BLUE DOWNS: SUBFORUM KLA OOR GEBREK AAN DIENS, BESKERMING
Mense ‘keelvol vir polisie’ MICHELLE LINNERT @linnertmb
Hulle is “keelvol”. Dít was die boodskap op ’n vergadering van die sektor 2-polisiëringsubforum van Blue Downs. Daar was geen polisiebeamptes by die vergadering teenwoordig nie. “Die polisie het ’n sekere mandaat. Hulle is hier om ons te beskerm en van diens te wees. Dít is wat hulle móét doen,” het Dawid Ruiters, voorsitter van dié subforum, gesê. “Op Saterdag 7 September omstreeks 20:30 was daar ’n rooftog in London Way, Malibu Village, waar ek by verskeie geleenthede die Kleinvlei-polisie gekontak het.” Hulle kon een van die verdagtes in dié huisroof vang, en die mes afneem wat hy by hom gehad het. Maar Ruiters en sy span moes egter die verdagte laat gaan. “Dit het ’n halfuur vir die polisie geneem om uit te kom en vrae te vra,” sê Ruiters.
Daar is dieselfde nag nog drie keer skote gevuur op Ruiters se buurman, ene Elliot, se huis. Ruiters beweer dit was die verdagte wat dié skietwerk kom doen het. Hy vertel ook van ’n geval op 11 September om 19:00, toe drie verdagtes in ’n afsonderlike voorval betrokke was by ’n rooftog. Ruiters sê hulle het die rooftog sien aankom, want een van die verdagtes het glo oop en bloot met ’n vuurwapern geloop. Ruiters sê toe hy egter die Kleinvlei-polisie bel, moes hy glo hoor: “Verwag jy dan nou die polisievoertuig moet vlieg?” Hy vertel dis toe hy die 10111-noodnommer bel dat daar reaksie was. “Toe daag hulle vinnig op. Maar dit was te laat. Die verdagtes het eenvoudig weggestap, in hul voertuig geklim, en daar is hulle weg,” sê hy. “Dit was tragies, kommerwekkend, want wat moet ons doen as die mense wat ons moet beskerm en van diens wees, nie optree nie?” het Ruiters gesê.
“Ek is klaar met die polisie. Dít is wat gebeur in ons area. Mense, ons hét nie polisie nie,” het hy gesê. “Die polisie kom uit, dan is daar niks bewyse nie. Ons staan nie saam nie. Ek kan nie my lewe opoffer vir polisie wat nie hul werk doen nie. My huis word geteiken, my kinders ly daaronder, maar wat gaan ons doen?” het Ruiters gevra.
Kritiek André Bantom, ondervoorsitter, het ook skerp kritiek gelewer. “Dit gaan oor my veiligheid, my gesin se veiligheid, die gemeenskap se veiligheid. Dis nou al te lank dat ons sê als is wel in ons gemeenskap, terwyl ons weet dit is nié so nie. Ons kla nie. Ons moet ’n slag dít wat ons toekom, eien,” het hy gesê. “Die meeste (misdade) wat gebeur in Kleinvlei, word weggehou van die mense om die beeld van die polisie te poets. Ons moet uit een mond praat,” het hy gesê. “Van 2011 af sukkel ons al só met die poli-
sie. Wat het sedertdien verander? Die misdaad is op, die tik is meer, daar is meer sjebiens oop. Dis tyd dat ons opstaan. “Kol. Stroebel, as u nie bereid is om ons van diens te wees nie, moet u u sakke vat dat ons iemand kan kry wat vir ons omgee. Julle is hier om ’n diens te lewer; julle doen ons geen gunste nie,” het Bantom gesê. Richard Esterhuizen, skoolhoof van die Hoërskool Malibu, het gesê dis nie nét die polisie se skuld as sake agteruitgaan nie. “Dié is ook ’n gemeenskapsprobleem. Misdaad beïnvloed ons almal se lewe, maar as ’n ouer nie eens vir sy eie kind wil uitkom (skool toe) nie, dan moet ons nie die ‘polisieprobleem’ as geïsoleerd sien nie.” Sophia Kannemeyer, ’n gemeenskapsleier van Kleinvlei, het gesê hulle daar het ’n goeie verhouding met die polisie, maar dat “die gemeenskap moet saamstaan en sy stem dik maak”.

Kleinvlei­polisiehoof antwoord klagtes:
Hier is (van links) Richard Esterhuizen, Mauret­ ta Dolman, Iris Dubee, Neil Theys, Jerome Fitz, André Bantom, Julian Unthank, Wilma Brady en Dawid Ruiters. Agter is Christi Booysen.
Neil Theys van die Tuscany Glen-buurtwag was duidelik oor sy gevoelens jeens die polisie. “Ek is g–vol vir die polisie,” het Theys gesê. “Dié stasie word nou gebruik as ’n ‘by the way’, sodat almal hier brigadier kan raak,” het hy gesê. Wilma Brady, wyk 17-raadslid, het gesê sy het ook al dié beweerde swak diens ervaar. “Ek self het aan belangrike inligting aan die polisie verskaf oor waar dwelms begrawe word. “Dan ry hulle net verby dié huis en sê hulle kan nie daar stop nie, hulle het nie ’n lasbrief nie.” Unthank het die vergadering afgesluit deur te sê hy het “nog nooit sulke slegte diens van die polisie ervaar nie. Daar is nie meer verhoudinge nie. Slegs sekere mense word bevoordeel, ander moet ly.” Hy het die gemeenskap aangemoedig om eerder die 10111-noodnommer te skakel wanneer hulle dié polisiekantoor skakel, want dié oproepe word opgeneem en die polisie móét daarop reageer. “As jy die stasie se nommer bel, dan kan hulle aan jou sê net wat hulle wil, want daar is geen rekord nie,” het Unthank verduidelik. “Ons kry nie die diens wat ons verdien nie. Ons moet die gemeenskap mobiliseer en ons gedagtegang verander.”
Kol. Joan Stroebel, stasiebevelvoerder van die Kleinvlei-polisie, het ook hul kant van die saak gestel: VOor die gebrek aan bywoning van die vergadering: Op 10 September, ná die (vergadering van die) gemeenskapspolisiëringsforum (GPF), is ek op skrif in kennis gestel van ’n subforum-vergadering in sektor 2, wat geskeduleer is vir 12 September. Op 11 September het ek ’n oproep ontvang van mnr. Ruiters, die voorsitter van dié subforum in sektor 2, wat my ingelig het dat hy onsuksesvol was om ’n megafoon in die hande te kry, en dat nie genoeg pamflette in verband met die vergadering uitgedeel is nie. Mnr. Ruiters het aangedui dat ons nie ’n herhaling van die vorige vergadering wat ek bygewoon het in Augustus, waar ons swak bywoning gehad het, wou hê nie. Ek het aan mnr. Ruiters gesê dat dit piekfyn is om die vergadering uit te stel vir die volgende week, om te verseker dat ons soveel moontlik mense bereik. Ek het my personeel die volgende oggend oor dié bespreking ingelig. VOor beweringe van swak diens: Ek kan nie reageer of kommentaar lewer oor “beweringe dat die Kleinvlei-polisie nie hul werk doen nie”, aangesien dit veralgemening is en daar geen verwysing na ’n spesifieke insident is nie.
Unthank het ook gesê dat ’n bos polisiesleutels, wat onder meer die deure van die polisieselle moet oopsluit, weggeraak het. Beamptes moes die slotte afsaag en vervang. Daar is glo ook ’n polisievuurwapen van die perseel gesteel, wat later in Kleinvlei terug-
Maar, wanneer die gemeenskap amptelik kla oor dienslewering, word ondersoeke uitgevoer op die meriete daarvan, en dissiplinêre optrede gedoen teen die verantwoordelike lede, indien dit nodig geag word. VOor die vermiste vuurwapen: Na my kennis is geen vuurwapen onlangs as vermis aangemeld by die Kleinvlei-polisie nie, en ek kan daarom nie reageer op dié vraag nie, tensy meer inligting hieroor verstrek word nie. VOor die vermiste bos sleutels: Die sleutels by die Kleinvlei-polisieselle is as vermis aangedui. ’n Dossier en dissiplinêre lêer is geregistreer vir verdere ondersoek. Hierdie terugvoering is aan die GPF gegee op 10 September op aanvraag van die GPF-voorsitter (Julian Unthank). VOor die beweerde rooftogte: Die beweerde insidente van ’n rooftog in Londonweg en Blue Downs sal ondersoek word met die inhandiging van verklarings van die onderskeie klaers. Ek versoek dat die klaers my hieroor kontak. VOor algemene kritiek: Die kritiek teen die Kleinvlei-polisie in die breë, en my bestuur, is vaag. Ek kan daarom nie toepaslik kommentaar daarop lewer nie. Verdere duidelikheid oor dié aangeleentheid kan met my of my groepsbevelvoerder, brig. Vincent Beaton, bespreek word.
gevind is, het hy gesê. V Die volgende openbare vergadering waarna al Eer­ sterivier se gemeenskapsorganisasies genooi word, vind op 26 September by die Hillcrest­gemeenskap­ sentrum plaas. Meer besonderhede is elders in dié uitgawe.
Plenty of prizes up for grabs this week for the whole family, including CDs, wine, a wine festival lunch, children’s theatre tickets as well as tickets to the ballet and more.
Eerste River groups set to meet The Community Policing Forum (CPF) of Eerste River and the Greater Blue Downs area are calling all organisations from there to a public meeting. “The meeting is about the police giving feedback on the current crime situation and how they are dealing with it, and what the role of the CPF and the community is,” said Julian Unthank, chair of this CPF. “Together we then need to agree on the roles of all going forward, and the service the community expects,” he said. The meeting will take place on Thursday 26 September from 08:30 to 13:00 at the Hillcrest Civic Centre in Blue Downs. The CPF extends the invitation to all organisations, churches, school governing bodies, school pricipals, political organisations, NGOs, CBOs, business organisations, rate payers’ organisations, etc. V All interested parties can contact Julian Unthank at 084 5777 574 or at julianu@worl­ donline.co.za.
Epileptic man from Hillview missing, family frantic
Police confiscate dagga cache in Kalkfontein Dagga has landed a 30-year-old Kalkfontein man in some serious trouble. Kuils River police found quantities of the substance in his wendy house in Vrygrond with a street value of R20 000, Capt Isaac van Niekerk of the police station said. This highly successful raid was executed by members in the past week during various crime prevention operations The star officer in this bust, W/O Gerald Swart, responded to a tip-off from the community. He and his team then confiscated the narcotics and arrested the man for dealing in dagga. “The use of drugs is problematic to the police of Kuils River, and therefore the management of Kuils River SAPS welcomes the information given by the community that led to the success of the arrest,” Van Niekerk said. “Young children experiment with drugs at an early age and therefore it is important for the police of Kuils Rivier to police drug trafficking effectively.” V The public is encouraged to anonymously supply information to prevent crime on the police’s toll free number, 10111.

A man from Hillview in Eerste River has been missing since about 04:30 on Saturday, his family says. The man, Riaan Jansen (39) was wearing a black jacket, khaki pants and was barefoot at the time. His sister Jacqueline Isaacs says he is mentally disabled and an epileptic, but they have no idea in which direction he may have gone. “It was still dark and raining heavily at that time of the morning,” she said. They started a search party at the time but could not find him. “The relatives of the person started a search party and the police were not really helpful in terms of copies of the flier they had arranged. The family had to go make copies themselves,” said Julian Unthank, chair of the Community Policing Forum of Eerste River and Greater Blue Downs. “They also had no assistance in terms of a search team being arranged. Currently they are still searching,” he said.The family are from 6 Antonie Delange Street in Hillview, where Riaan lives with his mother and sister. V Anyone with information about Riaan’s whereabouts can contact Jaqueline Isaacs at 073 701 3051 or 021 904 8711.

Kleinvlei High class of 1996 wanted! If you were in matric at Kleinvlei High in 1996, your presence is needed to make this class’s reunion a smashing success. This is the message from the new community organisation Education Horizon, which focuses mainly on uplifting Kleinvlei’s youth and the community at large through education. Their launch event, the matric reunion, will take place from 12:00 on Saturday 28 September at 55 Strelitzia Street, Eerste River. The theme for this bring-and-braai will be “Courageous Generation”. The organisation works in close partnership with other community organisations like the Teen Challenge Rehabilitation Centre in Melton Rose. For the event, the organisers are asking these former matriculants “to just pitch on the day”, said Johanie Malgas, part of the steering committee. The other members of the steering committee are Antonio Coericius and Chamoney De Voux. If you fit the bill, Johanie is also inviting you to add them on Facebook for more details on the reunion. “The reunion serves to be an uplifting experience in the area, which is currently riddled with gang violence and poverty,” he said. “It will serve to unite a large group of friends – who were once labelled by the school as ‘rebellious’ – of which 170 still managed to empower ourselves by passing matric in 1996,” he said. “We hope to form a support group for our generation (around the 35-year-old mark), as many of us are still living in the community and are also facing the stumbling blocks and personal problems of the broader community. “Most of us have reached success in our life and would like to plough back, or at least set an example to youth, that crime does not pay, and education does,” he said. V Interested parties can contact Johanie Ray Malgas on 073 699 2794 or at johanie@webmail.co.za, or Antonio Coericius (083 518 0580) or Chamoney De Voux (073 3819 904).
Manhandling claims at Wesbank store MICHELLE LINNERT

hat started out as a plate breaking, turned into a “hostage” situation – with smashed viennas, a sjambok and claims of underage and naked searches of customers at Wesbank’s only supermarket. According to a number of residents, the alleged wrong-doing and abuse has been going on since the Wesbank Family Store opened, and two of the key players in the drama around the searches and other serious claims, are the manager and one of the security guards. Wendy Rin, manager, and Benjamin (presumed to be from the DRC), who refused to supply his surname to TygerBurger, are known throughout Wesbank for their alleged unsavoury treatment of customers. A story unfolds that denies belief. Ludicka de Villiers entered the family store and left her shopping bag on the cellphone counter’s glass pane. The parcel counter was unattended at the time. “The security saw me putting my bag there. When I wanted to leave, and taking my bag from the cellphone counter, someone knocked into me from behind,” said Ludicka. “In that instant when I took my bag, it snagged his (Benjamin’s) plate, from which he normally ate, from the cellphone counter. The plate fell and broke. It wasn’t my fault and I tried to explain what had happened. “He refused to let me go until I had re-
Heritage Day fun in Park Village Residents are reminded of the fun day planned for them in Park Village for Heritage Day. It will be a great day to spend time with the kids, relax, and enjoy neighbours’ and friends’ company while the kids take part in a treasure hunt and have their faces painted. There will also be a jumping castle, food stalls, and a potjiekos competition. And for those who can sing, there will be the special “Noot vir Noot” karaoke session at the park in Hermes Street. The Park Village Youth Committee is responsible for all this fun on 24 September. Petro-Ann Nicholas, secretary of the committee, reiterated that they wanted to give the community something to look forward to. As if all this festivity isn’t enough, there will also be band performances and something yummie to eat for the youngsters, she said. “This event has to be an unforgettable experience for young and old,” Petro-Ann said.

Mfuleni CPF to meet The Mfuleni Community Policing Forum would like to invite all community organisations and structures to a general meeting. The meeting will be held on 26 September at 18:00 at the Mfuleni police station boardroom. Each organisation is requested to send two delegates to attend.
Kleinvlei­mense vergader Daar sal ’n behuisingsvergadering gehou word op Saterdag 21 September vanaf 15:00 by die kantore van Sophia Kannemeyer by die sogenaamde Rasta-gebou.

placed his plate. He then took my groceries and smashed the sausages that were in my grocery bag,” she said. At the same time, TygerBurger was around the corner at the Wesbank Multipurpose Centre with Ricardo le Roux, a community leader. When Ricardo got the call from Neville Hartnick, the owner of a small shop outside the supermarket, to come and assist Ludicka with the incident, we hurried to the scene of the incident. When confronted with TygerBurger’s questions, Rin refused to answer about other allegations such as this one – that the community has complained about to Ricardo in the past. “I’m not giving any answers, you are
rude,” she told TygerBurger, and tried to convince Ludicka to replace Benjamin’s plate, so the whole drama could be solved. Ludicka refused, because it had been an accident. On hearing the questions TygerBurger was directing at Wendy, Benjamin kept shouting to her: “Wendy, she’s nothing! She wants to scare you, don’t say anything!” When Rin insisted that she wanted to sort the problem out right there, Benjamin could be heard shouting inside the supermarket: “She won’t get out! I won’t let her leave! She will buy me a new plate!” And so the “hostage” situation started. TygerBurger next called the police for assistance.
Mfuleni police immediately dispatched two constables, Bonginkosi Makaula and Pahmo Nyai, to the scene when hearing that security was refusing to allow Ludicka to leave the store. Before confronting him the constable confirmed that Benjamin had been involved in a stabbing incident at the store before. “Are you here to search the people, or to intimidate the customers?” Makaula asked Benjamin. He then publicly denied refusing Ludicka to exit the store. Makaula then advised him about proper and legal searching practices. “Before you can search a person, you need to ask their permission. Then you need to take them to a private place. People will always get upset if you just search them,” he said. Ludicka decided not to replace Benjamin’s plate, and the police subsequently left. Outside the store, Jacqueline Bassick told TygerBurger: “That tall one (Benjamin), the last time, he slapped my son, Donnell. He called my son a gangster,” she said. Sharon Tieties had a more serious concern. “They searched my baby boy four times when he was just three years old,” she said. “All those times, he went with his carer to the supermarket. The third time, she got suspicious and wondered why, every time she and Shagon (now five) went there, the guys searched the baby right into his underpants,” Sharon said. “When I confronted him (Benjamin), he got angry and yelled at me,” she alleged.
Pre­schoolers step ahead for disabled kids The staff at Step Ahead Educare in Kuils River could not have known what a profound effect a recent visit would have on their lives. The school’s teachers paid a visit to Sivenathi, a licensed home for severely disabled children in Blackheath. These children, most of whom cannot do anything for themselves, immediately did the greatest thing for these educators: they crept straight into their hearts. So much so that Step Ahead has decided, as one of their main objectives for 2013, to make social contributions to mentally and physically challenged children, and as such, to raise much-needed funds for these special kids.
Sivenathi’s gratitude is immense. “We at Sivenathi hereby humbly express our heartfelt gratitude to everyone at Step Ahead Educare for their campaign towards helping our vulnerable and helpless kids,” Gideon Dalupa, manager at Sivenathi, said. “It is tearful to know that Sivenathi’s helpers are little children, innocent children. They are only one to six years old, yet at such a young age they are being taught to be kind and giving...Otherwise, how do we change the world? “Please help the little ones at Step Ahead Educare to help us. They have the blessings and prayers of us all here at Sivenathi,” he said. Step Ahead has everything clearly

planned. “To realise our objective, everyone at Step Ahead is dedicated to the cause, and we are energised, excited and eager to raise funds to help these vulnerable children,” said Gail Eckhard, coordinator of the fundraiser. “Based on a needs assessment, our educare aims to provide curtains, bedding, wash buckets, kitchen utensils, paint, nappies, pyjamas, socks, toothbrushes, face cloths, soap and a washing machine and tumble dryer,” Gail said. Sivenathi will be receiving the intended social contributions during “an extravagant Debutante Ballroom event” on 5 October at the Sarepta community centre from 19:00 to 23:00, she said.
“The Phoenix Dance Company has committed to making a free contribution in the form of ballroom dancing,” Gail said. She said the creche wanted to express their commitment to the cause by inviting companies to sponsor their learners with special white T-shirts on which they wish to print: “We support the disabled”. The T-shirts will then be worn on Fridays. “We would like readers to realise that we all have a social responsibility. Someone has to do something to make a difference in the life of at least one mentally or physically disabled child.” V All interested parties can contact Gail Eckhard of the Step Ahead fundraising committee at 084 561 6352.

Die Witbooi-Namas is op soek na hul mense. Sedert 2009 word die Namafees jaarliks gevier met die doel om die Namas se taal, kultuur en erfenis te bewaar, bevorder en beskerm. In 2010 is ’n kultuuruitruilingsooreenkoms met die Witbooi’s van Namibië en Suid Afrika aangegaan, ten einde die Namataal en kultuur te bevorder. Om hierdie rede kom daar elke jaar Namas van Namibië na Suid Afrika om die fees by te woon, maar terselfdertyd die kultuuroordrag te demonstreer. Verlede jaar het 60 Namas uit Namibië die fees bygewoon. Vanjaar is die belangstelling vir die fees geweldig hoog.

La Rochelle not what it used to be Re: “All the protection obscures the beauty”, TygerBurger, 11 September: Having lived in La Rochelle for 20 years, yes there have been changes. It is very costly to water an expanse of lawn these days. As a ratepaying citizen I am also expected to foot the bill for watering and tending the council verges. Maybe Mr Traut would like to subsidise my water bill. La Rochelle is a beautiful suburb which used to be peaceful, but no longer where I am situated. I am surrounded by dogs that bark every day, sometimes for hours on end, the continual smell of excrement in the air because dog owners cannot be bothered to clean up their yards, children that scream continuously, people sawing and grinding... As for the social problems, I think that it is the responsibility of government to sort it out. ANON La Rochelle
Bank teller worthy of our high praise I would like to express my gratitude to the teller, Danielle Neethling, at ABSA Bank, N1 City Mall. She provided incomparable service to an octogenarian father who has been their client for many years. My siblings and I had accompanied him to the bank on Saturday morning, 14 September. The bank requested
additional documentation to complete the desired transaction. We supplied these and were assisted as the bank was closing. The process was a lengthy one and the teller stayed behind for more than 45 minutes after the bank had officially closed to complete it. We were critically aware that it was the start of her weekend. If she had been disgruntled or rushed to conclude the transaction, we would rightly have understood. However, she was professional, patient and kind throughout. She deserves to be lauded for such dazzling service; wholly exceeding expectation. Thank you! IMOGEN CAMPBELL Vrijzee
You with the noisy bikes, cars: grow up! Camps bay and Constantia have their Porsches and Ferraris. What does Parow have? Parow has motor bikes and skedonks. These operate with impunity shattering the air with their noise as their owners strive to exact every bit of sound from the exhaust pipes while racing up Mcintyre street direction N1. Their meteoric progress can still be heard for kilometres by all the neighbourhood for minutes afterwards. They derive great pleasure by causing loud bangs in the smaller streets as they rip home and park in their driveways. All of this to “impress” the neighbours with their alpha behaviour. Neighbours are too intimidated or timid to approach these offensive characters and ask them to tone down their Grand Prix imitations. I remember as kids playing with dinky toys in the dust to loud brooombroooms. The more rich and loud the more powerful the toy. In short, grow up guys, so we can wave a friendly wave as you pass by instead of throwing down the tools in anger. ANON Web letter

Soveel méér as net petroldampe MICHELLE LINNERT @linnertmb
an dronk “henne” tot huweliksberading en kredietkaartbedrog – hulle het al álles gesien. Dié “hulle” is die mense wat elke ander dag rondstaan in petroldampe om tuit-indie-tenk te druk: petrolpompassistente, of petroljoggies, soos die volk hulle ken. TygerBurger het ’n paar van hulle gaan opsoek om uit te vind hoe die huidige petroljoggie-staking hul lewens beïnvloed, maar toe op ’n heel interessanter prentjie onder dié vriendelike manne by dié “ramp”, of vulstasie, afgekom. Graeme Daniels werk al ’n jaar by dié vulstasie in Eersterivier. Sedert die begin van die stakings mag hy en sy kollegas nie hul uniforms dra nie. “Daar is baie stres hier,” sê Graeme. Hy verwys nie nét na die stakings nie. “Baie keer kry ons moeilike klante. Hulle kom hier aan – dronk, of vol huis-stres, dan haal hulle dit op ons uit.
Ontsteld “Só het hier byvoorbeeld Vrydag ’n ou ingekom, lekker ‘warm’ en ontsteld, en ek het sy petrol ingegooi. Toe sê dié ou hy het nie geld nie. Ons het ’n reuse-argument gehad, maar aan die einde het hy tog betaal.” Dis nie al probleem nie. “Die taxibestuurders kom hier aan en hulle kan onbeskof wees. Jy hoor sommer gou van jou ma-segoed, of ‘jy beter gou maak’. Hulle moet net in en uit, want hulle moet geldmaak,” sê Graeme. “So ons probeer maar altyd om vir hulle meer scope te gee, want ons wil nie hê hulle moet raas of vloek nie. Baie mense het kinders in hul karre,” sê hy. Graeme sê die vulstasie lewer talle vreemdhede op. “Ons het al huwelike ook gered hier. Een aand het ’n vrou in haar kar hier aangekom. Haar man het haar in sy kar tot hier gevolg. Hulle het ’n reuse-argument oor ’n verneukery. “Toe stuur ons hulle maar na die aantrekkamer om hul sake te gaan uitstryk.” Graeme sê hy ken sy “goeie” klante. “Een vrou het laasjaar Desember R100 se petrol ingegooi, toe betaal sy met R300. Sy is een van daai mense wat nie deur die jaar tip nie, maar einde van die jaar gee sy ’n groot bonus.”
Community reminded of march against gang violence and crime
Sy kollega, Justus Isaacs, is ’n voormalige brandweerman van Grabouw. Hy is deur Graeme opgelei. “Dis lekker om hier te werk,” meen Justus. ’n Mens kom met ’n slegte gemoed van die huis af, dan gee ’n klant ’n mens iets goeds, miskien iets uit die Bybel uit, dan dwaal dit die heeldag in ’n mens se gedagtes,” sê hy. “Hier kom baie goeies, én skurke. Daar is byvoorbeeld mense wat sê ‘gooi R100 in’, dan sê hulle agterna hulle het gesê ‘net R50’. Dan moet die assistent die balans inbetaal. “Dis veral mense wat sag praat, en dié wat op hul selfone is terwyl jy hulle help – dis húlle wat ’n mens afstry,” sê Justus. “In die dagskof is dit stil – gebeur hier niks, maar in die nagskof, veral Vrydag- en Saterdagaand, kan jy enigiets verwag. “Ons het al gesien hoe die klomp van die kroeg af hier aangekom het van ’n henneparty, en toe het hulle begin baklei, en toe gryp hulle mekaar aan die hare hier voor ons.
The community is once again reminded to take part in a march against gang violence. Residents of Park Village have organised the march and wish to make a positive change in their neighbourhoods after Eerste River went through a spate of gang-related incidents. Petro-Ann Nicholas, secretary of the Park Village Youth Committee, asked the community to rock up in droves Saturday 5 October to show their support for a gang free Kleinvlei and broader Eerste River.
“Communities must start to work together and stand up against drug abuse and gangsterism in Kleinvlei. We must let our voices be heard, and heard very clearly,” she reiterated. The route for the march will start at the Kleinvlei police station, via Station Road through Melton Rose, Spandau, a part of Keerom Street, and will end at the Kleinvlei sport grounds. The march will include prayers. V Contact Petro­Ann Nicholas (secretary) of the Park Village Youth Committee at 083 230 5538 with queries.
Kaartbedrog “En een van die ouens wat hier werk, weet al hoe lyk die manne wat die kaartbedrog pleeg. Ons sê vir ons klante: Moenie by garage-OTM’e geld trek nie. Wag tot daar mense om jou is,” sê Justus. En dis nie ál skelmstreke nie. “Ja,” sê hul kollega, Kyle Meisenheimer. “Hulle kom half-dronk hier aan. Só iemand het sy tenk laat volmaak, en toe hy in sy beursie kyk, toe is daar net mooi niks in nie.” Justus vertel dié storie verder: “Toe hy nog sê hy het nie geld nie, toe sê my oorsiener ek moet sy bonnet oopmaak en die ‘olie kyk’ – sodat hy nie kan ry nie. Toe ‘smile’ sy tenk al klaar van al die petrol. Dit was R590. Ek onthou. “Dit was al oor 02:00. Toe hy wou ry, toe haal ek self sy sleutel uit. Hy het toe sy pa gebel. Dié is ’n pastoor. Toe kom sy ma om te betaal. Toe sy pa kom, toe wil hy nie uit die kar klim nie. Sy pa se hand hang nog so aan die deur, toe ry hy – en sleep sy pa al agterna!” En dan, die staking. “Ons behoort nie aan ’n unie nie. Dis baie gevaarlik om te kom werk. “Ons loer die heeltyd oor ons skouer. Maar as ons dít heeltyd doen, wanneer gaan die foute inglip? Want ons is nervous,” sê Justus. “Dis ongelukkig ‘no work, no pay’. So, ons kan nie deelneem nie, ons moet werk.”

Wrestling prize: champ’s belt
Teams are on their way THOMAS CAROLUS
XWE (Xtreme Wrestling Entertainment) is set to bring the action to the Kraaifontein City Hall on Monday 23 September at 20:00. Several top wrestlers and live entertainment promises for a fun-filled evening. When asked, owner Johan Lamprecht described the Kraaifontein City Hall as: “A perfect venue for wrestling, the venue can house about 1 000 fans. It’s just perfect for our great wrestling fans.” XWE has had great success in the Kraaifontein and Brackenfell areas, having had several shows including a family day show and a show in association with the local church. XWE is set to deliver their biggest show to date. On 23 September XWE will be presenting Rise of the Champions in association with Burger Le Roux and Pierre Rossouw. The night will be filled with wrestling action, an MMA tournament, singing superstar performances and some special added surprises. Tricore Freestyle MMA is an MMA training centre closely tied to XWE; they have also bred several MMA champions. XWE has always said that when the time was right they would crown their first champion, and the time will be right on 23 September.
