An alleged drug trading hotspot in Fac-treton has concerned residents callingfor action.

Locals say drug deals take place daily infront of a shopping complex on VenturaStreet, with addicts congregating on an openfield next to the strip.A resident, who requested not to be identi-

fied, says deals take place in amatter ofmin-utes, especially during themid-morning andevenings.Thedrugusers thengather onanopenplot

to smoke their purchases.Kensington Community Police Forum

spokesperson Lorenzo Sadan says he, too,understands that drug-related incidentstake place on the plot.“We have not received any official com-

plaints, butwe are aware of the crime takingplace there. The forum has asked police tocarry out more patrols around the intersec-tion.We’re also busy incorporating VenturaStreet into our neighbourhood watchthrough a street committee,” he says.Kensington police spokesperson Warrant

OfficerNtombiNqunqeka saysnoofficial re-ports of drug dealing have been received.“According to our records nobody has re-

ported any drug dealing, yet several arrestsof drug possession have beenmade in the ar-ea,” she confirms.

“Police are doing their regular patrols inthe area so as tomonitor thosewhowere pre-viously arrested for the possession of drugs.Members of the community can report thismatter to the police to prevent this crime,”she says.Iebrahim Isaacs, who often buys groceries

at the complex, haswitnessed thedrugabusetaking place. “You see people smokingagainst thewall of the shopping complex. It’susually a big group of eight or 10,” he says.The open plot does little to dispel drug ad-

dicts, says Isaacs.According to theCity ofCapeTown’sProb-

lem Building Unit, the plot is privatelyowned but a portion of it has been listed asa concern.

The City’s Safety and Security executivedirectorRichardBosman says: “107VenturaStreet is on the unit’s list of properties re-ceiving attention. This property is privatelyowned and will be dealt with in accordancewith the provisions of the bylaw.”Isaacs believes the only way to prevent

crime on the site is to develop it.“The site needs either a fence around it or

it should be developed,” he says.“It would be great to see it turned into a

recreational area for the neighbourhoodchildren, who have to play on the street dueto a lack of facilities.”Numerous attempts by People’s Post to

reach the property owner were unsuccess-ful.

CRIME: GO ONLINE TO TIP OFF COPS

New web to catch crooksA new web page allowing citizens to tip-

off theMetro Police will hopefully helpto get more criminals arrested.

According toCityMaycomember for Safe-ty andSecurity JPSmith over 600 drug-relat-ed arrests have already been made this yearthanks to tip-offs from the public to the Met-ro Police call centre.

Smith says the City of Cape Town is eagerto build on this momentum by providingpeople with another way to tell them whatis happening.

“The web-based tip-off service is the latestaddition in the department’s efforts to inter-act with the public,” he says.

“Our communities have a good sense ofwhat’s going on in their own backyards andwevalue thosewhohave taken it upon them-selves to be part of the solution by feedingthrough solid information that has had verypositive results.”

In the first quarter of this year (Januaryto March), tip-offs from the public resultedin:

V 612 drug-related arrests;V Confiscation of 22 060 units of drugs;V 24 arrests for the possession of unli-

censed firearms;V and the confiscation of 18 firearms;

The bulk of thedrug-related arrestswere made in Manen-berg (82), followed byParow (45), GrassyPark (43), HanoverPark (39), Ocean Viewand Mitchell’s Plain(32).

“Every gun we con-fiscate means one lessweapon for gangstersto use and run ram-pant in our communi-ties. It is frighteningto think we have con-fiscated five firearmsin one week, com-pared to 11 in a three-month period be-tween October and December last year.Many of our successes have come from com-munity tip-offs andwe’d like to appeal to res-idents to continue assisting us as we try tomake our streets safer.”

He says he hopes it spurs others to followsuit and speakout against criminalswhoareholding their communities hostage and feed-ing poison to our children.

“We have the systems in place to ensurethe tip-offs are redirected via the appropri-ate channels for action and we’ve also en-sured it ismobile friendly,whichmeanspeo-ple can access it from any internet-enabledcellphone,” he added.V The tip­off page is available at www.cape­town.gov.za/tipoff. The number for the 24­hour tip­offcall centre is (021) 480 7700.

WOODSTOCK: TAVERN STILL ATTRACTS ‘BAD ELEMENTS’

Pub’s a wellof complaintsNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

Despite the withdrawal of a Woodstocktavern’s liquor licence, police contin-ue to receive complaints of illegal ac-

tivity.Rainbow Tavern’s liquor licence was re-

voked after drugswere allegedly sold on theproperty last year. Anti-social behaviour,fighting, drinking on the pavement androwdy patrons were just some of the issues.The Western Cape Liquor Authority re-

voked the liquor licence with immediate ef-fect on 19 November (“Rainbow Taverndried up”, People’s Post, 28 November 2013).However, complaints against the bar

have not stopped, says Woodstock policespokesperson Sergeant Hilton Malila.“The station has been inundated with

concerns from various people pertaining tothe selling of liquor at RainbowTavern, butfound out that there were no sales of liquoron the premises whatsoever,” says Malila.City of Cape Town’s executive director

for Safety and Security Richard Bosmansays council has had its fair share of com-plainants. “The City has received com-plaints from the community, alleging thatliquor is being sold illegally and that prosti-tutes are frequenting the premises.”Malila says owners may no longer be

serving booze, but it is still being consumedon the property. “The premises previouslyknown as Rainbow Tavern are now beingusedasaplacewherepeople just bring theirown liquor and drink. We also found outpeople are buying their liquor at a nearby

bottle store and just use the premises as adrinking place. We can confirm there areno liquor sales at the premises and duringan inspection at the premises we observedthere are no fridges or any storage of liquoron the premises,” he says.“What is currently happening on the

premises where Rainbow Tavern used tobe, is totally legal, according to theWesternCape Liquor Act,” he adds.Attempts to reach the owner for comment

were unsuccessful. His attorney, Emile vanRensberg, previously told People’s Post theowner had bought the tavern andwas in theprocess of transferring the licence when itwas revoked.Van Rensburg said all the infringements

had taken place under previous ownership,and security measures had been put inplace to prevent illegal activity.Van Rensberg was not available for fur-

ther comment at the time of going to print.Revoking the tavern’s licence has not,

however, cleaned up the streets, saysWood-stock Community Outreach Forum chair-person Shamiel Abbass.“The bad elements are still hanging

around. You still see anti-social behaviourtaking place. It’s difficult, because even ifthey are arrested, they are back the nextday. As an organisation, our hands are tied.“We can ask the people loitering on the

street to move along, but we have no en-forcement powers. It’s in the hands of thepolice. After a few drinks the people getrowdy. We find often those drinking thereharass tourists going to theOldBiscuitMillon a Saturday, begging for change.”

WESTRIDGE: HELP MOM RAISE FUNDS FOR COCHLEAR IMPLANT

Longing to hearLAILA MAJIET

@laila_newsie

When Westridge mom Mishkah Ab-rahams found out her son was se-verely deaf all she hoped for was

that he could have a “normal” childhood.The toddler, a playful little soul, loves

spending time with other children, butstruggles to communicate.

Barely able to sound out a handful ofwords or hear his mother speak, he re-mains cheerful.

Only R400 000 stands between AbdudDayyaan (3) and the ability to hear.

His single mother has to raise funds tohave her son fitted with a cochlear im-plant. The implant for one ear is R275 000,excluding doctor and hospital fees ofR110 000.

While it is hoped the operation will bedone later this year, Abdud Dayyaan isnot on medical aid and his mother willhave to fork out the money to have thecostly procedure done at a private facili-ty.

Due to his age, he was turned awayfrom a State health facility, she says. “Hehad undergone all the necessary tests tosee if he is a suitable candidate for theprocedure. We stayed at the hospital for

two nights only to be told he would haveto have the implant done elsewhere.”

Conditions for eligibility are that animplant must be done before the age ofthree years if a child was born deaf.

The cochlear implant will have to bedone on both ears of the little boy whowas declared deaf at the age of one yearand six months.

However, only one will be done thisyear.

Abdud Dayyaan is enrolled at the Careldu Toit Centre in Parow where he re-ceives speech therapy and he is assistedto improve his oral communication.

He has learned one new word since be-ing enrolled at the school nearly a yearago.

Learning new words can take severalmonths, his mother says. “You have to re-peat the word hundreds of times beforehe even catches on. A lot of time and ef-fort is invested to assist him in learningnew words.”

With profound hearing loss in the rightear, his mother says having an implantfitted is a matter of urgency.

“He was an outpatient at Red CrossHospital since two months old. He had afloppy neck and a spinal problem and wasreceiving physiotherapy. One day I told

the doctor I was concerned that he couldnot yet say ‘mama’ like most children hisage,” she explains. “Tests were done andI was told my son was deaf. It came as ahuge shock. He was a quiet baby, but nev-er had I thought my child could not hear.”

With heaps of potential, Mishkah fearshis hearing impairment will see her son“fall by the wayside”.

“I would like him to go to a mainstreamschool. I believe with a little help he canlearn to hear and speak. These communi-cation tools are essential in life and I onlywant what is best for him,” she says.

Although she knows there is a longroad ahead before Abdud Dayyaan is ableto communicate and listen with ease,Mishkah is optimistic. “I believe he willbe able to speak, read and write if hecould hear.”

Mishkah will be hosting fundraisers inthe build-up to her son’s operation andurges all to attend to help raise the re-quired funds.V The Foundation for Children with a Hearing Lossin Southern Africa has opened a trust for AbdudDayyaan. Funds can be donated to the Foundationfor Children with a Hearing Loss in SA. It is a Stand­ard Bank account. The account number is011794798 with branch code 014845. Use the ref­erence AB/AbrahamsAD.

Troublesome traffic flow around Victo-ria Walk in Woodstock is being as-sessed to find solutions to congestion

and rat-racing.Heavy traffic, speedsters and commuters

attempting to dodge traffic on Nelson Man-dela Boulevard are just some of the irrita-tions residents face, prompting ward coun-cillor Brett Herron to commission a trafficflow assessment.

“Traffic flow in this part of Woodstock iscomplicated and the cause of aggravationto the residents. The issues include rat-run-ning and speeding. The assessment and thereport I am waiting for will determine thesolutions we will take back to the communi-ty,” he says.

Woodstock Improvement District opera-tions manager John Julies says congestionalong Victoria Walk is linked to heavy traf-fic on Woodstock’s main roads, namely Vic-toria and Albert roads.

“We had an accident on Victoria Walkjust last week. Because the road is narrowand cars park on both sides, there isn’tenough space for cars to pass each other.Peak hour congestion across Woodstock ishectic, with most cars stuck in stop-start

traffic,” he says.A lack of parking across the suburb is al-

so a real problem, Julies says.“People park everywhere on the street,

even in front of businesses. There is a needfor more parking, but where do you put it?”he says.

Julies has reservations about the assess-ment bringing any solutions.

“Arrows and new traffic lights havehelped and Law Enforcement officers areregularly on duty, but that hasn’t stoppedthe amount of traffic,” he says.

Upper Woodstock Residents’ Associationchairperson Grant Quixley says recent traf-fic restrictions to curb rat-racing in Walm-er Estate have added to the congestion onVictoria Walk and surrounding streets.

“The traffic flow assessment must beviewed in the context of the traffic restric-tions in Walmer Estate, which have pushedtraffic into Woodstock, via Victoria Walk.Rat-racing is an issue throughout Wood-stock and has been a concern for a longtime, but has been raised most recently dueto the added traffic caused by the restric-tions in Walmer Estate,” he says.

Herron has not yet received an indicationof when the report will be completed.

“I hope that our subcouncil will receivethis in the coming months,” he says.

Super League Arace heats upLIAM MOSES

@LiamCPT

Hamiltons RFC will resumetheir charge for silver-ware when they face

Primrose in a crunch SuperLeague A clash at the StephenOval this weekend.

Hammies came within touch-ing distance of a trophy with athird place finish in the Com-munity Cup earlier this yearand have started the league likea side intent on going the fulldistance this time.

The Sea Point side haveclaimed full points in both theiroutings so far, beating third-placed Victorians 31-28 andthrashing basement dwellersKuilsriver 38-21 last weekend.

South Africa’s oldest clubwill be keen to make it threefrom three this weekend, whilePrimrose will hope to rediscov-er the form that saw them domi-nate Super League B last year.

The Kenilworth club havebeen undone by a leaky defenceand are 10th on the table, afterrecording just one win, a drawand two losses this season.

Roses beat Tygerberg 16-15,lost 22-27 to Helderberg, drew

35-35 with Victorians and wentdown 11-49 to UCT.

Hammies should be toostrong for Primrose and willlikely walk away with a com-prehensive win.

Constantia side False Baywill also be in action on Satur-day, travelling north to faceDurbanville-Bellville.

Bay are placed fourth on thelog, with 16 points gleaned fromthree wins in five games.

The victories came againstSK Walmers, Kuils River andBelhar, while the losses weresuffered to Stellenbosch Uni-versity sides Victorians andMaties.

Their opponents have beatenUWC 36-3, lost 12-17 to Matiesand pummelled Tygerberg 54-17.

False Bay are inclined to playa wider game and could havetoo much firepower for Durb-Bell, if they can match thehosts’ physicality and the rainstays away.

But with Durbies just threeplaces below and keen to re-store their challenge for a spotin the Community Cup and theSuper League A title, False Baycan expect an onslaught.
