Bejaarde egpaar vertel van angsoomblikke, nadat hulle deur groep gewapende mans by huis beroof is

Dankbaar hulle lewe

Attack leaves municipal manager shaken up - page 3

Wat vir die 82-jarige oom Frikkie Knoetze die ergste was, was toe die gewapende mans die 81-jarige tan-nie Lettie, sy vrou, na buite dwing en hy nie geweet het of hy haar weer lewend gaan sien nie.

Die gewapende roof by die Knoe-tze-egpaar se familiebesigheid, Mar-lene’s Kwekery in Louis Trichardt, het Saterdag, 28 Februarie, vir beide skok en woede gesorg. Die nagmer-rie het ongeveer kwart voor een die middag begin ontvou.

Oom Frikkie en tannie Lettie het buite hul woonhuis, aan die agter-kant van die kwekery, saam met hul dogter Alice (61) en dié se man, Pieter Oosthuizen (65), gekuier. Meteens het hulle gille van hul arbeiders in die kwekery gehoor.

Onmiddellik het hulle besef dat daar groot moeilikheid is. Tannie Lettie, Alice en die huishulp het die huis in gevlug. Binne sekondes was ‘n groep van vier of vyf gewapende mans egter by die sekuriteitshekkie wat die huis en kwekery skei. Dié het hulle oopgekry en oom Frikkie en Pieter is beveel om op hul mae te lê. “Jy is magteloos ... Wat kan jy doen as drie 9mm-pistole op jou gerig is!?” het ‘n steeds getraumati-seerde oom Frikkie Maandag aan die Zoutpansberger gesê. Eweneens was tannie Lettie steeds baie ontsteld en emosioneel oor die aanval.

Soos wat tannie Lettie-hulle die

huis in gevlug het, het hulle die kombuis-, gang- en kamerdeur, waar hulle gaan skuil het, gesluit. Die gewa pende aanvallers, almal in hul twintigs, het die kombuisdeur oop-geskop, waarna hulle oom Frikkie, Pieter en al die kwekery se arbeiders die huis in geboender het. Soos wat hulle deur die huis beweeg het, het die rowers die een na die ander deur oopgebreek – tot in die kamer waar tannie Lettie-hulle geskuil het.

In die kamer, tot oom Frikkie se benoudheid, het twee van die mans vir tannie Lettie gegryp en haar terug-geneem na die kwekery, waar sy die kluis moes oopsluit. Ook in die kamer het die drama voortgeduur, waar hulle vir Alice gedwing het om die kluis in die huis oop te sluit. Daaruit het hulle geld en oom Frikkie se handwapen gesteel. Dit was duidelik dat die aan-vallers geweet het van die twee kluise.

“Die hele tyd was die mans met sel-fone in kontak met mekaar,” sê oom Frikkie. Hulle was baie aggressief en het Engels, Venda en Sotho gepraat. “Daar was een wat die hele tyd vir my pa gesê het: Old man, I am going to shoot you!” sê oom Frikkie se seun, Franna. Hy was uitstedig ten tye van die aanval.

In ‘n poging om die situasie te ont-lont, het Pieter deurlopend die mans probeer kalmeer. “Hy het vir die mans gesê: ‘Ons het nog geld, bring net eers die ou vrou terug’. Met dié het die een ‘n oproep gemaak en kort daarna het hulle tannie Lettie teruggebring,” sê

oom Frikkie.By die kamer teruggekom, het die een

man tannie Lettie so hard met sy pistool se kolf teen die kop geslaan dat sy op die bed neergeval het. Ook Alice is teen die kop geslaan. “Hulle het baie tyd gehad en was seker ‘n halfuur met ons besig. Hulle

het geweet wat hulle doen en het sommer so in een beweging jou beursie en juwele van jou afgevat,” sê oom Frikkie.

Ná wat soos ‘n ewigheid gevoel het, is almal in die kamer beveel om op die vloer te gaan lê, nadat hulle met cable ties vasgebind is. Oom Frikkie en tannie

Lettie is egter toegelaat om op die bed te lê. “Dit was toe dat die een man sê: ‘Let’s shoot them!’ “ sê oom Frikkie. Genadig-lik was een van die aanvallers egter baie meer beleefd gewees. “Ek vermoed hy was die leier.

Tannie Lettie se beserings was Maandag nog duidelik sigbaar. Weens die trauma van die aanval is daar besluit om onmiddelik, na 35 jaar van diens, die kwekery te sluit. “‘n Mens se lewe is egter meer werd as ‘n kwekery. Dank die liewe Vader Hy was by ons,” sê oom Frikkie.

Deur Isabel Venter

The Werda Toyota team last week thanked Mrs Netshosumewa from the Vhembe TVET College for the college’s support. The college bought 15 brand new Toyota Corollas from Werda. In the photo is the college team with Mr Eddie Schlesinger (dealer principal) and some of the new Corollas.

Wat is ‘n maaltyd of sportgeleentheid sonder ‘n vleisie op die kole of ‘n lekker stuk bees-biltong?

Vleisliefhebbers sal bly wees om te hoor dat Hennie Graham weer terug is in die bedryf. Sy meterlange biltongstukke het oor die jare vir hom bekendheid verwerf in die dorp, en is gesog onder sy kliënte.

Hennie is aan die begin van die maand aan gestel as die vleisbestuurder van die A1 Slaghuis, geleë buite die dorp. Die slaghuis is ongeweer 8 km uit op die Levubu-pad.

Dit beteken egter nie dat kliënte in die dorp bekommerd hoef te wees oor die afstand wat hulle moet ry om vleis die A1 Slaghuis aan te koop nie, aangesien Hennie ook afl ewerings doen. Kliënte is ook steeds welkom om self die slaghuis te besoek.

By Hennie, wat al jare se ondervinding in die bedryf het, sal kliënte verseker wees van kwaliteit vleisprodukte en persoonlike diens teen regverdige pryse. Hennie kan bees- of wildsvleis bewerk. Behalwe vir week- en naweekpakke, sal Hennie ook sy bekende lang biltong, droëwors, chilli bites en hoender te koop aanbied.

Vir meer inligting of om ‘n be stel ling te plaas, kan Hennie geska kel word by 082 871 8863 of 073 666 1294.

(Vervolg van p. 1)“Hy het dit duidelik gestel dat

niemand geskiet sal word nie,” sê Franna.

Nadat die mans uit die kamer is, het hulle die families se bak-kiesleutels gegryp en was in die proses om die bakkies te probeer steel, toe twee manskliënte daar opdaag. Die klank van die kliënte se skielike stemme het blykbaar die aanvallers ontsenu en hulle het te voet op die vlug geslaan. Die twee kliënte het deurgestap na die huis toe en geklop. Oom Frikkie was toe reeds besig om almal los te sny en het vir die mans geskreeu dat hulle sopas beroof is. Hulp is dadelik ontbied en tannie Lettie het mediese behandeling ontvang vir ‘n oogwond.

Vir Franna was dit duidelik dat die aanvallers vir ‘n geruime tyd die kwekery dopgehou het. “Van ons arbeiders het ná die aanval vir ons kom sê hulle het twee van die mans herken. Hulle was blykbaar verlede Dinsdag oor etenstyd by die kwekery en

het doelloos rondgestap. Toe een van die arbeiders vir hulle vra of sy hulle kan help, het hulle vir haar gesê dat hulle net kyk en later sal kom koop,” sê Franna. Net een van die ro wers was gemasker en almal het handskoene gedra.

Afgesien van die trauma waardeur die familie gegaan het, het die aanval ‘n verdere hart-seer nadraai gehad, met Franna wat besluit het om onmiddellik die kwekery te sluit. “Misdadi-gers dink nie daaraan dat hulle optrede mense hulle werk kos nie. Ons weet almal wat die ekonomiese omstandighede is. Ons het die plek probeer aan die gang hou vir my pa en ma en het mense wat al 30 jaar vir ons werk. Hierdie mense sit nou sonder werk. Mense mag dink ek het oorhaastig besluit om te sluit, maar ek soek dit nie op my gewete as so iets weer gebeur nie,” sê Franna.

Vir oom Frikkie is die besluit om te sluit eweneens hartseer. Hy sou kon aanbly by die kwe-

kery, maar noem dat tannie Lettie niks daarvan wil weet nie. “Jy weet, Desember verlede jaar was ons 35 jaar by die kwekery ... nou is alles net verby. Weet jy hoeveel kliënte het al vir ons gesê ons moet nooit toemaak nie, want dan is hulle verlore. ‘n Mens se lewe is egter meer werd as ‘n kwekery. Dank die liewe Vader Hy was by ons,” sê oom Frikkie. Terselfdertyd het hy namens die Knoetze-familie al hul gereelde kliënte bedank vir hul ondersteuning deur die jare. “Dit is ‘n móét sluit, en nie lekker nie,” sê hy.

Franna het almal bedank wat sy ouers en familie bygestaan het. Hy het veral hoë lof gehad vir die Soutpansberg Dorpswag, wat binne twee minute nadat hulp ontbied is op die toneel was. “Ek kan dit nie genoeg beklemtoon hoe belangrik dit is vir mense om aan te sluit by die dorpswag nie. Mense moet betrokke wees, want die situasie kon Saterdag baie maklik anders gewees het!” sê Franna.

Omstandighede by die nuwe verkeersirkel net suid van Louis Trichardt is besig om op ‘n ramp af te stuur.

Hierdie sirkel by die Elim-kruising sowat 5 km buite die dorp is in gebruik geneem aan die einde van November 2014. Sedertdien was daar al amper meer as 100 ongelukke.

Die Zoutpansberger het verlede Vrydag ‘n vinnige besoek aan die sirkel gebring, en dit was duidelik dat sommige padgebruikers op die N1 soms deur die sirkel, in stede van óm die sirkel, gaan. Die eiland binne-in die sirkel het amper soos ‘n skrootmetaalwerf gelyk, met verskeie motorbuffers, wieldoppe en plat verkeerstekens wat die wêreld vol lê.

Die koerant se besoek het gevolg nadat daar verlede Donderdag, 26 Februarie, sewe motor-ongelukke in ‘n kort tydjie na mekaar by die sirkel aangemeld is. Volgens ‘n ingeligte bron, wat graag anoniem wil bly, is dit omdat die Suid-Afrikaanse Nasionale Padagentskap (SANP) nie hul elektrisite-itsrekening betaal het nie.

Die SANP het sedert November hul eie agent aangestel wat verantwoordelik is vir die onder-houd- en instandhoudingswerk by die sirkel. Sedertdien het hulle nie hul elektrisiteitsrekening by die Makhado Munisipaliteit vereffen nie, en toe die rekening by die R19 000 kerf kom, het die mu-nisipaliteit die ligte afgesit - die spreiligte wat vir

motoriste in die aand moet waarsku van die sirkel.Mnr. Jack Oosthuizen van die 3 Mile padstal-

letjie by die sirkel, sê daar is maklik meer as 10 ongelukke in ‘n week as die ligte af is en net drie tot vier as die ligte aan is. Motoriste sien nie die sirkel in die aand as dit nie verlig is nie. Hy sê hy het sedert Augustus verlede jaar meer as ‘n 100 ongelukke by die sirkel getel.

Die koerant verneem die munisipaliteit sukkel al lank met die SANP. Eers het die munisipaliteit gekla dat hulle die ligte dag en nag laat brand. Die munisipaliteit het later self ‘n kontrakteur aange-stel om ‘n dag-en-nag skakelaar te installeer om elektrisiteit te bespaar.

Die SANP het by navraag erken daar is ‘n paar “administratiewe verskille” tussen hulle en die Makhado Munisipaliteit. Meer as dit wou hulle nie uitwei nie. Die algemene bestuurder van kommu-nikasie by SANP, mnr. Vusi Mona, het Woensdag bevestig dat die agterstallige rekening vereffen is. Hy het nie gesê wanneer die SANP die rekening vereffen het en of daar ‘n afbetalingsooreenkoms met die munisipaliteit aangegaan is nie.

Intussen is die elektrisiteitstoevoer na die sirkel al verlede Vrydag herstel, nadat lede van die ge-meenskap ook die munisipaliteit gaan vra het om vir SANP uitstel te gee. Waarskuwingstekens wat deur motors omgery is, was teen druktyd nog nie vervang nie.

36 Maart 2015ZOUTPANSBERGER

By Andries van Zyl

The Makhado Municipality, through its spokes-person Mr Louis Bobodi, this week confi rmed that municipal manager, Mr Sakkie Mutshin-yali, is still trying to get to grips with what he can only describe as a failed attempt on his life a fortnight ago.

According to information available to the Zout-pansberger, the attempt occurred late on the after-noon of Saturday, 21 February. Being fond of the farming life, Mutshinyali stays on a homestead near the Cloud’s End Hotel just outside Louis Trichardt. He believes in living an active life and frequently goes jogging in the afternoons. His decision to do so on that day changed his life forever.

Mutshinyali granted the Zoutpansberger an interview on Monday regarding the events of that fateful day. It was not easy for him to talk about it. “When people focus their eyes on you to eliminate you, you do not feel comfortable,” Mutshinyali said. He acknowledged, however, that the incident should be reported upon.

In the days leading up to the attempt on his life, numerous people reported spotting a suspi-cious-looking black VW Golf slowly frequenting the farm roads in the area. “On the evening of the 20th, I drove back to town to pick up my child from school. About 600m from my home, I also spotted the Golf, which was driving very slowly. When we reached the N1, he turned left and I turned right,” Mutshinyali said.

The following day, Mutshinyali had to attend a funeral in the morning, returning home in the afternoon. Just after 17:00, he decided to go for a jog. “At the curve in the road at Willie Scheepers’ farm, I saw a neatly dressed man, obviously not a farm worker, walking. He asked me if he could get access to Willie’s compound to get water as his car had overheated. I showed him the gate,” Mutshinyali said. The man went in to collect water, while Mutshinyali continued on his jog, passing the suspicious Golf parked next to the road.

“As I came back, I saw that the car was still parked there and thought to myself that I should at least stop and assist,” Mutshinyali said. At that

stage, there were fi ve people at the car - Mutshin-yali, the owner of the Golf and three of Scheepers’ farm workers.

“I asked the man what the problem was and he indicated that his vehicle was overheating. When I asked him where it was overheating, he pointed to the bottom of the car. That did not make sense. If the car had overheated, he would have pointed to the radiator in front of the engine,” Mutshinyali said.

Mutshinyali got suspicious and asked the man where he was really going when Mutshinyali fi rst spotted him. “He told me he was looking for this guy who works for the municipality and gives ten-ders, indicating that he was sent there by a woman,” Mutshinyali said.

Immediately when the man told him this, two more men appeared from the bushes next to the road. They were also neatly dressed and clearly not farm workers. Mutshinyali said he thought that they would pass by, but the two men stopped at the car. They were now seven people. At that stage, Mutshinyali was still in conversation with the man he had initially spotted, trying to fi nd out who had sent him and what he meant by “the guy giving tenders”. He told the man that if he wanted a tender, he should go to the municipality and follow pro-cedure. During their conversation, one of the two men who had come from the bushes continuously interrupted the conversation. “I ended up asking the guy what his problem was,” said Mutshinyali.

The moment Mutshinyali asked the man this, he turned around, opened the rear door of the Golf, took out a handgun and cocked it. At that stage, Mutshinyali was not even standing a metre away from the man. “He swore and pointed the fi rearm at me,” Mutshinyali said.

Mutshinyali and the farm workers immediately ran for cover into the bushes. “I did not look back. The only thing I wanted to do was to get as far away as possible from the men. I am a 50-year-old man who had just run six kilometres and I was tired,” Mutshinyali said.

Mutshinyali made his way back to his home,

from where he alerted the police. “I must thank the police. They were there within 20 minutes,” Mut-shinyali said. By that time, however, the suspects had already fl ed the scene.

Mutshinyali, a deeply religious man, afterwards refl ected on the day’s events. “If he had had the intention to kill me, he could have. Maybe it was an intervention from God. I cannot explain why he did not shoot me. Maybe they wanted to kidnap me but realised there were too many eyewitness. The farmworkers’ presence really saved my life,” Mut-shinyali said. Later he heard that the farm workers had decided to walk back with the man who had asked them for water as they became suspicious when they saw a huge knife strapped to the man’s waist. “When they asked him what it was for, he said he used it to eat apples,” Mutshinyali said.

Mutshinyali said he was overwhelmed by the support he received from the community after the attack. This, he said, was a real eye-opener. “My house was full of white people, by number more than the police, wanting to protect me,” Mutshinyali said. He had high regard for the quick and profes-sional way the farm watch responded and the self-less effort they made to secure his safe-ty. He also had p ra i se fo r his fellow congrega-tion mem-b e r s o f the Agapé Church , e s -pecially pastor Grant and his wife, who con-soled and supported him after the attack. “Thank you, also, Susan Coroto and Marika de Villiers. They immediately went into prayer

for me,” Mutshinyali said.Mutshinyali also thanked Mayor David Mu-

tavhatsindi. “He phoned every two hours to fi nd out how I was doing,” Mutshinyali said. Support also streamed in from members of the ANC’s regional and provincial committee.

“To all the people who consoled and supported me, I would like to thank you. I feel like I have joined a good family,” Mutshinyali said.

The Makhado police confi rmed the incident last week, stating that they had opened a case of the pointing of a fi rearm. By the time of our going to press, it was not known if any arrests with regard to the case had been made. In the

meantime, securi-ty measures in the Cloud’s End area have been inten-sifi ed. “Extra pre-cautions are being

taken by both the farm watch and the

police,” Mutshinyali said.

Hofnuus

Deur Isabel Venter

Die leraar van Louis Trichardt wat teregstaan op ‘n klag van bedrog en oortredings van die Vuurwapenwet het verlede week weer in die plaaslike hof verskyn.

Dr. Philip Arnoldus Venter (58) en die twee ander getuies in sy saak het aangevoer dat die Makhado Polisie se wapenkantoor al vir jare wan-bestuur word en in chaos is.

Venter word daarvan aangekla dat hy geduren-de April 2006, onder valse voorwendsels, besit geneem het van drie van mev. Cecile Steyn se vuurwapens. Hy sou haar glo onder die indruk gebring het dat hy ‘n geregistreerde wapenhan-

delaar was. Al drie wapens het intussen vermis geraak, met Venter wat aanvoer dat hy dit vir sy oorlede vriend, mnr. Tewie Wessels, gegee het om te deaktiveer. Ná Tewie se dood in 2009, het Venter egter in 2010 in twee briewe aan Steyn erken dat die wapens steeds in sy besit was, met die nodige bergingspermitte (539-vorms).

Venter het in Februarie hierdie jaar, tydens sy kruisondervraging, erken dat hy die outeur van die briewe is, maar dat die bewoording verkeerd was, omdat hy dit in ‘n tydperk van geweldige persoonlike stres geskryf het. Verlede Donderdag het Venter, op verdere vrae van die hof, gesê dat

Saak teen leraar sluit ná laaste getuienis

Dr. Philip Venter op die foon tydens ‘n kort verdaging van die hof verlede Donderdag in die Louis Trichardt Distrikhof, waar hy teregstaan op klagte van bedrog.

hy die briewe geskryf het om Steyn gerus te stel oor haar vuurwapens.

Venter het weer aan die hof gesê dat hy homself as die eienaar van die wapens geag het, alhoewel die wapens nie fi sies in sy besit was nie. Hy het ook nie die wapens as vermis by die polisie aangemeld nie, want hy het gehoop “dit sou nie nodig wees nie, en weer na vore kom.”

Ná die hof Venter klaar ondervra het, het mnr. Petrus Phillipus Visser (alombekend as Peet) vir Venter begin getuig.

Visser se getuienis is voorlopig deur die hof toegelaat, al het dit ooreengestem met die beëdigde verklaring waarmee Venter se advokaat ‘n aansoek gebring het vir die herroep van ‘n Staatsgetuie in sy voorlaaste hofverskyning in Februarie. Dié aansoek is afgekeur, nadat die hof bevind het dat Visser se verklaring oor die wyse waarop die polisie wapenlisensies hanteer het, nie betrekking het op Venter se saak nie.

Die hof het verlede week gesê Visser se getuienis kom deurmekaar voor, en dat dit nie net die polisie was wat gefouteer het nie. Visser kon self ook seker maak dat sy permitte reg aan hom uitgereik is. “U het uself maar eintlik genooi na die partytjie,” het die hof aan Visser gesê.

Behalwe dat Visser getuig het oor lt.kol. Bez Bezuidenhout van die polisie se plaaslike vuur-wapenkantoor se swak hantering van Visser se eie persoonlike wapenlisensies, het hy ook getuig dat dit destyds ‘n algemeen-bekende feit was dat die polisie se wapenkantore regoor die land in wanorde was.

Visser het ook gesê dat dit na sy mening verkeerd was van die polisie om nie afskrifte van 539-per-mitte te hou nie, al is daar geen wetlike verpligting op die polisie om dit te doen nie.

Visser het ook getuig dat hy die dag by was toe Venter Steyn se wapens aan Wessels oorhandig het, nadat Wessels eers bergingspermitte daarvoor aan Venter getoon het.

Tydens kruisondervraging van die Staat het Visser egter erken dat hy net die permitte op ‘n afstand gesien het en dat hy eintlik maar aange-neem het dat die wapens wat Venter aan Wessels oorhandig het, dié van Steyn was. “Ek het mos die wapens vantevore gesien toe die dominee gesê het ek moet daarna kom kyk toe hy dit gekry het van Steyn ... ek het gesien dit is twee rewolwers en ‘n handwapen en geweet dit is Steyn se wapens,” het Visser getuig.

Visser het glo dié dag wat Venter die wapens gekry het, gesien daar was 539-permitte op Venter se lessenaar. Hy het onder kruisondervraging erken hy het nie gekyk vir watter wapens dit uitgereik was nie.

Ná Visser het Wessels se eks-vrou, me. Senta Wessels, ook getuig. Sy is ná haar man se afsterwe as eksekuteur van sy boedel, wat sy wapens inge-sluit het, aangestel.

By nadere ondersoek, het Senta getuig, kon sy nie Steyn se wapens in haar man se kluis kry nie. Sy het ook verder getuig dat Tewie nie altyd sy wapenkluis se sleutels by hom gehad het nie, en dat daar R4 000 kontant net na Tewie se dood uit die kluis weggeraak het.

Senta het verder ook getuig dat sy in dié tyd ‘n klagskrif teen Bezuidenhout ingedien het by die polisie se onafhanklike klagtedirektoraat, omdat hy nie aan haar tydelike bergingspermitte wou uitreik vir al Tewie se wapens nie. Haar klag is nie ondersoek nie, omdat sy langer as ‘n jaar geneem het om dit in te dien, en sy het ook nie op die di-rektoraat se advies ‘n saak gemaak by die plaaslike stasiebevelvoerder nie.

Ná Senta se getuienis is Venter se saak gesluit. Daar is besluit om die Staat en die verdediging tot 12 en 19 Maart kans te gee om skriftelike betooghoofde by die hof te liasseer. Hierna sal die Staat op 23 Maart kan repliek lewer, en die hof sal dan na verwagting op 7 Mei uitspraak in die saak kan lewer.

Mode-gier of tragedie wat lê en wag?Kontaklense kan ‘n mens nie net beter laat sien nie, maar ook ander mense twee keer laat kyk.

Kosmetiese kontaklense, wat nie jou sig verbeter nie maar bloot jou oogkleur feller laat vertoon of vreemd of monsteragtig verander, is die jongste gier onder Louis Trichardt se inwoners. Die meeste verbruikers van dié soort kontaklense, het die koe-rant verneem, is jongmense wat van vreemde kleure tot dier-oë prentjies dra.

Die mode-lense, Eye Voodoo, word vir die afgelope maand te koop aangebied. Ouers is egter bekommerd oor die gebruik van die kontaklense en dit blyk dat hulle rede het om bekommerd te wees. ‘n Vinnige Internet-soektog wys talle gevalle van wat verkeerd kan gaan as dié kontaklense gebruik word.

Die gebruik van enige kontaklense gaan gepaard met die verhoogde risiko van bakteriële infeksie. ‘n Plaaslike oogkundige sê verder dat die risiko meer algemeen is by geleentheidsgebruikers.

Die Zoutpansberg-er het by me. Sanri du Plessis van SpecSav-ers op Louis Trichardt gaan kers opsteek oor die kommer wat die mode-kontaklense vero-orsaak. Haar grootste bekommernis is dat die meeste tieners met hul oë dobbel en hul lewens op die spel plaas.

Tieners, verduidelik sy, gebruik dikwels die lense as ‘n modebykomstigheid en nie noodwendig omdat hulle swaksiende is nie. Daarom dink hulle ook nie dit is nodig vir ‘n oogtoets nie. Dit beteken dat die streng higiëniese voor- en nasorgmaatreëls van kontaklensgebruik nie aan hulle verduidelik word nie. Volgens Du Plessis kan kontaklense nie verkoop word sonder ‘n afspraak met ‘n oogkun-dige nie; veral nie aan tieners of eerste gebruikers nie. Dit is om seker te maak elke kliënt gebruik die regte lense vir sy of haar oog en dat daar verseker word dat hulle weet hoe om dit reg in te sit en uit te haal, asook hoe om dit te versorg. Meestal is die newe-effekte net ongemak en geïrriteerde oë, maar as ‘n tiener dalk uit onkunde sy lense in water afs-

poel, kan dit tot ernstige infeksies soos bakteriese keratitis ly. “Dit kan ‘n kind se dood veroorsaak of lei tot ‘n kornea-oorplanting, waarvoor mens tot twee jaar moet wag,” sê Du Plessis.

Die Zoutpansberger het ook met mnr. Fanie Curry, wat die invoerder van die Eye Voodoo-lense is, gepraat, en hy het oogkundiges se waarsku-wings as bangmaakstories afgemaak. Hy voer die lense vanaf Korea in en vertel dat hy in die drie jaar wat hy dit regoor die land verkoop nog nooit ‘n klagte ontvang het nie. “Kom ek sê vir jou, oogkundiges het ‘n probleem met ons lense, want ons is goedkoper en vat besigheid weg van hulle af,” het Curry gesê.

Volgens Curry is sy lense vir enige iemand. El ke paar lense wat verkoop word, verduidelik Cur ry, word vergesel van ‘n pamfl et wat in detail

vir kliënte verduide-lik hoe om die lense in te sit en dit higiënies te versorg. “Ons gaan eint lik ‘n stappie verder as oogkundiges in die pam flet en gee soveel as moontlik inligting, so dat kliënte versigtig moet wees.”

Curry sê die kontak-lense wat hy verkoop, word van ‘n hoë kwali-teit hydrogel gemaak wat 100% veilig is vir die oog en UV-besker-ming bied. “Dit is nie

die goedkoop gemors wat mens op vlooimark te kry nie.” Op ‘n vraag rondom wetgewing wat die verkoop van kontaklense reguleer, het Curry prontuit erken dat nie hy of sy verskaffers daaraan voldoen nie. Volgens die Gesondheidsraad van Suid-Afrika mag net geregistreerde oogkundiges of dokters kontaklense (voorskrif of kosmeties) verkoop. Die enigste reël wat Curry en ander verko-pers soos hy het, is dat kinders jonger as 13 nie hul lense mag dra nie, en tot en met die ouderdom van 16 moet ouers toestemming gee.

Daar was weliswaar nog nie ‘n plaaslike geval van tieners wat ‘n kontaklens-infeksie opgedoen het nie, maar volgens Du Plessis is daar vele gedokumenteerde gevalle en is dit nie net “bang-maakstories” nie.

By Andries van Zyl

The investigation into allegations of fi nancial mismanagement and corruption, which led to the suspension of the Makhado Municipality’s manager of fi nance dealing with expenditure in December last year, is still ongoing.

“I am expecting that the investigation will be concluded soon,” said Mr Sakkie Mutshinyali, municipal manager, on Monday.

News of the investigation fi rst surfaced at the beginning of January this year. According to in-formation available to the newspaper at the time, the investigation followed allegations of corruption regarding the procurement process of tenders, the alleged forging of signatures and payments being made to tenderers without their actually rendering the services they had tendered for. Mutshin-yali was made aware of these allegations and he, as accounting officer, immediately appointed a company to investigate the allegations.

Following the com-pany’s submission of a preliminary report to Mutshinyali regarding their investigation, ru-mours started to surface that several high-ranking municipal offi cials had been suspended with regard to the report’s fi ndings. Confi rming these rumours, however, proved diffi cult at fi rst. It was only when rumours started to surface that Mutshinyali himself had been suspended, that the municipality was quick to react. In January, they denied that Mut-shinyali was ever suspended and only confi rmed the suspension of the manager of fi nance dealing with expenditure.

It would later transpire that the rumours of Mutshinyali’s suspension had nothing to do with his possible involvement regarding the allegations being investigated. It would seem it had more to do with his decision to appoint a private company

to investigate the allegations without Council’s approval. Apparently, this did not sit well with a couple of municipal offi cials and councillors.

In January, Bobodi said they did not know where the rumours about Mutshinyali’s suspension were coming from. It was, however, clear that Mutshin-yali found himself in hot water for his decision to appoint a company to investigate the allegations. He was asked to submit a report on the procedure he had followed that had led to the suspension of the fi nance manager in question. This report was to serve before Council, but it never went that far.

On Monday, Mutshinyali supplied the Zoutpans-berger with a copy of the decision of the municipal-ity’s executive committee (EXCO) on the matter.

Handled as a confi den-tial item during their meeting on 29 January (Item CB.8.29.01.15), Council recommended: That the report be with-drawn from the Council agenda, since it is an administrative matter that does not require Council’s interference and that administration be afforded an opportu-

nity to fi nalize the investigation and report back to the political component through available channel communication. “This proves that Council and its Exco were happy with the way the municipal manager had handled the case. That is why they even said that they don’t want to interfere into the function of the accounting offi cer … I acted correctly,” Mutshinyali said. He confi rmed that the manager in question was still suspended with full pay until the investigation was fi nalized. In the meantime, an acting manager of fi nance was appointed in the expenditure department.

Regarding the investigation itself, the possibility of more municipal offi cials’ getting suspended is not being ruled out.

“I acted correctly,” says municipal manager

“This proves that Council and its Exco were happy with

the way the municipal manager had handled the case. That

is why they even said that they don’t want to interfere

into the function of the accounting offi cer …”

Sarah toe nie dorp se nuutste miljoenêr nieLouis Trichardt het weereens ‘n multi-miljoenêr opgelewer, bygesê as daar enige waarheid geheg kan word aan die brief wat mev. Sarah du Toit Dinsdagoggend ontvang het.

Sarah se man het die brief aan haar oorhandig ná ‘n vroeg-oggend besoek aan die poskantoor. Daar was geen twyfel vir wie die skrywe bestem was nie, want haar volle naam en van, asook per-soonlike posadres, het in ‘n netjies handskrif op die koevert verskyn.

Sarah het die koevert oopgemaak en weereens was daar geen twyfel aan wie die brief binne-in geadresseer was nie, want daar het duidelik gestaan: To Ms Sarah du Toit. En kan iemand so gelukkig wees! Sy blyk te wees die gelukkige erfgenaam van ‘n boedel van digby die agt miljoen Britse Pond!

“I’m barrister Clip Harrison, the lawyer to late James du Toit, a national of your country (South Africa) and a gold merchant here in London. Here in after shall be referred to as my client. On 27th May 2011, my client and his wife were involved in a car accident. All occupants of the vehicle un-fortunately lost their lives. Since then I have made several inquiries to your embassy to locate any of my clients extended relatives this has also proved unsuccesful,” begin die brief te lees onder ‘n brief-hoof van “Harrisons Attorneys & Conveyancers” in London. Barrister Harrison vertel van sy ontberinge om die naasbestaandes van sy kliënte op te spoor. Hy het self die internet gebruik om die van “Du Toit” te soek, maar sonder sukses. Hy het toe maar self Suid-Afrika toe gevlieg op soek na ‘n persoon met die van Du Toit. Hy het besoek afgelê by die Johannesburgse Sakekamer en het ook die Depar-tement van Handel en Nywerheid gekontak, maar uiteindelik het die geluk hom getref. “With the information I got from the above office, I decided to write and post you this letter. I decided to send this letter by post considering the confidentially involved,” lees die brief.

Maar ai, êrens in die proses het die lyn tussen reg en verkeerd egter bietjie onduidelik geraak vir Barrister Harrison. In die brief noem hy dat hy weet Sarah is nie bloedfamilie van die arme dooie James nie. Hy raai haar aan om so spoedig moontlik te maak of sy familie van James is, anders gaan hulle die geld verloor aangesien die bank dit gaan opeis. Al wat hy van haar benodig is haar volle name,

fisiese adres, haar ouderdom, beroep en posisie en ‘n telefoonnommer waar sy geskakel kan word. In ruil daarvoor sal hy die geld met haar deel – 30% vir hom en 70% vir Sarah. “All I require is your honest cooperations to enable us to see this deal throught (sic),” skryf Barrister Harrison.

“Dit was so tempting ... maar ek het besef dit is ‘n slenter. Wat vir my scary was, was die feit dat die persoon soveel van my persoonlike inligting gehad het,” sê Sarah. Slenters soos hierdie is volop op die internet via e-pos. Mense wat vir die slenter val en in korrespondensie met die booswigte tree, word dan vir maande aan ‘n lyntjie gehou. Telkens moet die slagoffer geld oorbetaal vir hierdie en hierdie dokumente, of om die geld los te kry en wanneer hulle agterkom hulle word bedrieg, is dit reeds te laat.

Wat egter vir Sarah omkant gevang het, was dat dit aan haar persoonlik in ‘n brief geadresseer was. Meer vreemd was dat die koevert geen posstempel opgehad het nie, net ‘n Suid-Afrikaanse posseël met haar adres daarop. Vir haar het dit beteken dat iemand plaaslik die brief moes gepos het, maar hoe kon die poskantoor dit in haar posbus plaas sonder dat die posseël deur die poskantoor gekanselleer is?

Die voorval is onder die aandag gebring van plaaslike posmeester mnr. Dries Rossouw. Hy is deur die Zoutpansberger gevra om te verduidelik hoe die brief in die posbus kon beland het. Vir hom was dit ‘n ernstige saak.

“Die kruks van die saak is dat ‘n posseëls wat nie deur die poskantoor gekanselleer is nie, nie in ‘n posbus mag beland nie,” het Rossouw gesê. Hy vermoed die brief is êrens in die Suid-Afrikaanse posdiens se sisteem ingesorteer, aangesien ‘n Suid-Afrikaanse posseël op die koevert geplak is. “Dit is egter moeilik om te bepaal waar dit geb-eur het. Dit kan hier wees of in Polokwane,” het Rossouw gesê. Volgens hom kan dit ook gebeur dat iemand die brief van buite, indien die posbus nie meer behoor lik kan toesluit nie, ingedruk het. “Hoe dit ookal sy, dit is ‘n onreëlmatigheid en ek gaan definitief met my mense hieroor praat,” het Rossouw gesê.

Intussen word inwoners gemaan om nie te val vir hierdie “ongelooflike meevallers” nie en te werk op die beginsel van: As dit te goed klink om waar te wees, dan is dit te goed om waar te wees.

Louis Trichardt se nuutste kits-miljoenêr? Mev. Sarah du Toit met die brief wat sy ontvang het waarin sy versoek word om haar voor te gee as die enigste erfgenaam van ‘n Londense miljoenêr.

Three more police officers were arrested for allegedly helping to smuggle stolen vehicles across the South Af-rican border.

The three officers, stationed at the Pafuri port of entrance, were apprehend last Thursday. According to provincial police spokesperson Col Ronel Otto, they had allegedly received money in exchange for their help to smuggle the vehicles into Zimbabwe.

Shortly after their arrest, WO Mukondeleli Mutele (45), Const Percy Baloyi (30) and Const Cynthia Masete (32) appeared in the Louis Trichardt District Court on charges relating to

bribery and corruption. Otto could not confirm the duration of the alleged smuggling, or how many other police officers were paid to help the three suspects.

Mutele, Baloyi and Masete were caught in a police trap that was set for them as part of a year-long investigation.

After their brief court appear-ance, Mutele and Masete were both released on R7 500 each. Baloyi, who allegedly received a second bribe and was charged twice, was released on R15 000 bail (R7 500 on each count).

Otto said the investigation into the alleged smuggling continued and would deter-

mine how many stolen vehicles had been smuggled across the border.

All three accused immedi-ately paid their bail. Their case was postponed until 27 March for further investigation. In the meantime, Mutele, Baloyi and Masete will be suspended, pending an internal police in-vestigation.

In December last year, 19 Limpopo policemen were ar-rested for allegedly helping to smuggle illegal cigarettes. Fol-lowing their arrest, Lieutenant General Fannie Masemola, the provincial police chief, said there was no place for corrupt members.

Three people died instantly when a double-cab bakkie overturned on Sunday evening near Levubu. The vehicle was apparently transport-ing at least 11 people from a church in Mahonisi when a tyre burst.

The remaining eight people were all admitted to Elim Hospital, some with minor injuries sustained during the accident.

A young boy, a woman and a man, who could not be identified immediately, died instantly during the accident. The vehicle was apparently travelling from Mahonisi along the Masia road to the Vuwani area. The Levubu police are investigating an inci-dent of culpable homicide.

The police have yet again urged motorists to check the condition of their vehicles before travel-ling. “We are appealing to motorists to ensure that their vehicles are in good condition at all times,” said W/O Solly Mukhola.

Three die after bakkie overturns

The Department of Health has just started the first round of the 2015 campaign to vaccinate girls against the Human Papil-loma Virus (HPV).

This year, the campaign targets all girls who are nine years and older and in Grade 4, as well as those born in 2005 attending special schools.

The MEC for Health, Mr Ish-mael Kgetjepe, has called upon all parents to give consent for their children to be vaccinated

“as this would ensure that they are protected from being prone to cervical cancer in the later stages of their lives.”

He mentioned that the success of the previous campaign was due to the cooperation between parents and the department of basic education, “as well as all other partners who have made a meaningful contribution through-out the campaign.”

During the launch of the cam-paign in March last year, a total

of 2 406 schools were targeted and 2 029 were reached. In Sep-tember 2014, out of a target of 2 406 schools, 2 202 schools were reached..

“Parents should know that HPV vaccine provides protec-tion against cancer of the cervix, caused by HPV type 16 and 18, which are primary causes of cervical cancer. Teams started visiting schools from 20 February and the campaign will end on 23 March this year,” said Kgetjepe.

Campaign to vaccinate girls against HPV

In die foto en berig in verlede week se Zoutpansberger van oom Hansie Uys is daar verkeerdelik aangedui dat hy heel links op die rugbyfoto op bladsy 23 verskyn. Die foto is van Hoërskool Louis Trichardt se eerste rugbyspan in 1947. Oom Hansie sit inderdaad heel voor tweede van regs. Die persoon heel links is inderwaarheid ‘n persoon met die naam Hendrik Klopper. Hy het op 21-jarige ouderdom teruggekeer skool toe om sy matriek te voltooi. Na skool, in die vyftigerjare, was hy ‘n publieke aanklaer in Potchefstroom. In ‘n saak waarin hy aanklaer was het die aangeklaagde ‘n tuisgemaakte bom in sy baadjie versteek. Hy het die bom geaktiveer en Hendrik, die aangeklaagde en ‘n verkeerskonstabel is in die ontploffing dood. Foto verskaf.

Soutpansberg se geliefde tannie Martie oorlede‘n Jarelange inwoner van die Soutpansberg, tannie Martie Eloff, is Dinsdagmiddag (24 Februarie) in die ouderdom van 86 jaar oorlede.

Tannie Martie (voorheen Jäckel, née Cronjé) is gebore in George in die Weskaap, maar het as jong kind saam met haar ouers en broer Helgard na Louis Trichardt verhuis. Haar broer, Attie, en susters, Kotie en Alet, is kort daarna gebore.

In Desember 1950 is tannie Martie getroud met Erich Jäckel, die seun van Duitse sendeling en skrywer Martin Jäckel, en kleinseun van Helene Franz, stigter van die Helene Franz-hospitaal in Bochum. Die egpaar het in 1953 die plaas Heimat in die Soutpansberg gekoop en beide hul seuns het daar grootgeword. Ná Erich se dood in 1981, het tannie Martie ‘n posisie aanvaar by Schoemansdal Veldskool, waar sy tot met haar aftrede ‘n geliefde lid van die administratiewe personeel was. Sy is in 1996 weer getroud, met oom Manie Eloff van die plaas Klipput naby Bandelierkop.

Tydens die Paasnaweek in 1999 is tannie Martie swaar getref deur tragedie toe haar jongste seun, Carel, verongeluk het op die R522-pad buite Louis Trichardt. In 2008 het sy haar ander seun, Waldie, ook aan die dood afgestaan, met oom Manie wat haar in 2010 ontval het.

Wyle tannie Martie word oorleef deur haar susters Kotie en Alet, kleinkinders Marlene, Ilze (Reinier), Erich en Andrie, en agterkleindogters Elzebé en Ireney, asook die Eloff-familie en ander

vriende en familie. Haar begrafnisdiens het Vrydag, 27 Februarie, vanuit die NG Kerk Louis Trichardt plaasgevind, waarna sy op die familieplaas Abend-burg te ruste gelê is. Die familie bedank graag Ons Tuiste wat na haar omgesien het en almal se medelye en belangstelling.

You need deep pockets to stay hereMusina is one of the most ex-pensive towns to live in if you have to rent a property.

This is according to the latest quarterly rental index released by PayProp, an automated trans-actional platform for the South African property management industry.

PayProp is endorsed by the Institute of Estate Agents and sets the standard for speed and accuracy of payments, cost and payment status transparency, complete transactional control, and regulatory compliance. Their

rental index is based on extensive research that tracks a series of indices from real-time trans-action data to provide the only comprehensive view of the state of the residential rental market.

According to this index, the border town north of the Sout-pansberg is the fourth-most expensive town, with an average rent of R17 634 per month.

PayProp CEO Louw Lieb-enberg said that he initially ex-pected Gauteng and the Western Cape to lead the pack in terms of average rentals, and the fact

that towns in Limpopo such as Lephalale and Musina are com-ing out top is a result of demand outstripping supply. “It is another remarkable example of rapid industrial expansion in an area with low rental supply, causing dramatic shifts in the market,” he said.

Lephalale (formerly Ellisras), another mining town and where Eskom is building its Medupi power station, is the most ex-pensive area to rent. The average amount of rent paid for property there is R23 327.

Die Weg, die Waarheid en die Lewe

Openbaring 3:14-22

Ek wil vandag ‘n eenvoudige vraag vra: Wanneer jy sterf en voor die

hemelpoorte staan, wat sal jy antwoord op die vraag: “Waarom behoort jy toegelaat word om die hemel in te gaan?” Ek hoop jy ken die antwoord op hierdie belangrike vraag, want jou saligheid hang daarvan af.

God, die groot Regter, sien ons soos ons is - as sondaars. As ons voor die hemel staan geklee in ons sondes sal ons nie toegelaat word om in te gaan nie. Ons moet op so ‘n manier geklee wees dat God nie ons sondigheid sal sien nie. Hoe kan dit gedoen word?

Ons Skrifgedeelte praat van sonde wat bedek word, en die bedekking wat ons nodig het is die geregtigheid van Jesus Christus. Ons vuil klere van sonde is nie goed genoeg om die hemel in te gaan nie, ons het klere nodig wat deur God gemaak is.

Toe Adam en Eva gesondig het, besef hulle dat hulle naak is. Hulle was skaam oor hul naaktheid en sonde voor God. Die Here maak toe vir hulle klere. (Gen. 3:21)

Die gelykenis van die verlore seun praat van ‘n sondige kind wat hom bekeer en na sy pa toe terugkeer, en bely hy het teen God en sy pa gesondig.

Die pa nooi sy seun in, maar nie dadelik nie, hy was nog geklee in sy vuil klere, ‘n herinnering aan sy sondige verlede. Toe sê die pa vir sy werks-mense: “Bring klere, die beste, en trek dit vir hom aan.” (Luk. 15:22). Toe gaan die seun die huis binne.

Is jy al geklee in die wit klere van Jesus Christus se geregtigheid waarvan Openbaring 3:18 praat? Jeremia 23:6 noem Jesus “Die Here ons geregtigheid” (OV)

Die ja-woord is gevra en gegee en nou is Daisy hard aan die beplan vir die troue van die jaar. Tussendeur gaan die lewe egter voort en Daisy en Bernard moet die uitdagings van elke dag vierkant in die oë kyk. Dit is egter moeilik vir Daisy om verby die sterre te sien.

BRIEWE / LETTERS

“Bernard, wil jy ‘n jagluiperd as ‘n ringdraer hê?”

“Mmmm...” Bernard kyk krieket.“Of wil jy dalk borde breek op ons troue?”“Uhhh...”“Sal jy vir my sing terwyl jy my tegemoet-

loop met ‘n rooi roos? Iets soos ‘Another one bites the dust’... En kan ons die grootste denkbare vuurwerkvertoning hê, hier so teen die hange van die Soutpansberg?”

“Hoe nou Daisy?” Iewers het iets deurgedring.

“Nee, sommer niks nie my geliefde aansta-ande. Ek soek sommer net ‘n resep vir mo-paniewurm vingerhappies...” Daisy bars uit van die lag, gooi die Sondagkoerante eenkant toe en gee ‘n verbaasde Bernard tien soene orals op sy gesig.

Bernard is skielik vreeslik ernstig. Hy skuif regop op die bank en frons as hy Daisy reguit in die oë kyk.

“Daisy, hierdie verlowing kom eintlik op ‘n slegte tyd. Nes die wêreldbeker krieket. Ons het so baie werk dat ek nie regtig weet hoe ons by alles gaan uitkom vóór ons nog trou nie. En toe het jy en jou Ousus nog sowaar derduisende

plante met wit blomme gaan staan en aankoop – nou moet dit ook nog versorg word!”

“Op die oomblik is my oorsese verpligtinge drasties minder, maar die een internasionale kontrak wat ons gekry het vereis dat ek baie meer tyd in Kaapstad moet spandeer. En ek vermoed jy gaan ook maar moet pendel saam met my!”

“Kaapstad? Kaapstad? Is jy ernstig, Ber-nard? Ek is versot op Kaapstad...” jubel Daisy. “Daar is die coolste restaurante en winkels en die mense is vir my soos lede van my long-lost tribe... Waar gaan ons bly? Ons moet seker bly-plek kry – mens kan nie vir lang tye in hotelle en sulke plekke wees nie...”

“Ag tog,” sug Bernard. “Hierdie is nou weer ‘n hele nuwe jamblik vol wurms. Ons gaan wérk, daar Daisy. Niks toerismedinge tot na die gastehuis oop is en op volle produksie nie. Jy weet mos ons het reeds besprekings tot in 2016.”

“Fokus, Daisy! Jy doen so goed met die pro-jekbestuur van die gastehuis, jy moet asseblief tog net nie nou fokus verloor nie. Ons is nie meer spring chickens wat onsself kan oorgee aan pienkerige verliefde wolkies nie – ons het daadwerklike verantwoordelikhede!”

“Pienk wolkies, sê jy Bernard?” Daisy se stem is gevaarlik koud. “Fokus verloor, Bernard?”

“En hoe sou jy gevoel het as ek nie in die minste opgewonde was oor die vooruitsig om te trou nie? Verwag jy regtig ek moet besadig wees

daaroor? Buitendien is dit amper ‘n voltydse beroep om deesdae een troue te beplan. En ons gaan twéé troues hê! Of verwag jy miskien dat ek liewers soos jou snobvriende ‘n wedding planner moet aanstel?”

Bernard sug.“Daisy, ek het nie bedoel om jou gevoelens

seer te maak nie. En nee, beslis nie die een of ander drama queen met slap gewrigte wat troues uitryg wat almal dieselfde is nie! Daarvoor is jy heeltemal te oorspronklik en kreatief – een van die vele redes hoekom ek jou lief gekry het! Ek wil net hê jy moet die volle prentjie sien, Daise. Jy kan partymaal so bietjie afdwaal van die ern-stige dinge met al jou malstreke... Hierdie keer kan dit tot chaos lei.”

“Jy weet, Bernard, die lewe is nou nie eintlik regverdig nie! Hier kom die hele fairy tale vir my waar en ek het sterre in my oë en as ek na jou kyk voel dit asof die hele legende van Camelot lewendig geword het... En nou moet ek groot wees. En verantwoordelik wees.”

“Ek sien ‘n soft focus prentjie van wit skoen-lappertjies en babakatjies op groen weivelde en ‘n prinses wat in stadige aksie deur wit blom-lande huppel... En nou wil jy hê ek moet Miss Effi ciency wees met ‘n iPad en ‘n gatskophou-ding?”

“G’n vrou weet ook deesdae meer wat van haar verwag word nie...” murmereer Daisy en stap druipstert en afgehaal kombuis toe om haar wynglas vol te maak.

A suspected rapist had the tables turned on himself last Wednesday when his victim started fighting back. He ended up in hospital after an-other person arrived at the scene and knocked him on the head with a stone.

A 41-year-old woman from Dzanani (Biaba) in Nzhelele described to the Zoutpansberger this week how she battled with the man who allegedly attempted to rape her. She was on her way to her place of work in the early morning hours when the man approached her. She explained that she works at an electrical installation project and needs to be there early in the morning. On her way to work, she passes through some bushes near Tshirolwe village.

The sun had just started to rise when the alleged

Woman turns the tables on would-be rapist

rapist approached her with a knife in his hand. He threatened to stab the woman if she did not follow his instructions. According to the lady, the man told her that he wanted to rape her and instructed her to go into the bushes.

The man ordered his victim to undress and stand in a position that would assist him to commit the evil deed. The woman, however, opted to wait for a suit-able opportunity and fight back. She managed to push the knife away from the man when he started to pull down his pants. She then grabbed him by the testicles while simultaneously

screaming for help. “I shouted for help and con-tinued to pull him, hoping someone would see us and call the police,” she said.

A man who was passing by heard the screams and rushed to the woman’s assistance. From what could be gathered, he took a stone and hit the al-leged rapist on his head. He then called the police, who arrived shortly afterwards and made an arrest.

The suspect was charged with an attempted rape but was initially admitted to Siloam hospital as a result of the injuries he suffered during the incident. On Saturday, he was transferred to the Polokwane provincial hospital, since his condition had wors-ened. The police confirmed the incident and said a 37-year-old suspect was in custody.

Ben, seun van Willie van der Merwe en Mercia van Tonder, en Jeanette Rademeyer, dogter van Michael en Mariaan Rademeyer, het Saterdag, 28 Februarie, op die plaas Hermanus te Mopani in die huwelik getree. Foto verskaf.

Weer tyd vir gewilde Sanlam Kanker-reeks

The organisers of the Sinthumule-Kutama Easter Sports Challenge, Mamu Community Sports Development, expressed their thanks to M Premjee & Son Cash and Carry for their continued support in sponsoring local sports games and promoting projects by the youth. Photographed during the ceremony are (from left to right) Cllr David Davhana, Mr Shyam Premjee, Ms Violet Nesamari (chairperson) and Mr Jafter Mamugudubi (general secretary). The Easter tournment will once again take place this year after M Premjee & Son Cash and Carry decided to renew their sponsorship.

Kort op die hakke van sy besonderse prestasie tydens die nasionale bergfietsreeks se wedren op Sabie twee weke gelede, het CP van Wyk die afgelope naweek ook beïndruk tydens die 2015 Cape Town Cycle Tour MTB Challenge. Hy het deelgeneem aan die 55 km-wedren en was die eerste nie-professionele fietsryer oor die eindstreep in ‘n algehele tiendeplek uit 712 fietsryers in ‘n tyd van 02:27:42. Foto verskaf.

Al hierdie leerlinge van die Laerskool Louis Trichardt het na afloop van die streek se atletiekbyeenkomste gekwalifiseer om op 6 Maart deel te neem aan die Limpopo Atletiekbyeenkoms in Polokwane.

Plaaslike gholfers kan solank regmaak vir die jaarlikse Sanlam Kanker Uitdaagreeks wat in Maart regoor die land afslaan.

Hierdie jaar betree dié gewilde reeks ‘n nuwe fase en sal daar gefokus word op die voordele van ‘n vroeë kanker diagnose.

Vanjaar se klubkompetisies skop in Maart af en sal weer eindig met die nasionale eind-toernooi in Oktober by Sun City, waar die algehele kampioene in die verskillende afdelings gekroon sal word. Die groot doelwit van die projek is om fondse in te samel om KANSA by te staan in sy stryd met navorsing oor die gevreesde siekte.

Verlede jaar is R3.4 miljoen ingesamel en se-dert die projek in 1991 afgeskop het, raak-raak die totale bedrag amper aan R40 miljoen wat oor die jare ingesamel is.

Hierdie jaar sal die gholflegende, Ernie Els, weer as beskermheer van die projek optree. Els het hom boon-op daartoe verbind om ‘n rondte gholf

saam met die wenners te speel en ‘n besoek aan sy wynkelder belowe.

“Statistieke wat van KANSA verkry is, dui daarop dat een uit elke vier mense kanker sal kry. Deur dit vroeg te laat diagnoseer, kan een uit elke drie mense dit oorwin.

As in ag geneem word dat meer as 35 000 mense in sowat 800 klubkompetisies verlede jaar aan die Uitdaagreeks deelgeneem het, kan ‘n derde van die deelnemers ‘n goeie kans staan om die siekte vry te spring. Daardie boodskap gaan ons baie hard en duidelik uitdra in vanjaar se kompetisie,” het Gary van Loggerenberg, Sanlam se bemarkingsbestu-urder van die projek, gesê.

Klubkompetisies moet teen einde Julie afge-handel wees, waarna die streekrondtes in die verskillende provinsies in Augustus sal plaasvind. Plaaslike klubs kan aanlyn meer inligting bekom deur na die www.sanlamcancerchallenge.co.za skakel te gaan.

Die Soutpansbergtak van die Bosveld Jagters- en Wildbe-waringsvereniging (BJV) bied op Saterdag, 7 Maart, hul eerste skietdag aan, wat sal bepaal wie as 2015 se Skut van die Jaar aangewys sal word.

Alle belangstellendes word uitgenooi om saam te gaan skiet.

Vir die wat net wil gaan kyk hoe word dit gedoen, sal die toegang gratis wees.

Die skietdag sal plaasvind te Franzhoek skietbaan. (Net voor die tonnels, op pad na Musina). Die kompetisie sal begin om 08:00 en daar sal geskiet word tot 15:00. BJV-lede sal gratis kan

deelneem, terwyl nie-lede R50 per volwassene en R20 per kind sal moet betaal vir hul deelname.

Daar sal die dag bane wees vir pistool, .22 en grootgeweer.

Vir verdere navrae kan Jannie van Zyl gekontak word by 072 0816 340.

Laerskool Louis Trichardt se rugbymannetjies sal voortaan met spoggerige nuwe rugbytruie op die veld draf. Dit is danksy ‘n groot skenking van nuwe rugbytruie vir al nege van die skool se rugbyspanne (van die Bulletjies tot die eerstespan) deur Bridge Ford in Louis Trichardt. Die oorhandiging van die truie het verlede Donderdagmiddag by die skool plaasgevind, tot groot opgewondenheid van die spelers en hul afrigters. Al die skool se spanne se nuwe truie lyk dieselfde, behalwe vir die eerstespan, wat hul eie unieke truie kry. Die skool het hul opregte dank uitgespreek teenoor Bridge Ford vir die borgskap. In die foto verskyn die skool se eerstespan met hul nuwe truie. Heel agter staan die span se afrigters, Koos Alberts (links) en Phillip Potgieter (tweede van regs), saam met Rampie Gilfillan van Bridge Ford (regs).

Die tweedespan en hul afrigters vertoon trots hulle nuwe truie. Regs voor is afrigter Renier Fourie en links agter afrigter Nollie Davel. Ook agter (tweede van regs) staan Greg Stewart (die skool se sporthoof) en Rampie van Bridge Ford (regs).

Laerskool Louis Trichardt se afrigters het ook almal nuwe truie ontvang as deel van Bridge Ford se borgskap. Van links na regs staan Nollie Davel, Greg Stewart (sporthoof), Rampie Gilfillan (Bridge Ford), Phillip Potgieter (voorsitter van die skool se rugbyklub), Renier Fourie en Koos Alberts.
