elke dag oor die kruising by President- en Songozwi­ straat. Hy sê hy het die voertuig gesien aankom teen hoë spoed. Dit was net na sesuur die oggend en die verkeerslig was egter groen vir Bertie gewees. “Ek het gedink hy gaan stop en toe trek ek weg … maar dit was nie die geval gewees nie,” het Bertie gesê.

Die aankomende bakkie het Bertie se voertuig vol op die passasierskant getref. “Ek was so uit soos ‘n kers gewees. Die sekuriteitswagte by Game moes my kom wakker maak.” Oomblikke Die skade aan Bertie Weber se ma se Opel Meriva. Die bestuurder van die wit Nissan NP200 later het Bertie onthou wat gebeur het. “Ek het vir hulle [die wagte] gevra waar is die ou?

ZOUTPANSBERGER, 7 AUGUST 2020

Bo: Die unieke en rare Duitse wynfles. Links bo: Die Italiaanse kis uit die tyd van Leonardo da Vinci.

Dié versameling voorwaar ‘n skatkis van unieke kosbaarhede Deur Pétria de Vaal Die Zoutpansberger het nog ‘n klompie skatte in die besit van ‘n familie in ons omgewing ontdek. Die familie wil hulle identiteit stil hou, om verstaanbare redes, aangesien hulle versa­ meling uit ‘n klompie rare en uiters kosbare artikels bestaan.

Met items wat oor eeue strek, is hierdie voorwaar ‘n besondere versameling. ‘n Unieke porseleinbak dateer uit die tydperk van die Ming-dinastie wat vir byna drie eeue (1368–1644) oor China regeer het. In daardie tyd is vloeibare glasuur gebruik – duidelik sigbaar op hierdie bak. Die bak is steeds in familiebesit en was saam op die Groot Trek.

Die vermoede bestaan dat die bak bekom is deur middel van handeldryf met die Ooste deur die Verenigde Oos-Indiese Kompanjie - aan die destydse Kaap. Die huidige eienaar vermoed dat hulle voorgeslagte waarskynlik nie eers besef het hoeveel hierdie porselein werd is nie. Die herinnering is sterk aan ‘n ouma wat permanent vrugteslaai hierin op ‘n tafel gehad het. Met bakkies en lepels byderhand, kon elkeen wat verbykom na hartelus skep en eet. ‘n Pragtige kis kom volgens oorlewe­ ring uit die tyd van Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519). ‘n Mooi verhaal het hierdie kis, of “kist” soos dit ook bekendstaan, in die familie se besit laat kom. ‘n Groot aantal Italiaanse krygsgevangenes is tydens die Tweede Wêreldoorlog in Noord-Afrika gevange geneem en na Suid-Afrika gebring. Sommige van hulle is uitgeplaas om op plase te werk.

Hulle is deurgaans baie goed deur die plaaseienaars behandel en het deel van die families geword. Vier van hierdie Italianers het op ‘n groottante se plaas in die Rustenburg-distrik beland.

Hulle was ui­ters hardwerkend. Ná die oorlog kon hulle terugkeer na Italië. Een van hulle het egter gevra of hy sy familie kon gaan haal en in Suid-Afrika kom woon, wat hy ook gedoen het. Die tante het hierdie familie bygestaan om hulle eie stukkie grond te bekom. Uit dankbaarheid het sy onder meer die kis as geskenk ontvang, asook ‘n ronde tafel met ses

stoele en ‘n “opsitbank”. Laasgenoem­de is ‘n S-vormige bankie waarop verliefdes kon kuier onder die wakende oog van ouers. Op hierdie bankie het die dame eenkant toe gekyk en die vryersklong anderkant toe! Die tante was getroud met ‘n tandarts uit Noorweë en was kinderloos. Haar suster se kleinkind (die groottante se naamgenoot) het die kis geërf. Jare later het die eienaar die res van die meubels toevallig by iemand plaaslik raakgeloop, wie se vermoënde familie dit aangekoop het en dit later na ‘n familielid in Engeland verskeep het. ‘n Stel kookpotte wat van egte silwer gemaak is, vang die oog. Hierdie kookpotte lyk meer na opskepbakke, so mooi is dit. Die potte is afkomstig uit Parys, Frankryk. Die silwer is met rooikoper oorgeblaas en die handvatsels is gemaak uit geelkoper. Hierdie stel is waarskynlik deel van ‘n spesifieke reeks, aangesien dit genommer is. Dit het saam met Europese familielede na Suid-Afrika gekom. ‘n Duitse wynfles het ‘n interessante storie: Die eienares het as klein dogtertjie in ‘n boom gesit en gesien hoe hulle bure oppak om te trek. Die bure was Duitsers wat van Duitsland via die ou Suidwes-Afrika na Suid-Afrika gekom en so ‘n entjie buite Rustenburg gebly het. Vir kinders was hierdie mense se leeuwyfie baie interessant om na te kyk – vandaar die boomklimmery. Die bure het verskeie items weggegooi op ‘n rommelhoop. Toe sy gewaar dat ‘n mooi wynfles, wat soos ‘n kruik lyk, ook

weggegooi is, het sy besluit om dit later te gaan haal.

Hierdie tipe flesse word ‘n “Bartmann” (baardman) fles genoem. Die sout-geglasuurde tipe keramiek is oorspronklik in die omgewing van Keulen in Duitsland gedurende die 16de en 17de eeu vervaardig. Tydens ‘n besoek aan ‘n museum in Duitsland is die familie ingelig dat die een op uitstalling die enigste oorblywende van sy soort is. Hulle kon met gemak noem dat ten minste twee nog bestaan – hulle besit die ander een! Later van tyd is tydens die drooglegging van die dokke by die Kaapse hawe nog een ontdek.

Hierdie fles het waarskynlik gedurende Van Riebeeck se tyd op plaaslike bodem aangekom. Diegene wat al die Paul Krugerhuis in Pretoria besoek het en wat al by Boe­kenhoutfontein naby Rustenburg was, sal kan sien dat twee stoele en ‘n riempiesbankie in die mense se besit beslis uit hierdie versameling dateer. Die familie is voorwaar gelukkig om hierdie items, asook ‘n meegaande voetstoeltjie van Paul Kruger, in hulle besit te hê. Die riempiesbankie is van tambotiehout gemaak. Alles is nog in ‘n puik toestand.

Te midde van onseker tye is kan mens gerus ‘n slag gaan kyk waar jy vandaan kom. Dit verskaf ‘n gevoel van genoegdoening wanneer skatte se stories afge­stof word en laat ‘n mens opnuut voel of jy êrens “behoort”.

“Now, in 2020, amid a global crisis - our top Jailbird has smashed the record! Even our second-place holder doubled his target! This could not have come at a better time. Our funds were dwindling, with all our major functions cancelled or postponed indefinitely,” said Gaigher.

This year, first place went to Anton Pretorius (who faced charges for lighting up the dance floor). He rounded up his fellow partygoers to collect an astonishing R15 900. The well-known Dr Casper Venter (the suspected

ringleader of a bicycle gang) assembled his troops and accrued R10 050 and in third place was Hanlie Nagel (suspected of orderly conduct) who raised R8 550.

Other contestants this year were Stanley Thompson (a suspected unicorn poacher) who brought in R7 870, followed by Greg Leach (suspected of falsifying his mother’s birth certificate) with R7 600, Team Ridgeway (Dionne Redfern and Jannie Le Roux - the selfie addicts) brough in R7 300, while Martin du Plessis (who busted a move) collected R5 900 towards his bail.

Dr Ida Glover (who let the dogs out?) collected R5 450 with Marina Joubert (who was suspected of organizing an unlawful protest in support of toilet paper hoarding) raising R5 100. Danie Pita (suspected of drunk dialling)

accrued R2 900, while Schalcha Loots & Vubi (the suspected identify swappers) collected R1090. Mariné Olwage (who was suspected of disguising a fugitive) made R1 000.

“This year’s earnings blew our minds. We were overjoyed to see the bank balance rising every morning when we logged in to track your progress! We really could never have guessed that a virtual Jailed and Bailed campaign would be even more successful than actually having our Jailbirds wait out their time in a kennel,” said Gaigher.

She expressed a heartfelt thank you to all of this year’s jailbirds and their supporters. “These generous donations will soon be hard at work to help us care for the destitute animals in our region,” said Gaigher.

He discusses with This week we move closer to home and trace people did to influence the history.

(This leads to property owners’ being pushed away from their land and they would naturally also come here. This may lead to unrest and fighting over land.)

Joubert explains the necessity of having the land properly demarcated, so that the government can ensure that native people are not suppressed. t “… dan zal het Gouvere e r St Joubert nement er dadelyk naar zien en … den overtreders strafe.” (The Government will then notice and act against the perpetrators).

The issue of land demarcation was contentious as Makhado again reiterated

that “all land was that of Ramabulana.” Historians like Nemudzhivhadi explain this by pointing out that the Vhavenda king does not own any land, as it belongs to his mahosi.

The king rules over the various chiefs and as such “all” land belongs to him as representative of the people. Makhado, however, was very concerned about the encroachment on the area in the valley below the mountain: “Nu weet ik zelf niet want vroeger was het geheele land Ramapoelanie zijn, maar een ding is zeker, ik wil niet onderste veld nich verliezen.” (Now I don’t know, because earlier all land was Ramabulana’s.

One thing I know is that I don’t want to lose the fields below.)

Following this meeting, Joubert came under more pressure not to allow Makhado’s request that such a vast area be demarcated for the Vhavenda.

In Boer circles it was felt that Makhado’s behaviour was sending the wrong signal to other indigenous groups and they feared a rebellion. Joubert’s compromise was to strengthen the Boer forces’ area by establishing movable steel forts. One of these was established at Muananzhele, on a farm called Boschkopjes. The fort was named after Joubert’s wife, Hendrina. During the Anglo Boer War period and a few years after, this fort was situated at the current Fort Edward and was also

called the same. The fort was later moved and today still stands next to the municipal library in Louis Trichardt.

At the same time, however, Makhado had to deal with much more dissent from within his own ranks and some of the mahosi under Makhado asked Joubert for protection against the thovhele.

Makhado, always an excellent strategist, realised that he was running out of options if he wanted to avoid a full-scale war.

He used several delaying tactics, such as asking Albasini to first demarcate Tshivhase and Mphaphuli’s territories.

Seeing that this article concerns Piet Joubert, we’ll have to jump past the events that occurred between 1887 and 1897.

Several very important things happened during this period, including the death of Makhado in 1895, but we may touch on them in other articles.

One event that cannot be omitted, is the visit of the Chief Native Commissioner from Matabeleland, Captain HJ Taylor, in 1889. This direct contact between the British and Makhado did not go down well with the Boer forces, who were growing more and more suspicious of the intentions of the British Empire. The subtle interference of the British continued during the reign of Mphephu.

Perhaps to conclude the story of Piet Joubert, we should move to the last battle of the ZAR before the start of the Anglo Boer War, namely the war against Mphephu.

This conflict was aptly described by the German missionary, R. Wessmann, when he said it was a short war that “to many Europeans has hitherto been a puzzle …”

When an ageing Piet Joubert was asked to travel north to the Soutpansberg in September 1898 to deal with the matter, he was clearly not enthusiastic about the trip. He left Pretoria on 6 October 1898 and a day later he stopped over in Potgietersrus (Mokopane) where he was joined by 200 burghers from Standerton. In a letter written to his wife, Drienie, he complains about the weather, which varied from sweltering heat to cold, misty rain.

eventually transpired that he had fled northwards, where he found refuge in the then Rhodesia.

The British South African police met Mphephu and roughly 2 400 of his followers at the river on the border and stopped the Boer forces from pursuing them any further.

Mphephu rather naively believed that the British forces would assist him in his fight against the Boer forces, but they (British) conveniently waited for it all to unfold from a safe distance.

On 8 December, the commandant-general made his way back to Pretoria. During a banquet held in his honour, Joubert expressed the wish that a town be established at the foot of the Soutpansberg mountains.

On 22 February 1899, the government published a proclamation stating that the new town would be called “Louis Trichardt”.

Joubert was a very religious man and, prior to the battle against Mphephu, he conducted nightly sermons. The night before the battle he made a vow that a church would be built on the terrain where the main laager had been situated. It was eventually left to his wife, Drienie, to make good on this promise, as the Anglo Boer War and his own death denied him this opportunity.

Drienie paid over 280 pounds to the Louis Trichardt congregation of the Nederduitse Hervormde of Gereformeerde Kerk.

After her death, another thousand pounds were left for this purpose. The first, affordable church building was erected in 1906. The building of the bigger, more majestic church, designed by well-known architect Gerard Moer­dijk, was eventually opened in 1926. The first church building served as hall and also a school hostel later on, until a tornado demolished the building in December 1948.

The town thus has a “living monument” to a rather remarkable, albeit often controversial, man. Up to his last battle, he seemed to have held out for as long as he could, believing that the good in men would eventually triumph.

This is not always the case and in some cases battles are necessary, and of course, a general to lead.

As far as the Milwaukee Journal’s claim that he was an American soldier is concerned – it is not only unlikely, but practically impossible. Is it a case of mistaken identity, or war propaganda? Perhaps the Milwaukee Journal should publish a retraction, albeit

Die hoofopskrif op die Zoutpansberger se voorblad van 11 Augustus 1995 het gelees “Nog ‘n slagoffer” in ‘n verhaal wat later sou ontvou as een van die streek se mees opspraakwekkende reeksmoordsake.

Op die Zoutpansberger se voorblad van 21 Julie 1995 is berig van hoe Sonia Lieben­ berg se verminkte liggaam op 15 Julie van daardie jaar deur twee mans naby die brug by die ingang van die ou Messinaweg in Louis Trichardt gevind is. ‘n Nadoodse ondersoek het aan die lig gebring dat Sonia wreed aangerand, gemartel en vermoedelik ook verkrag is, voordat sy vir dood langs die pad agtergelaat is. Sy is die vorige aand laas lewend gesien by die destydse Black Steers in die nou Songozwistraat.

Op 10 Augustus is nog ‘n jong vrou ernstig in die vroeë oggend­ ure aangerand, vermoedelik verkrag en vir dood agter gelaat.

Haar bewustelose liggaam is om­ streeks 07:00 in die bosse naby ‘n plaasingang sowat vier kilometer buite Louis Trichardt gevind. Sy is onmiddellik per ambulans na die Louis Trichardt Gedenkhos­ pitaal geneem, waarna sy enkele ure later oorgeplaas is na die destyds Ga­Rankuwa Hospital.

Teen druktyd daardie week in 1995 was die vrou se identiteit nog onbekend. Die vrou, wat later uitgeken sou word as die 21­jarige Lolla Breedt, sou egter aan haar beserings in die hospitaal beswyk.

Ook hierdie week, 25 jaar gelede, het ‘n interessante berig op bladsy 3 van die Zoutpansberger oor Louis Trichardt se “eerste spaza shop” op die hoek van Jeppe­ en Noordwesstraat verskyn. Dié winkeltjies was tot in daardie stadium sinoniem met die buite woongebiede en nie iets wat bekend was in die tradisioneel “wit” gebiede nie. Dié winkeltjie het inwoners behoorlik aan die gons gehad.

Voortaan sal BergCare in Louis Trichardt skenkings vir behoeftige gesinne nog makliker kan op- en aflaai, nadat hulle ‘n sleepwaentjie as skenking ontvang het. Dit nadat Lialize Bezuidenhout van Hot Dogz Grooming Parlor besluit het om haar sleepwaentjie, wat sy vir die oplaai en aflaai van honde gebruik het, vir die organisasie te skenk. Die sleepwaentjie het in onbruik verval, nadat Lialize weens ‘n besige werkskedule opgehou het met die open aflaaidiens. BergCare het hul opregte dank teenoor Lialize uitgespreek vir die ruimhartige gebaar.

Tshifhiwa Magodi, the CEO of the Matongoni company that runs the recycling company, said that “it is important for waste pickers to always have PPE available because some of the waste material deposited at the sites might be contaminated”.

Ms Magret Madzibedi, the longest-serving member and also site manager at the Makhado dump site, was very happy to receive the PPEs and food vouchers. “This makes our work safer now because we are in contact with a lot of waste that might be health hazards, especially during this Covid-19 period,” said Madzibedi.
