Malema wil deskundiges vra om lied te verdedig
Mnr. Julius Malema wil deskundige getuies gebruik om die lied waarin die woorde “skiet die Boer” voorkom, in die hof te verdedig.
Hy het in hofstukke wat by die gelykheidshof in Johannesburg ingedien is, gesê die woord “boer” verwys nie na die “Afrikaner-mense” nie, maar na ’n “verdrukker”.
Malema, omstrede ANC-jeugligaleier, se hofstukke in reaksie op AfriForum se haatspraak-klag teen hom in dié hof behels drie bladsye.
Daarin sê Malema hy het mnr. J.M. Minnie van Lourens De Lange & Minnie-prokureurs in Southdale, Johannesburg, as sy regsverteenwoordiger in dié geding aangestel.
AfriForum het die klag oor die sing van die lied verlede maand by die gelykheidshof ingedien.
Luidens Malema se hofstukke behoort die hooggeregshof in Johannesburg oor die klag te bereg weens verskeie redes:
Die klag “hou verband met ’n saak van nasionale belang”;
Die kern van die klag was volgens hom reeds die onderwerp in ’n ander konteks in dié hooggeregshof;
Die onderwerp van die klag behels kwessies wat ’n invloed op politieke, geskiedkundige en kulturele belange het; en
Die belangstelling in dié dispuut sal waarskynlik ander partye na die hofsaak lok in die vorm van amici curiae (vriende van die hof).
Malema ontken dat hy haatspraak geuiter het of dat hy onbillik op die waardigheid van enige ander persoon wou inbreuk maak.
Hy sê die “beweerde beledigende deel van die lied” moet in dié konteks gesien word: Die lied is deel van die struggle-geskiedenis van die ANC en deel van die vrymakingsgeskiedenis van die land.
Die verwysing na “boer” is “goed verskans en universeel aanvaar in ons land”.
Dié woord is nie ’n verwysing na Afrikaners nie, maar ’n woord “wat ’n verdrukker aandui”.
Malema sê hy gaan sy verweer versterk deur te verwys na deskundige getuies wie se hofstukke binne ’n redelike tyd ingedien sal word.
’n Rigtinggewende verhoor word op 3 Mei in die gelykheidshof gehou om te bepaal hoe die regsproses tussen AfriForum en Malema sal ontvou.
Die Pretoriase hooggeregshof het verlede Donderdag ’n tussentydse interdik verleen het wat Malema verbied om “dubula ibhunu” (“skiet die Boer”) te sing.
Jeugliga: ‘Ons sál sing’
Die ANC-jeugliga stuur op ’n konfrontasie met mnr. Gwede Mantashe af nadat dié organisasie gister met minagting op die ANC-sekretaris-generaal se edik oor die sing van die struggle-woorde “Skiet die Boere” gereageer het.
Mantashe het by Luthuli-huis in Johannesburg bevestig hy het opdrag aan alle strukture van die party – waaronder die jeugliga – gegee om tot tyd en wyl die party ’n finale besluit geneem en bestaande regsgedinge afgehandel is nie die omstrede liedjie “Ayesab’ amagwala” te sing nie.
Hy het eergister reeds aan Die Burger gesê hy het mnr. Julius Malema, leier van die jeugliga, gevra om die gewraakte gedeelte van die liedjie nie te sing nie en om hom van uitlokkende uitsprake en gedrag te weerhou.
Die jeugliga is egter nie van plan om na Mantashe te luister nie en ontken enige opdrag van dié aard is aan Malema gegee. Voorts was daar geen vergadering tussen Mantashe en die jeugleier nie en was daar géén kommunikasie oor die kwessie van die ANC aan sy jeugliga nie, het me. Magdalene Moonsamy, ’n woordvoerder van die liga, gesê.
“Niks verhoed ons om te sing wat ons wil nie. Ons is ’n outonome organisasie wat self kan besluit wat ons sing. Die liedjie is deel van ons erfenis en al wat ons sal keer om dit te sing, is as ons steunbasis self vir ons sê om dit te doen.”
Sy het mnr. Floyd Shivambu, ook ’n woordvoerder, se vroeëre ontkenning gister dat Mantashe en Malema nié vergader het nie, herhaal. “Ek het met die president (Malema) gepraat en hy hou vol daar was geen vergadering nie. Ons neem kennis van die ANC se verklaring. Daar was egter geen kommunikasie van die ANC aan ons oor die kwessie nie.”
Ook die presidensie het by monde van mnr. Zizi Kodwa, ’n spesiale presidensiële raadgewer en voormalige lid van die jeugliga se leierskorps, ontken pres. Jacob Zuma het saam met Mantashe met Malema vergader – óók in teenstelling met die sekretaris-generaal se uitlatings.
Verskeie bronne binne die ANC-binnekring het bevestig daar is ’n woeste debat oor Malema aan die gang. ’n Ingeligte het gesê daar moet nie te veel gelees word in die jeugliga se ooglopende minagting van Mantashe nie.
Hoewel die liggaam dit sê, sal hy die ANC se instruksies nie ignoreer nie. Die astrante houding hou eerder verband met Malema se weersin in Mantashe, wat gesien word as ’n kommunis wat ’n SAKP-oorname van die ANC wil verseker.
Ander ANC-bronne het gesê Malema is onder druk en radikale uitsprake – waaronder die sing van “Skiet die Boere” – asook sy besoek aan Zimbabwe is pogings om die aandag van onthullings oor sy omstrede sakebelange af te trek.
Malema sal die media vandag oor sy besoek aan Zimbabwe toespreek.

SA tourists attacked in Mozambique
Johannesburg - Sixteen South Africans were robbed and assaulted in Mozambique on Monday night, and one of the women was raped.
The robbers also opened the geyser's gas cylinder, allowing gas to leak into the bathroom where the men were being held.
Afrikaans writer Annemari Coetser wrote on her LitNet blog about the attack on her daughter and her family and friends.
Her daughter, Carine van der Westhuizen, said on Wednesday that she and her husband, Pieter, were on holiday with their two children and three other couples and their children.
Staying near Chissibuca
The whole group stayed in two houses at Canda Island near the town Chissibuca. They are all from the Onderberg and Lowveld in Mpumalanga.
"That night at about 19:00 we were getting ready to have supper in the one house. All of a sudden two men burst into the room, armed with a pistol and a teargas pistol, and yelled 'Sleep! Sleep!' I thought it was a joke."
When Carine's husband turned around to lie down, one of the assailants shot him with the teargas pistol.
"My daughter saw how he started to bleed."
The attackers - who were then joined by a third - locked some of the youngest children in one room, some of the women, a man and the teenage children in one bathroom and some of the men in another bathroom.
"They took my husband and I to a room where they tied our hands behind our backs.
"They were very aggressive. The one guy kept saying: 'Money, money'. They were barely able to understand any other English phrases."
At one stage, when the attackers left the room, she and her husband were able to free themselves.
"But when one of them saw us, he kicked me in the face."
That man forced one of the other women to the house next door to look for money.
"He raped her there." Then another assailant tried to rape Carine, but failed.
"They were in no rush - the robbery took more than four hours. They took money and all our electronics as well as all the car keys before they left in a brand new Mitsubishi bakkie."
Carine, whose hands were still tied, then went to the bathroom where the men were and opened the door with her feet.
The camp's management called the police, who were about 50km away, and they were at the scene about 90 minutes later.
"They could only speak Portuguese and said: 'We're sorry, missus.'
"You tend to become slack about security measures when you're in Mozambique - open windows and doors and the like. But you're still in Africa and it's still dangerous. We're just grateful to be alive."
Sestien Suid-Afrikaners is Maandagaand in Mosambiek beroof en aangerand en een van die vroue verkrag.
Die rowers het ook gas uit die geiser in ’n badkamer laat lek waar van die mans vasgebind was.
Die skrywer Annemari Coetser (Oop kaarte, Langverlof en Aan die windkant), het op haar LitNet-blog oor dié aanval op haar dogter en dié se gesin en vriende geskryf.
Me. Carine van der Westhuizen, die dogter, het gister vertel sy en haar man, Pieter, was saam met hul twee kinders en drie ander egpare en hul kinders met vakansie.
Die hele groep het in twee huise by Canda Island naby die dorp Chissibuca gebly.
Almal is van die Onderberg en Laeveld in Mpumalanga.
“Ons het die aand omstreeks 19:00 in die een huis gereed gemaak om te begin eet. Skielik het twee mans, gewapen met ’n pistool en traangaspistool, die kamer binnegestorm en geskree ‘Sleep! Sleep !’ Ek het gedink dis ’n grap.”
Toe mnr. Van der Westhuizen omdraai om te gaan plat lê, het die een aanvaller hom met die traangaspistool geskiet. “My dogter het net gesien hoe hy begin bloei.”
Die aanvallers – ’n derde het intussen bygekom – het van die kleinste kinders in ’n kamer toegemaak, van die vroue, ’n man en die tienerkinders in een badkamer en van die mans in ’n ander badkamer.
“Hulle het my en my man na een kamer gevat en ons hande agter ons rûe vasgebind.
“Hulle was baie aggressief. Die een ou het net heeltyd gesê ‘money, money’. Hulle kon skaars ander Engelse frases verstaan.”
Toe die aanvallers in ’n stadium uit die kamer is, kon sy en haar man hulle losmaak.
“Toe die een dit egter sien, het hy my deur die gesig geskop.”
Dié man het haar vriendin na die huis langsaan gedwing om geld te soek. “Hy het haar daar verkrag.”
Daarna het een van die ander Van der Westhuizen ook probeer verkrag, maar dit nie reggekry nie.
“Hulle was in geen haas nie – die roof het langer as vier uur geduur. Hulle het geld en al ons elektroniese goedere gevat, sowel as al die motorsleutels voordat hulle met ’n splinternuwe Mitsubishi-bakkie weggery het.”
Van der Westhuizen, wie se hande nog vasgebind was, het toe na die badkamer gegaan waar die mans was en die deur met haar voete oopgemaak.
Die kampbestuurder het die polisie, wat sowat 50 km daarvandaan gestasioneer is, gebel en hulle was sowat ’n uur en ’n half later op die toneel.
“Hulle kon egter net Portugees praat en het gesê: ‘We’re sorry, missus’.
“’n Mens is geneig om jou veiligheidsmaatreëls in Mosambiek baie minder streng toe te pas – oop deure en vensters, ensovoorts. Maar dit bly Afrika en dit bly gevaarlik. Ons is net dankbaar ons leef.”
Volgens haar het hulle dae voor die aanval nog “met ’n bier in die hand” op die strand gesit en spottenderwys gesê: ‘Another sh***y day in Africa.’
“Min het ons geweet dit sou ure later waar word.”
Verlede maand het rowers ’n sakeman en bedryfsielkundige van Musina en sy vrou erg aangerand op die eiland Macaneta.

No interdict to stop AWB from carrying old flag yet
JOHANNESBURG - The newly-formed Social Movement Against Racist Tendencies (Smart) will not go ahead with its plans to get an interdict against the AWB from flying the old SA flag at Eugene Terre'Blanche’s funeral on Friday.
The organisation had a meeting with its legal team on Thursday morning and decided it was more appropriate to write a formal letter to the Afrikaner Weerstandsbeweging, asking them not to fly the old flag, Smart spokesman Panyaza Lesufi said.
“We decided we will first write letters to the ANC Youth League and the AWB, asking the ANCYL not to sing the song (containing the lyrics “kill the boer”) and the AWB not to fly the flag at the funeral.
“We believe the letters were a more appropriate and correct approach.”
Late on Thursday Lesufi said Smart was briefing its legal team apply for an urgent interdict to stop displays of the old South African flag at Eugene Terre'Blanche’s funeral in Ventersdorp.
The old South African flag was seen as a symbol of white oppression over the black majority during apartheid and its display considered inciteful in the new South Africa.
Afrikaans groups saw the ANC struggle song “kill the boer” as inflammatory and claimed it was responsible for inciting attacks on farmers.
ANC secretary-general Gwede Mantashe on Wednesday called on the ANC to refrain from singing the song. The ANC Youth League however vowed to continue singing it on Thursday.
Should anybody in the ANC sing the song, Smart would consult its legal team on what action to take.
“We call on all parties to cease hostilities,” he said.
He said Smart had asked for a speedy response from the organisations, so they could decide on whether to go to court or not.
AWB spokesman Pieter Steyn said there was no way they would ask their members not to fly the old flag or vierkleur.
“Tell him he can go to court. We will oppose it. If Julius Malema can ignore the court, so will we. That is the new South Africa.”
Lesufi said Smart would wait for a formal response.
He said Smart was trying to reach political analyst Lebohang Pheko, who was threatened by AWB secretary-general André Visagie in an interview on an eNews programme on Wednesday.
“I'm not finished with you yet,” he told her as he walked off the set.
Smart planned to lay intimidation charges against Visagie.
“We are trying to get the victim and will go ahead with the charges if she gives us the go-ahead.”
He said Smart would only offer to help Pheko if she wished to press charges.
Pheko could not immediately be reached for comment.

ANC appeals interdict
Johannesburg - The ANC launched its appeal against an interdict on singing "shoot the boer" on Thursday, but its call to exercise "restraint" in singing the lyrics remained in force, it said in a statement.
"We find it very unfortunate that when the court heard the matter and came to the unconstitutional finding, the ANC, an interest party central to the matter was neither alerted nor allowed to make an input."
The party "restrained" its members from singing the lyrics "shoot the boer", a chant by a former Youth League president Peter Mokaba, which was inserted in a liberation song "Ayesaba amagwala" (the cowards are afraid).
Afrikaner lobby group AfriForum successfully received an interdict from the South Gauteng High Court in Johannesburg last week on the singing of the three words, pending the hearing of a hate speech application to the Equality Court, which is due to begin on May 3.
The ANC believes the court erred in banning the words in question "irrespective of the time, place, manner and context in which the words are uttered, published or chanted".
The court also failed to consider the Constitutional guarantee of freedom of expression, and that any action should have been directed to the Equality Court.
The ANC also wants the judge to supply reasons for his judgment, and they will be a supplement to Thursday's application.
The action was not related to Wednesday's call for restraint.
"The call made remains in force."
ANC Youth League president Julius Malema pushed the lyrics into the limelight by singing them at a student gathering in Johannesburg in March.
Debate over whether it is a liberation song that should not be taken literally, or whether it incites the murder of farmers came to a head when AWB leader Eugene Terre'Blanche was beaten to death on his farm in Ventersdorp on Saturday.

Malema kicks out BBC journalist - Video
Johannesburg - A journalist at an ANC Youth League media briefing was called a "bastard" and an "agent" by its president Julius Malema on Thursday.
The media briefing was on the Youth League's visit to Zimbabwe.
Malema was criticising the Movement for Democratic Change for speaking out against the visit from its office in Sandton, when BBC journalist Jonah Fisher mentioned that the youth league leader lived in Sandton.
An angry Malema retorted: "Here you behave or else you jump. Don't come here with that white tendency, go out bastard, bloody agent."
"This is not a playground. This is not a beerhall. Don't abuse us in our own space, in our own house... this is my house," he said, referring to ANC headquarters, Chief Albert Luthuli House.
Land reform policy 'courageous'
Malema recently returned from a trip to Zimbabwe to study the effects of "nationalisation" in that country.
Malema hailed Zimbabwe's land reform policy as "courageous and militant".
"Land reform in Zimbabwe has been very successful," he said, adding that the controversial programme was a "very correct method".
Malema said violence, however, should never be used to implement policy. He said this before verbally sparring with the journalist.

ANCYL 'won't obey Mantashe'
Cape Town - A confrontation is looming between the ANC Youth League and Gwede Mantashe. This follows the Youth League's contemptuous response on Wednesday to the ANC secretary-general's instruction about singing the struggle song "shoot the boer".
Mantashe confirmed at Luthuli House in Johannesburg that he has instructed all the party's structures - including the youth league - not to sing the controversial song “Ayesab’ amagwala” until such time as the party takes a final decision and current lawsuits have been settled.
He told Die Burger on Tuesday that he has asked Julius Malema, leader of the ANC Youth League, not to sing the provocative part of the song, and to refrain from provocative statements and behaviour in general.
But the youth league does not intend to obey Mantashe and denies that any such order was given to Malema.
Furthermore, there was no meeting between Mantashe and the youth league leader, and there was absolutely no communication about the issue from the ANC to its youth league, said Magdalene Moonsamy, a spokesperson for the youth league.
"There's nothing stopping us from singing what we want to sing. We are an autonomous organisation which can decide for itself what we will and won't sing. The song is a part of our heritage and the only thing that will make us stop singing it is if our supporters tell us to do so."
Moonsamy repeated what Floyd Shivambu, another spokesperson, said earlier on Wednesday when he denied that there had been a meeting between Malema and Mantashe.
Zuma and Malema deny meeting
"I have spoken to the president (Malema) and he insists there was no meeting. We acknowledge the ANC's statement, but we received no communication from the ANC about the issue."
Special presidential advisor Zizi Kodwa, on behalf of the presidency, also denied that President Jacob Zuma had met with Malema along with Mantashe - this, too, contradicts statements made by the secretary-general.
Several sources within the upper echelons of the ANC have confirmed that a heated debate is currently surrounding Malema.
Another source said the public should not read too much into the youth league's obvious contempt for Mantashe.
Malema under pressure
Although they say they will, the youth league will not ignore instructions from the ANC. The cheeky attitude is more related to Malema's aversion to Mantashe, who is considered a communist who wants to ensure the SACP's take-over of the ANC.
Other ANC sources said Malema is under pressure, and radical statements - including singing the song "shoot the boer" - and his visit to Zimbabwe are attempts to take the focus away from revelations regarding his business interests.
Malema will address the media about his visit to Zimbabwe on Thursday.
