Community in shock after female train driver is attacked, possibly raped and then killed

Railway murder shock By Peter Muthambi

Makhado was rocked by a disturbing and tragic incident when a female train driver was possibly raped before she was brutally killed on Monday morning. Ms Nare Mashamaite (48) had apparently stopped at the Makhado station to check if the train had mechanical problems, after hearing a noise coming from the train. Shortly afterwards, she was allegedly first raped and then killed by an unknown man. Provincial police spokesperson Brigadier Hangwani Mulaudzi confirmed that Mashamaite was in the company of her assistant female driver when she was attacked. “They were inspecting the train’s carriages, one on each side, when the suspect grabbed and overpowered Ms Mashamaite,” he said. Mulaudzi said that the other woman fled the scene when she realised that something was wrong. The Makhado police were alerted and when they arrived at the scene, they discovered the body of the deceased next to the train. According to Mulaudzi, the deceased might have been strangled. The possibility that she was also raped is being investigated. No arrest had yet been made at the time of going to press. “A search for the suspect is currently underway,” Mulaudzi said. Mashamaite is a resident of Ha-

Matlala outside Polokwane. The deceased’s brother, Mr Duke Mashamaite, said on Tuesday that the family was very angry following the incident. “We want to express our extreme anger. We are shocked and devastated,” he said. Meanwhile, Makhado mayor, Cllr David Mutavhatsindi, expressed his condolences to the bereaved family. He said that the act was barbaric and inhumane. People who can provide information that can lead to the arrest of the suspect are advised to contact the detective commander of the Makhado police, Lt Col Nemavhola, at 082 451 7154 or at the detective’s standby Family members, police officers and Metro rail officers were photographed at the Makhado railway station where a train number at 082 319 9638. driver, Ms Nare Mashamaite, was allegedly raped and killed on Monday morning.

Randstene ‘n teer sakie Deur Linda van der Westhuizen ‘n Begin is gemaak met die randstene in Makhado se Munnikstraat, maar die wenkbroue lig reeds oor die groot gaping tussen die teer en die randstene, asook die hoogte van die randstene. “Hulle het so lank gevat met die randstene by ons ingang dat ons besigheid verloor het,” sê dr. Freddie Harris van die Blouberg Diereklinkiek. “Toe hulle die randstene uiteindelik insit, is dit so hoog dat die meeste voertuie nie kan inkom nie. Hulle het ‘n klomp grond op die sypaadjie

gegooi. Ons eie werkers het dit gelyk gemaak en vasgestamp sodat mense daaroor kan ry,” het Harris gesê. Verder af in Munnikstraat lê die grondhope nog net so op die sypaadjie langs die randstene. Ingenieur Pieter Meiring, van die raadgewende ingenieurs Dombo en Du Plessis, het Dinsdag gesê dat daar in gedagte gehou moet word dat die werk nog nie afgeteken is nie. “Waar daar veranderings gemaak moet ‘n Begin is gemaak met die randstene in Munnikstraat. Die wenkbroue word, moet dit gemaak word. lig egter reeds oor die gaping tussen die teer en die randstene, asook (Vervolg op p. 2) die hoogte van die randstene.
