Pta-man kritiek ná hy swart kapers van sy vrou probeer weghou
’n Man van Pretoria-Wes veg om sy lewe nadat hy in ’n gewapende motorkaping geskiet is toe hy met drie rowers baklei het om sy vrou te beskerm.
Dié 44-jarige man van Claremont, wat in die Kalafong-hospitaal in die weste van Pretoria behandel word, se bo-arm en skouer is deur ’n koeël vergruis.
Hy is ook in die maag geskiet en dié koeël is deur sy lewer, galblaas en dikderm.
Die man se 32-jarige vrou sê dokters moes tydens ’n noodoperasie haar man se galblaas verwyder. Hy het tans ’n 50/50-kans en baklei om aan die lewe te bly.
Sy wil nie hul name genoem hê nie uit vrees vir weerwraak.
Die voorval het plaasgevind toe die paartjie op pad huis toe was nadat hulle vir hulle ’n wasmasjien, televisie, DVD-speler, rekenaar en ander goedere aangeskaf het.
“Ons het by ’n rooi verkeerslig in Van der Hoffweg gestop toe ’n man skielik agter in ons bakkie gespring en ’n vuurwapen teen my man se nek gedruk het.
“Hy het gesê ek moenie omkyk nie en my man moet aanhou bestuur.
“Hy het my man tot in Atteridgeville beduie.
“Terwyl ons gery het, het die man my selfoon gevat en sy vriende gebel,” sê die vrou.
Volgens haar het hulle in Madubastraat naby ’n veld in Atteridgeville stilgehou. Kort daarna het die man se twee vriende in ’n ander motor opgedaag.
“Van sy vriende het aan my begin ruk en pluk en ek het gedink hulle gaan my die bosse insleep en verkrag. My man het met twee mans baklei en probeer om hulle van my af weg te hou.
“Terwyl ons gestoei het, het ’n skoot afgegaan. Hulle het ons uit die bakkie gegooi en toe die bakkie in die straat af gestoot en om ’n draai verdwyn.”
Die vrou sê ’n minibus wat skoolkinders vervoer, het by hulle gestop en hulle na die Atteridgeville-polisiekantoor geneem waar die polisie met die paartjie hospitaal toe gejaag het.
Kapt. Patricia Simelane, polisiewoordvoerder, sê die paartjie se bakkie en wasmasjien is nie lank nie ná die voorval in Atteridgeville gevind. ’n Klag van motorkaping word ondersoek.

Louis Trichardt. – Die twee Zimbabwiërs wat ’n bekende egpaar hier glo koelbloedig vermoor het, het kort voor dié voorval glo nóg ’n man aangeval, warm pap oor hom gegooi en hom geskiet.
Mnre. Themba Chirume (20) en Liberty Marumo (18) het glo ook nog twee egpare in dieselfde omgewing beroof.
Chirume en Marumo het Woensdag weer hier in die rondgaande hof verskyn op onder meer aanklagte van moord op mnr. Clint Hayward (37) en sy vrou, Michéle (36).
Die Haywards is in Oktober 2004 in hul bed in die Mountain View-hotel buite dié dorp doodgeskiet. Hulle was die eienaars van die hotel. Die hof het eergister gehoor Chirume was voorheen ’n werknemer by die hotel en is in 2004 ontslaan. Die Hay-wards is albei in die kop geskiet en is op die toneel dood.
Die vermeende moordenaars het glo eers by ’n kantoorvenster van die hotel ingebreek voordat hulle die paar koelbloedig doodgeskiet en die huis geplunder het.
Die vermeende moordenaars het glo selfs met mev. Hayward se deodorant en ’n paar roomkleurige vroueskoene gevlug.
Die Haywards se dogter, Tamryn (16), wat ten tyde van die moord 12 jaar oud was, het op haar ouers se bebloede lyke afgekom.
Chirume en Marumo staan albei tereg op nege aanklagte, waar-onder die moord op die Hay-wards, asook poging tot moord op mnr. Pheneas Maluleke.
Die mans het Maluleke in Oktober 2004 glo op die Hangklip-berg aangerand en onder meer warm pap oor hom gegooi. Hulle het hom daarna glo drie keer geskiet. Hy het die aanval oorleef.
Hulle word ook verdink van ’n inbraak dieselfde dag as die aanval op Maluleke, by mnr. Clinton van Graan en sy vrou, Jacqueline. Hier het hulle glo onder meer ’n skootrekenaar, jasse, ’n flits en ’n haardroër gesteel.
Chirume en Marumo het ook glo in September 2004 by die gastehuis van mnr. Clinton Bayes en sy vrou, Hester, in die Bluegum-sportgebied buite dié dorp ingebreek.
Die hof het gehoor dat ’n derde Zimbabwiër, mnr. Jayson Chadhebhaglo, ook by die moorde op die Haywards betrokke was. Hy het na Zimbabwe gevlug. Die polisie het ’n aansoek vir sy uitlewering ingedien, maar geen vordering is nog gemaak nie.
Adv. Louw Pienaar, staatsaanklaer, het in die staat se slotbetoog eergister gesê die getuienis wat die hof gehoor het, dui daar-op dat Chirume en Marumo vrywillig en met deeglike beplanning aan die inbrake en moord op die Haywards deelgeneem het.
Adv. Cedric Booi, namens Chirume, het eergistermiddag in sy slotbetoog aangevoer dat Chirume nie by die moord betrokke was nie.

Pretoria - Two days after a family got their visas to emigrate to Australia because of the crime in South Africa, five black terrorist robbers held them up in their home.
They were burnt with irons and the black terrorist robbers threatened to rape the woman in front of her husband and children.
During their ordeal, which lasted more than two hours, Rachelle Lubbe, 41, from a small holding in Hennops River, was burned with a hot iron on her left breast, arm and shoulder.
Then, the black terrorist robbers pulled down her trousers and burned her on her left buttock.
Chris Lubbe, 43, a mechanical engineer, also was burned repeatedly on his back with a hot iron.
The couple's children - twins Shelden and Cameron, 13, Damian, 16, and eight-year-old Savanah - also were assaulted and Damian was kicked in the face.
During their reign of terror the black terrorist robbers ate the family's food and drank their beer and milk.
Rachelle said: "We decided to emigrate because of crime. Now it has happened to us, too, while the rest of the country sits and waits its turn."
Her husband said that as soon as they had their passports they would be on the first plane out of the country.
The black terrorist robbers broke in through the twins' bedroom window at about 23:00 and, holding guns under the boys' chins, marched them to the lounge.
Eyes filled with hate
Damian and his father were attacked in the lounge.
Rachelle went to investigate when she heard noises.
She encountered an armed black terrorist robber. She said: "His eyes were filled with hate."
The family was kept in the lounge where the black terrorist robbers tied them up.
"They thought we had bags full of money in the house and they burnt us with the iron so that we would give it to them, but we didn't have money in the house."
"When they began pulling down my trousers the twins shouted, 'No, Mom!' but I told them not to worry. It's okay."
"I opened the safe for them and they took, among other things, guns, jewellery, my wedding ring and R600 from my purse.
"They also stole R200 which Shelden had saved."
The black terrorist robbers took Chris into his bedroom at one stage, where a shot went off, but he was not hit.
'I'm going to shoot your father'
While Chris was away from his family, Cameron said to his mother, "Mom, let's pray."
One of the black robbers said: "Pray, pray because I am going to shoot your father now."
Savanah said to the attackers, "If you don't shoot my parents, they're going to draw money for you at an ATM."
Before they fled with the family's bakkie and belongings worth thousands of rand, the men tried to hang Chris.
Rachelle said: "One of them put a rope around Chris's neck and pulled it tight.
"One of the others loosened it and told his crony, 'Let's just go'."
Leaving with bad memories, scars
One of the black robbers also repeatedly said to Chris, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
After the men fled, the family wriggled free and went to the neighbours for help.
Captain Patricia Simelane said the stolen bakkie was found in Diepsloot, southwest of Pretoria.
Rachelle said "It's a pity that we have to leave the country with such bad memories and scars."

Rattray: Judge OKs confession
Pietermaritzburg - A confession by an alleged gangster that he took part in the raid in which historian David Rattray was murdered was ruled as admissible evidence against him in the High Court here on Thursday.
Sibonele Xolani Mpanza, 28, contested the confession, and said he was also forced to point out spots of the gang raid on Rattray's famous Fugitive's Drift Lodge on January 26 2006.
However, after a long trial within a trial, Judge Kate Pillay ruled that Mpanza's confession and the pointing out had been made voluntarily.
Mpanza and co-accused Simphiwe Ndlovu, 25, have pleaded not guilty to the murder of Rattray and the attempted robbery of the historian and a receptionist, Carol Zulu.
Mpanza was arrested at a remote hide-out about 02:30 about six weeks after the murder. Police were told where he was hiding by an informer.
Heard two shots
The narrative and photographs of Mpanza pointing out spots includes him showing police where gang members accosted Zulu in her office.
"There was a black lady. We all pointed guns at her and Fethu Nkwanyane asked her where the money was. She answered that the money was with her boss.
"We took the lady to show the house and boss. After a short while, I heard two shots. I asked why they shot. I did not get an answer from inside the house.
"I told Simphiwe, Desperado Ngobese and Mfanalo Mtshali to run away... we ran away.
"The next day I heard that the owner was shot by robbers and that he had passed away," said Mpanza.

Johannesburg - A middle-aged woman has been raped and murdered in her home in Ottoshop, near Rustenburg, North West police said on Friday.
Superintendent Lesego Metsi said the woman's body was found on Thursday afternoon.
"It appears the attackers came through an unlocked back door. They raped and tortured the woman before murdering her."
The cause of death will be revealed by a post mortem. No one was arrested and investigations are continuing.

Rustenburg - "I was very angry this afternoon," a stranger said to Petro van Rensburg on the phone on Tuesday evening, shortly after her mother and stepfather had been attacked and robbed on a smallholding.
Her stepfather, Nier Viljoen, 80, said: "One man shot and Mollie fell. I thought she was dead.
"Her eyes rolled. I helped her to an old chair in the bathroom and there was blood everywhere... so much blood."
The elderly couple - Mollie is 83 - had just finished watching the evening news on television when their small dog began barking.
One of the outside doors of the cottage outside Spruitfontein, near Rustenburg, had been left unlocked because the couple had wanted to let the dog out.
But, the dog didn't go out because there had been light rain.
Nier had gone to see why the dog was barking when he bumped into three men who were inside the cottage. They had guns and a knife.
Wanted the safe
"I don't have much power in my right arm and I hit at them with my left hand.
"One man's gun went off and the cartridge hit me in the face. I didn't feel it," said Nier from his hospital bed on Thursday.
"My wife began shouting and we asked them to take what they wanted, but not to hurt us."
The men wanted to know where the safe was and Nier took them to the bedroom.
"Mollie has a can of gas with which you defend yourself. It was standing on top of the wardrobe near the door. I grabbed it and started hitting at them. A shot went into the ground.
"Then I sprayed. The men started coughing terribly and gasping for breath. I also did, so I grabbed a pillow and pressed it over my face."
The men began running away and Nier went to see what was happening with his wife.
"I wondered what next... All that the thugs stole were our cellphones. I took the car keys, locked the house and went for help."
He went to neighbours who lived about 6km from the house.
Threats on cellphones
Neighbours came from all over to help, and even the Marikana Mine's security division came to help.
"The police were also there very quickly."
Less than an hour after the attack, an unidentified man phoned a neighbour and some of the Viljoens' children on their cellphones.
He said to one of the Viljoens' sons: "The old man doesn't want to pay me."
He also said: "The 'oumiesies' is going to die."

‘Hulle is in beheer, besluit of jy sal leef’
“Hoe meer jy soebat, hoe minder help dit. Maar jy moet probeer om jou eie lewe te red.”
Só het prof. Anna van der Hoven, ’n kriminoloog verbonde aan Unisa, by navraag gesê nadat Beeld gister berig het oor ’n man en vrou van Centurion wat Woensdagaand tydens ’n gewapende rooftog in hul huis herhaaldelik met strykysters gebrand is.
Volgens Van der Hoven sê slagoffers dikwels dat hulle wreedaardigheid en haatdraendheid in hul aanvallers se oë kan sien. “Ek weet nie of dit teruggaan na die verlede en hoekom hulle nie net vat wat hulle wil hê en dan weggaan nie.
“Daar is onderliggende rassistiese elemente. Hulle is dalk ontneem en wil nou wraak neem. Die aanvallers is soms ook nie Suid-Afrikaners nie, maar mense uit ander Afrika-state, waar dit ook gewelddadig is.”
Van der Hoven het gesê dit gee die aanvallers ’n gevoel van mag om mense seer te maak. “Hulle voel hulle kan mense intimideer. Hulle is in beheer en hulle kan besluit om jou te martel en hoe lank jy nog het om te lewe.”
Sy het ook gesê rehabilitasieprogramme in tronke is nie omvattend nie en misdadigers kom dikwels gevaarliker uit die tronk. Hulle kan boonop kies of hulle aan dié programme wil deelneem.
Dr. Johan Burger, ’n senior navorser aan die Instituut vir Sekerheidstudies (ISS), het gesê Suid-Afrika se geskiedenis van geweld kan tot die probleem bydra en geweld word as ’n middel tot ’n doel gesien.
Hy meen geweld kan ook gebruik word as instrument om inligting by slagoffers te bekom.
Hulle gebruik byvoorbeeld geweld om inligting oor kluise of ’n PIN uit slagoffers te dwing.
Volgens Burger is daar ook ’n gaping tussen rykes en armes en kan sommiges wat in uitermatige armoede leef, tot misdaad gedwonge voel.
Die aanvallers voel gefrustreer met hul omstandighede en haal dié frustrasie op slagoffers uit.
Soms verset die slagoffers hulle, of maak hulle selfs beledigende opmerkings en kan dít geweld uitlok.
“Baie keer word sy (die aanvaller se) optrede bepaal deur die slagoffer s’n, hoewel dit nie altyd ’n waarborg is nie.”
Burger het egter gesê in die afwesigheid van doelgerigte navorsing oor die verskynsel, kan daar net bespiegel word.
Die regering het die Sentrum vir die Studie van Geweld en Versoening in 2006 gevra om ’n studie te doen oor waarom misdaad in Suid-Afrikaan met soveel geweld gepaardgaan.
Mnr. Charles Nqakula, minister van veiligheid en sekuriteit, het laas jaar gesê die finale verslag oor die studie sal op die vroegste eers teen die begin van volgende jaar beskikbaar wees.

Johannesburg - "The more you beg them, the less it helps. But you have to try to save your own life."
This was the opinion of professor Anna van der Hoven, a criminologist from Unisa in commenting on a Centurion case in which a man and a woman were repeatedly burnt with a clothes iron by armed robbers.
According to Van der Hoven, victims said they often saw hatred and cruelty in the eyes of their attackers.
"I don't know if that refers to the past and why they don't just take what they want and leave."
"There are underlying racist elements. They were perhaps deprived and want to take revenge."
"The attackers are sometimes not South African, but people from other African countries, where there is also unrest."
Van der Hoven said it gave attackers a sense of power to hurt people.
"They feel they can intimidate people. They are in control and can decide if they want to torture you and how long you have to live."
She added that rehabilitation programmes in prisons were not complete and criminals often came out of jail more dangerous than before. On top of this, they could decide if they wanted to take part in the programmes or not.
Dr Johan Burger, a senior researcher at the Institute for Security Studies, said SA's history of violence could contribute to the problem and that violence was seen as a means to a goal.
He also said that violence could be used as an instrument to get information from victims.
They could use force to obtain information about safes or to get a PIN number from victims.
According to Burger, there was a divide between rich and poor and that some people living in abject poverty could feel they had to commit crime.
The attackers could feel frustrated with their circumstances and then take out this frustration on their victims.
Sometimes victims fought back or even made insulting comments and this could lead to violence.
"Often the attacker's behaviour is as a result of the victim's, but that is not always the case."
Burger said there was a lack of research on this particular topic and one could only speculate about it.

Bid vir ons aanvallers, vra gesin
’N Suid-Afrikaanse egpaar en hul kinders wat in hul huis in Njoro, Kenia, sowat 112 km van Nairobi, deur vyf gewapende rowers met pangas en knopkieries geslaan en beroof is, het gevra mense moet bid vir hul aanvallers.
Mev. Lydia Venter (41) het gister per telefoon aan Beeld gesê haar gesig is met ’n panga van tussen haar oë tot onder haar neus oopgesny. Sy is ook op haar lyf geslaan.
Haar man, Wilco (44), se een oor is middeldeur gekap en hy het verskeie diep snye aan sy kop, rug en lyf.
Maar die gesin sê hulle het geen bitterheid teenoor hul aanvallers nie.
Hul kinders, Maki (15), Joy (10), Stefanus (9) en Timothy (5), is nie in die voorval beseer nie.
Die Venter-gesin is oorspronklik van Westonaria.
Hulle woon die afgelope sewe jaar in Kenia waar hulle sendingwerk doen en ’n klein skool met sowat 100 leerlinge bedryf.
Woensdag omstreeks 02:00 het vyf rowers gedreig om die egpaar se huis af te brand as hulle nie die deur oopmaak nie.
Mev. Venter het die alarm geaktiveer en die rowers het die deur oopgebreek en hulle begin aanval.
“Wilco het soos ’n leeu teruggeba-klei. Een het vir my geskreeu: ‘Ons soek geld’. Toe ek vir hom sê ons het nie geld nie, het hy my met die panga geslaan.”
In ’n stadium het mev. Venter na ’n kamer gehardloop en haar bure probeer bel, maar hulle was nie tuis nie. Die een rower het haar in die kamer gekry en R8,20 gevat wat in haar beursie was.
Mev. Venter het ’n messie gegryp wat sy ’n paar weke gelede vir haar man gekoop het.
“Ek het vir myself gesê ek gaan nie uit sonder ’n fight nie.”
Die rower het haar weer aangeval en die twee het in die sitkamer beland waar haar man nog met die ander rowers gebaklei het.
Joy en Timothy het wakker geword van die geraas en het histeries geskreeu toe hulle sien hoe die rowers hul pa met die panga oor die kop slaan. “Wilco het vloer toe geval en die naam van die Here geroep terwyl Joy histeries geskreeu het.”
Mnr. Venter het hernieude krag gekry en met twee van sy aanvallers se koppe in ’n muur vasgehardloop.
Mev. Venter het ’n kopervaas in die hande gekry en haar aanvaller hard teen die kop geslaan. Sy het toe by die agterdeur uitgevlug.
Binne oomblikke was al hul bure op die toneel – elk gewapen met ’n pyl-en-boog – maar die rowers het met twee selfone en twee handtasse gevlug waarin die kinders se paspoorte was.
“Ná alles het ons nog geloof. Ons gaan hier bly en aanhou bid vir ons aanvallers,” het mev. Venter gesê.

Vrou (48) glo beroof, lyk gevind
’n Man van Glenvista in die suide van Johannesburg het gisteraand sy vrou (48), ’n eiendomsagent, dood in hul swembad aangetref.
Volgens insp. Lorraine van Emmerik van die polisie het die man hulle net ná 19:00 gebel nadat hy haar lyk ontdek het. Sy is glo vroeër die aand by haar kantoor weg met ’n onbekende bedrag geld. Op pad huis toe het sy haar man gebel. Sy was glo angstig en het gesê iets is verkeerd.
Die man het hom huis toe gehaas. Haar motor was nog op die toneel en net die geld word glo vermis.
Die vrou se naam is nog nie bekendgemaak nie omdat al haar naasbestaandes nog nie in kennis gestel is nie.
