ROBBERY: LATEST HOLD UP IN TYGERVALLEY SOWS FEAR AMONG RESIDENTS
No safe havens left
MICHELLE LINNERT
@linnertmb
T
here are nomore safe havens in this ci-
ty.
This seemed the overall sentiment of
patrons of the TygerValley ShoppingCentre
who have taken to social media since Mon-
day to make clear their discontent after the
armed robbery at a popular family restau-
rant.
The Spur in the shopping centre was rob-
bed by fivemennear closing time on Sunday
evening.
The robbers posed as clients, thenwent on
to hold the staff and patrons up before flee-
ing with cash and digital goods.
A spokesperson for the mall, Laretha
Blom, confirmed toTygerBurger the robbers
had fired one shot at security guards giving
chase, then fled in a silver vehicle.
Some of the comments on TygerBurgers
Facebook page included one from Cheryl
Willemse, asking: When will this madness
end??? (sic)
Stefan Eksteen said: Theyre gonna eat
us! Im going to Australia. Sad and angered.
Next youll see diners with glocks and 9 mm
at the tables. Feeling concerned.
Ivan Vanhooydonck said: No ways. Its
getting closer to our doorstep, with Tracey
Lee Appolis Johannes adding: And we ate
here a few nights ago! Scary.
Ruth Slabbert Frazer said in Afrikaans:
One is not safe anywhere in the country
anymore. Spur is not seeing me again
soon...
Rita Nightingale said she remembered
how in the 1980s there were security guards
and metal detectors at the entrances to all
stores. Somuchmoney is spent to turn cen-
tres into alternative shopping havens, (but)
incidents like these cause these havens
lights to dim.
Kerisha Naidoo thought the robbery was
simply insane!.
Hadlay Mclean said none of his friends
had heeded his warning to steer clear of the
steer chop shop: I keep telling you people
to stay away from Spur. No one ever listens.
Sucks that this happened though. Hectic.

Francois Phillip van Zyl felt the community
needed to take action. Well, we need to start
fighting back... That is going to be the only
way.
These were just some of the hundreds of
comments posted as the story published on
the TygerBurger website started spreading
on Monday.
In the meantime, police have had no luck
making any arrests.
Provincial police spokesperson Captain
Frederick van Wyk said the (getaway) vehi-
cle was later spotted in Nyanga by members
of the police.
The suspects tried to evade the police and
they shot at police members and a chase en-
sued, said Van Wyk.
He said the car stopped at the corner of
New Eisleben and Klipfontein Roads where
the suspects jumped out and fled on foot.
Some of the stolen items and cash were
recovered. It was found that the Golf was hi-
jacked inMitchells Plain on Friday 6 Febru-
ary.
He asked the publics help to find the per-
petrators.
Police are investigatingabusiness robbe-
ry, attempted murder and hijacking cases
and request anyone with information that
could lead to the arrest of the suspects to ple-
ase contact Crime Stop on 08600 10111.
Dan Plato, provincial community safety
minister, said the only way to get rid of the
scourge of business robberies, was to invest
heavily in additional security measures.
Weare veryworried about the increasing
number of robberies at centres.
This shows a great measure of desperati-
on from the syndicates to lay their hands on
money no one is excluded from their greed.
Added security measure will come at a
great cost, but this is the price we will have
to pay to get rid of this scourge. It is in every-
ones best interest, Plato said.
D
aar is nou 151 minder mense op straat
sedert die Stad Kaapstad se depart-
ment van maatskaplike ontwikkeling
en vroe kinderontwikkeling se straatmen-
se-program verlede jaar ingegryp het om
straatmense van die straat af te kry.
Gedurende die laaste kwartaal van 2014
het personeel van die department wat aan
die program verbonde is, 90 mense na skui-
lings of assesseringsentrums verwys, 32 is
bygestaan met gesondheidsorg en ander
maatskaplike dienste en 29mense ismet hul
gesinne herenig.
Eenvandimense is n 62-jarigeman, oor-
spronklik van die Oos-Kaap, wat langs die
R300-deurpad gebly het. Die man is in Okto-
ber 2014 deur een van die program se veld-
werkers ontdek. Hy het sewe jaar op straat
gewoon.
N die man se omstandighede ondersoek
is, is hy in die Beaconvale-gemeenskapsver-
sorgingsentrum in Mitchells Plain opge-
neem. Di veldwerker het toe saammet per-
soneel van die sentrum en die Stad se wets-
toepassers begin soek na die man se gesin.
Die man het jare gelede Kaapstad toe ge-
trek om werk te soek, maar toe hy niks kon
kry nie, het hy sy gesin se huis verlaat en
op straat gaan woon, omdat hy gevoel het
dat hy nie meer vir hulle kon sorg nie, s
Suzette Little, lid van die burgemeestersko-
mitee vir maatskaplike ontwikkeling en
vroe kinderontwikkeling.
Omdat hy uit die Oos-Kaap kom, het ons
aanvanklik baie gesukkel om sy gesin op te
spoor, maar ons het geluk getref toe n be-
soeker aan Beaconvale die man herken het
en ons s kon help om sy familie op te
spoor.
Die man is op 31 Desember uit die sen-
trum ontslaan en is saam met sy broer en
ander famlielede terug na die Oos-Kaap.
Die program se hoofdoel is om so veel as
moontlik mense van die straat af te kry en
te keer dat ander mense op straat gaan bly.
Maar hulle kan dit nie alleen doen nie, en
vra mense wat vermoed dat n familielid op
straat woon, om na vore te kom.
V Rig navrae aan die Straatmense-inbelsentrum by
0800 872 201.

Amotorcyclist (52) was eventually arrested
after he tried to avoid traffic officers on
Thursday by speeding off from road blocks
in the Bellville/Stikland area.
The biker, who was later found to be in-
ebriated, racked up a whole list of charges
after he refused to stop during joint operati-
ons between traffic services andMetro Poli-
ce, a City statement said.
The motorcyclist refused to stop when
ordered to do so bymembers of traffic servi-
ces Ghost Squad,who noticed that his num-
ber platewas coveredwith insulation tape,
the statement said.
As if speeding away with a taped-over
number plate wasnt enough, the driver col-
lided with one of the traffic vehicles after
being chased for 15 minutes.
This finally brought the biker to a stop.
He was found to be twice over the legal
blood-alcohol limit and was arrested for
drunk driving, reckless and negligent
driving, defeating the ends of justice, failing
to stop, resisting arrest and malicious da-
mage to property.
It also emerged that the suspect, from
Bellville, is an unlicensed driver, the state-
ment said.
Others who were arrested over the wee-
kend, included those in Eerste River and
Bellville South, during operations focusing
on illegal drag-racing.
According to the statement, ...officers ar-
rested two motorists: one for reckless and
negligent driving and another for drunk
driving. The drunk driver was found with
a glass in hand and claimed it was cool-
drink, but officers soon established that it
was alcohol and, when testing the motorist,
they found that he was three times over the
legal blood-alcohol limit.
Traffic services arrested 42 more moto-
rists on charges of drunk driving at various
roadblocks, including one in Kraaifontein.

n Man en n groepie vroue het glo verlede
weekdie rugsakke geteikenvannasorgleer-
ders en atlete wat smiddae op die skoolter-
rein van die Laerskool Totius agterbly.
Dt het aan die lig gekom nadat n ontstel-
de ouer TygerBurger Donderdag in kennis
gestel het dat haar dogter se foon op die ter-
rein gesteel is.
Di kind en nmaatjie het glo weggehard-
loop nadat die onbekende man met hulle
wou gesels en hulle geweier het.
Terwyl die kindwegwas, het haar selfoon
uit haar sak buite die nasorgsentrum ver-
dwyn. Die ma het s vertel: My kind was
histeries. Di mense is al voorheen daar ge-
sien terwyl hulle met kinders gesels, of by
ouers op die pawiljoen gaan sit.
Die ouer meen sy kan nie vir seker weet
of di groep verantwoordelik was vir die
steel van die foon nie, maar sy verduidelik
s: Di mense was daar en die foon is ge-
steel, maar niemand het gesien hoe dit ge-
steel is nie. Sy s n ander ouer wat van
die voorval te hore gekom het, het ges dat
daar by n vorige geleentheid wat die groe-
pie by die skool gesien is, ook fone verdwyn
het. Volgens die ouer het haar dogter die op-
sigter gaan roep toe diman haar lastig val.
Die nasorgpersoneel het gedinkdit is ou-
ers van nasorgkinders. Die mense het selfs
in die nasorgarea ingegaan en met kinders
daar gepraat, vertel sy.
Sy is egter doodtevrede met die vinnige
manier waarop die skool die insident han-
teer het, s die ouer.
Die skoolhoof,HendrikBester, s die insi-
dent het op die skoolterrein gebeur tydens
die sportoefeninge. Daar was baie mense
op die terrein. Die skool het onmiddellik ak-
sie geneem. Daar is sekere maatrels in
plek gestel. Die insidente gebeur in die om-
gewing, maar ons het ons leerders onmid-
dellik daarvan bewus gemaak, asook die
personeel en ouers. Bester waarsku ouers
en leerders om op die uitkyk te bly vir ver-
dagte mense wat op die skoolterrein kom.
Hy s die skool het gesprekkemet die kin-
ders gehad rondom hl gesprekke met
vreemdelinge, en daar is met die personeel
gepraat oor onmiddellike reaksie en die
rapporteer van sulke voorvalle.
Kapt. FienieNimb,woordvoerder van die
Bellville-polisie, meen di voorval is n uit-
sondering en ni n nuwe tendens nie.
Ons is bewus van n insident wat laas-
week daar plaasgevind het, het sy beves-
tig.
Ons was egter reeds by die skool om die
kinders toe te spreek oor diefstalle en die
roof van selfone op pad huis toe en skool
toe, het Nimb ges.

W
ith two decades of hits under their
belts, Dr Victor and the Rasta Re-
bels have become synonymous
with feel-good music.
Thats exactly what fans can expect when
the band take to the stage at the Liqui-Fruit
Amphitheatre in Paarl for Local is Lekker
2015.
The band is one of three acts that Cape
Town audiences chose to perform at the
show, the only one in the countrywhere the
public decide the line-up.
Band frontman Dr Victor says hes loo-
king forward to the outdoor show on Satur-
day 21 March.
I like open-air concerts because everyt-
hing is bigger: bigger dance moves, bigger
applause and a huge sound system to play
through.
Dr Vic, as he is also known, says the band
is planning to play some of the hits that ma-
de them a household name in South Africa.
Most of the songs Ive had the opportuni-
ty to sing on are crossover songs and they
appeal to all races and the whole family,
the I love to Truck singer says. Hes also
achieved success with songs such as Eddy
Grants Give Me Hope Joanna that were al-
readyhits in the 60s and 70s before theRas-
ta Rebels recorded their own versions.
I believe a good song will always be a
good song, he says.
Dr Victors musical career has seen him
share the stagewith international stars like
Gloria Estefan and Janet Jackson, but says
two of the biggest highlights of his career
are meeting Paul Simon in 1995 and Tina
Turner in 1996.
He is also involved with local talent
though and even co-wrote and produced the
popular You Touch Me (Horny) album by
Dawnay. The title track off the album spent
a record-breaking 22 weeks at the top of lo-
cal charts in 2001.
Dr Victor is currently working with the
artist known as Ricardo, whose single I love
you Daddy was a huge hit in the 80s.
The brother needs my help and Im just
reaching out to him as a friend, he says.
Dr Victor also hopes to finish his smooth
jazz guitar project and his long overdue
Christmas album this year.
For now though, fans can look forward to
seeing him with the Rasta Rebels at Local
is Lekker 2015 where theyll be sharing the
stage with Theuns Jordaan and Garth Tay-
lor.
The show is being presented by Tyger-
Burger, Smile 90.4fm and CapeGate Shop-
pingCentrewho gave readers, listeners and
shoppers the chance to nominate and then
vote for their favourite local acts last year,
thereby giving them the chance to choose
their own line up for the annual concert.
Dr Victor says he likes the idea of audien-
ces choosing performers. It would really
stretch our creativity as musicians.
Iwould like to thank all the fans for their
continued support over the years and
thanks for voting forme to perform at Local
isLekker 2015. Im looking forward toagreat
gig, he concludes.
Visit the Dr Victor & The Rasta Rebels
Facebook page or follow Dr Vic on Twitter
at @drvictorlive to stay up to date with his
activities.
V Tickets for Local is Lekker 2015, which takes place
at the Liqui-Fruit Amphitheatre in Paarl on Saturday

n Rebelle-kreet sal opgaan ter viering
van die uiters gewilde MTBS-pawiljoene,
wat in sy oorspronklike vorm vir eers op ys
gesit is.
Dt volgens Joh Dorfling, skoolhoof van
Horskool D.F. Malan, oor di tradisionele
vertoning tussen vier Bellvillese skole wat
vir die afsienbare toekoms by die Bellville-
stadion gekanselleer is.
Dorfling het laat weet dat D.F. Malan op
eie houtjie n vertoning vir ouers gaan aan-
bied.
Hoewel daar by 2015 seMTBSnie die tra-
disionele pawiljoenvertonings gaan wees
nie, sal daar beslis genoeg opwinding
wees, het Dorfling oor hul planne ges.
Sy s op Woensdagaand tussen 18:00 en
18:30 wil D.F. Malan sy ouers en ondersteu-
ners vermaak en verras met sy Rebelle-
kreet in die Bellville-atletiekstadion.
Die leerders het hard geoefen en dit be-
loof om regtig aanskoulik te wees!
Die vier MTBS-deelnemerhorskole,
naamlikD.F.Malan, Tygerberg, Bellville en
Stellenberg, sal dangesamentlik opDonder-
dag 12 Februarie om 12:00 n muntlegging
ten bate van die Shiloh-projek.
Dimuntlegging sal opD.F.Malan se hok-
kie-astrobaan in Frans Conradierylaan ge-
hou word.
Al vier skole is baie geesdriftig om n
groot sukses hiervan temaak, het Dorfling
ges.
Om almal in die regte gees vir die MTBS
te bring, beplan die rebels van D.F. Malan
ook n plakkaatbetoging voor die skool die
Donderdagoggend, s Dorfling.

ful convictions.
An60 000 increase inpolice officers since
2001, resulted in a 54% growth in arrests,
but due to the poor quality of the investiga-
tions done on the dockets a 20% decline in
successful convictions was indicated by the
NPA during the same time
he said.
And whats worse, accord-
ing to Burger, is the fact that
this gap is growing.
Although the National De-
velopmentPlan (NDP)during
2012 already approved plans
to professionalise the police
and bring back specialised
crime units, Burger ex-
pressedhis concern about the
actual implementation of
these plans.
Dissolving specialised
units such as South African
Narcotics Bureau (SANAB)
and Murder and Robbery re-
sulted in the loss of special-
ised investigative capacity
within SAPS.
This is because investiga-
tors of specialised units be-
come experts in identifying, understanding
and solving specific crime types. A profes-
sional ethos develops within such units
whereby officers can share lessons and ex-
periences, and approach each other for ad-
vice, he said in a recent paper.
Burger found that by dispersing special-
ist personnel across a large number of po-
lice stations -whichhappenedwhen the spe-
cialised units were dissolved - the benefits
of specialisation disappeared
Many experienced detectives lost their
networks and their expertisewent unused.
DESIRE RORKE
@dezzierorke
A big part of the problem the police have
in successfully combating crime is the ina-
bility to generate crime intelligence.
This is the view of Dr Johan
Burger put forward at a dis-
cussion at the School of Public
Leadership of the University
of Stellenbosch in Bellville
last Wednesday. Burger is a
senior researcher at the Insti-
tute for Security Studies (ISS)
and Unisa Professor in the de-
partment of Police Practice.
The intense discussion on
justice, safety and security in
South Africa was facilitated
by the Centre for Constitu-
tional Rights.
According to Burger, the
South African Police Ser-
vices crime intelligence per-
formance has declined tomin-
uscule figures over the last
three years, making it almost
impossible to combat orga-
nised crime syndicates over-
running the country.
He referred to the exponential increase of
142 % in armed robberies in shopping cen-
tres over the last year.
I am extremely worried about this in-
crease and part of the problem lies with the
police, he said.
It is because of the lack of SAPS perform-
ance in the domain of crime intelligence,
that crime syndicates such as the ones be-
hindmanymall robberies are having a field
day, he said.
Another worry is the decline in success-

Welgemoed has seen a marked decrease in
crime after the installation of their Licence
Plate Recognition (LPR) camera system.
At the release of theWelgemoedSafe com-
munitywatch 2014 crimereport onMonday,
vice-chairperson Anita Vos said the results
were surprisingly positive.
Vos said after the second phase of the pro-
ject was implemented in July last year and
the cameras have been instrumental in a
large number of arrests.
Despite the fact that the LPR Camera sy-
stemwas fully implemented for only the se-
cond half of 2014, crime incident statistics
clearly show the upward trend in crime
Welgemoed experienced since 2010 was re-
versed and crime levels were reduced.
Vos said 17 arrests were made in 2014,
compared to the one or two per year made
previously.
Vos said the statistics showed fewer hou-
ses were broken into, with housebreak and
theft cases becoming incidents of attemp-
ted housebreakings.
Most of their data was captured during
the second half of 2014 and some into 2015,
providing us with a good sample size of in-
formation to identify trends and activity.
Vos said 11 different categories of datawe-
re identified.
She said 28 cases of vehicles and 33 sus-
pect pedestrians were intercepted by the
patrol officers and escorted out the area
over the period.
As the LPR system received pop-ups of
suspicious vehicles from elsewhere in Cape
Town entering Welgemoed from the inter-
linked LPR network, in 21 cases they were
able to pick up and intercept suspect vehi-
cles and chase them out of the suburb.
She said from footage supplied to the poli-
ce, 15 cases of identification could be made.
We were able to reverse the trend of in-
creasing crime by reducing incidents. This
while most of our neighbouring areas had
an increase in crime.
Arrests are up, so it is getting less attrac-
tive to steal in Welgemoed, Vos said.
She urged residents to join the initiative
at their next public meeting and AGM on
Thursday 12 March 2015, from 18:30 to 20:00
at the Dutch Reformed Church hall in Dias
Street.
She said they would be reviewing 2014,
discussing the crime statistics in more de-
tail and sharing the organisations future
plans for a safer Welgemoed.

Waaroor hul wel eens is, is dat hulle siels-

Daar is nou niks wat ek daaraan kan doen
nie. Sy is nog meer uitgesproke: Ek het
mal verlief geraak op hom. Hy het n beson-
derse persoonlikheid en is deur en deur n
gentleman.
Aan die Here die lof, eer en dank. Dit is
baie kosbaar vir my dat hy saam met my
in Sy naam die pad verder aanpak.

liefde oral in die lug, maar veral in
Huis Aristea in Durbanville blom
dit behoorlik.
Die eerste paartjie in die bestaan van di
ouetehuis gaan die knoop deurhaak op Son-
dag 15 Februarie. Die ouetehuis het verlede
jaar sy 40ste bestaansjaar gevier.
Die 83-jarige Sarel Neethling, alombe-
kend as oom Sol, het nie gras onder sy voete
laat groei toe sy oog die goedversorgde, aan-
vallige Sophia Pool (78) in die gange van die
ouetehuis opgemerk het nie.
Oorhoehulle presies ontmoethet, ishulle
dit glad nie eens nie. Oom Sol, n afgetrede
onderwyser van Wellington, vertel hoe hy
haar te hulp gesnel het toe sy n n skouer-
operasie in Maart verlede jaar n geleent-
heid dokter en fisioterapeut toenodig gehad
het. Sy het haar skouer drie maande tevore
beseer toehaarvoet gegly en sybydie ouete-
huis van n stoep geval en n arm gebreek
het. Hy het reeds daar in die hospitaal vir
haar gaan kuier en dit was die begin van
baie kuiers.
Sy vertel weer hy het reeds n week vr
die operasie in haar kamer gekom en gevra
of hy maar bietjie kan gesels.
Toe ek sien, toe staan hierdie man inmy
kamerdeur. Di geselsie het toe in n lang
kuier ontaard, vertel sy skalks.
Dit was hierdie man wat my na die ope-
rasie rondgery en met alles gehelp het.
OomSol se vrou,Wina,metwie hy 58 jaar
getroud was, is op 23 Januarie verlede haar
oorlede. Hulle het reeds sewe jaar by Aris-
tea in n huis gebly.
Pool was twee keer tevore getroud. Haar
eersteman,AndriesBester, is op 49 jaar oor-
lede, en haar tweede man, Joos Pool, op 70-
jarige leeftyd. Pool, wat opgelei is as maat-
skaplike werker, het daarna by haar dogter
op Riversdal gaan bly. Toe haar dogter in
Junie 2012 oorlede is, het sy in n kamer by
Aristea ingetrek in afwagting op n huis
in die kompleks. Toe oom Sol haar saam-
nooi vir n naweek na sy vakansiehuis in

Grypdiewe is n algemene gesig en hulle tei-
ken veral vroue, s die Bellville-polisie.
Kapt. Fienie Nimb s daar is baie maniere
hoe grypdiewe deur n venster kan kom om
die items aan die ander kant beet te kry.
Hulle teiken gewoonlik enige motor waar
items op die passasiersitplek in sig is en ge-
bruik meestal n vonkprop met sy skerp
punt om die ruit te laat versplinter.
Ek het self n video gesien waarin die
inbreker die venster oopbreek met sy lyf,
s Nimb. Op die video-material kan n
mensduidelik siendat diemisdadigerdeur
die een voertuig se vensters kyk, niks van
waarde sien nie, en dan aanbeweeg na die
volgende kar, waar daar n selfoon op die
sitplek l. Hulle breek dan die venster
oop. Nimb het bevestig dat grypdiewe by-
voorbeeld langmouklere opwarm dae aan het
om hul arms te beskerm, en dat van hulle
se arms en skouers oortrek is met littekens
as gevolg van die brekende glas.
Nimb s die beste voorkomende optrede is
om alle sigbare items in die kattebak toe te
sluit.
Die polisie waarsku veral vrouemoet ligloop vir grypdiewe
Soek baas: n Mandjie vol
kostuumjuweliersware is deur n
inwoner in die Majik Forest-park
opgetel en aan die Bellville-polisie
oorhandig. Die polisie vermoed dat
di juweliersware tydens n
huisinbraak gebuit is. Dit l tans as
bewysstuk by die polisiekantoor en
die eienaar kan dit tydens kantoor-
ure by die bewysstuk-klerk eien

skulpdier-ornamente aan die
kante van my haarlose koppie
kom derhalwe kort-kort in
opstand.
Gelukkig is die stilte van my

aankom, dan maak die ander
motors pad; amper soos vir die

Daar is n klompie eienaar-

van die soveelste raasduiwel,
nou die dag in my gedagtes
losgetorring het.
Hoekom is dit net manlike
bestuurders wat dit so uiters
nodig ag om sy gebrek aan
musieksmaak en respek vir
ander mense se ore aan die
strate van die dorp bloot te
stel?
Die meisies/vroue doen dit
dan nie.
Ons jongste seun sal s dat
dit is omdat die ouens rebels

phoning your domestic ser-

their employers names and

They then phone you and
pose as your domestic workers
relatives and tell you she has
died and they need financial
assistance.
They are quite convincing as
a woman who said she was my

crying when we talked on the
phone. Another thing that has
been happening is young
women going door to door
asking if you have a domestic
servant and could they speak to
her. They might also be on a

A few days ago I used a
disabled parking bay in front of
the Edgemead shopping centre.
I have used this facility for
many years as it is convenient-
ly situated in front of the ATM
and it is always easy for my
wife to find a shopping trolly I
use as a walking aid. On this
specific day, after climbing on
top of the curbstones with my
two crutches to walk to the
ATM, I was left dumbfounded
by a very healthy person
pushing a pram who confronted
me to tell me I was parking
illegally. When I returned to
my car I noticed a message
painted in white on the tarred
service reading moms and
tots. While standing, still
upset, it occured to me that at
the front of the centre there
were now parking bays alloca-
ted further away from where I
was parked. I noticed an open
bay about five vehicles away.
Ideal for winter rainy days. The
new arrangements prompts me
to ask the following questions:
Are there bike riders who are
handicapped? Do moms and
tots fall within the category of
handicapped and disabled? Do
the architcts of these projects
know the meaning of physically
handicapped?

Van Hanoverpark en Milner-
ton en Durbanville, tot diep
doer binne-in die Vredendal.
Destyds in die jeugdige jare
van onbesorgdheid en woelige
ledemate het ons maters so een
of twee keer n nagklub in die
stad gaan besoek. Die bas- en
doef-doef-klanke het voluit deur
massiewe luidsprekers almal
binne en buite die klub se
oordromme met mening geteis-
ter. Die geraas was egter
steeds musiek.
Hoe werk die ouens van
vandag se ore dan?
Wanneer hy van en na sy
werkplek ry en die kloppende
klanke druis deur sy oordrom-
me, moet hy ook seker sukkel
om sy gehoor weer aan die
werk te kry? Of luister hul
gewoon net nie?
Die vraag wat egter by my
bly opkom is, kan n geruis n
stil gemoed huisves?

Rooftogte by
sentrums
vereis optrede
Suid-Afrikaners is lankal misdaadvoos.
Huisinbrake is al n geruime tyd lank ons
voorland.
Daarom beveilig ons onsself met ho
mure, veiligheidshekke, alarmstelsels en
kwaai honde. Buurtwagte dien as byko-
mende buffer teen di inbrekers.
Maar in die afgelope klomp maande het
n nuwe misdaadtendens sy kop uitge-
steek wat nou ontstellende afmetings
aanneem en die publiek meer as ooit
vantevore blootstel aan di misdaadgolf,
ook omdat hulle nie self voorsorgmaat-
rels kan tref om hul eie veiligheid te
verseker nie.
Sentrummisdaad het nou n wrede
werklikheid van ons samelewing geword.
Boonop het dit in net n kort tydjie
drasties toegeneem.
Oral in die verspreidingsgebied van
TygerBurger lees n mens daagliks van
winkels in sentrums wat beroof word
van n restaurant in die Tygervalleisen-
trum tot by n Milnertonse winkel wat
huishoudelike toerusting verkoop.
Apteke, selfoonwinkels en vulstasies loop
deur. En dit neem daagliks toe.
Die meeste sentrums se sekerheidsper-
soneel is nie regtig opgelei om gewapende
rooftogte hok te slaan nie. Die publiek is
deurentyd blootgestel daaraan. En dit is
immers elke landsburger se basiese reg
om beskerm te word as hy of sy n
openbare plek besoek.
Dit bring mee dat hierdie situasie n
n prioriteitsaak vir die polisie mt
word. Spesiale eenhede wat op sentrum-
misdaad fokus, is n noodsaaklikheid.

Cancer signs, symptoms,myths and facts
R
eaders may have lost a loved one to
cancer, or know someone fighting it.
But how much do readers know about
the illness?
Elize Joubert, Cansas acting CEO, states
over 100 000 South Africans are diagnosed
annually with the disease.
World Cancer Day was on 4 February and
this is Healthy Lifestyle Awareness Month.
According to research conducted by Can-
sas head of health, Professor Michael
Herbst, scientific evidence shows diet and
exercise can play a vital role in lowering
cancer risk.
Tobacco use, obesity, a poor diet, lack of
physical activity and alcohol contribute to
cancer risk. Infections and environmental
pollutants also contribute to cancer.
According toCansa the followingare some
of the warning signs for the illness:
V Change in a wart or mole.
V Any continued fever.
V Nagging coughor continuedhoarseness.
V Chronic pain in bones or any other area.
V Enduring fatigue, nausea or vomiting.
V Repeated infection and/or inflammati-
on.
V Change in bowel or bladder habits.
V A sore throat that does not heal.
V Unusual discharge or abnormal blee-
ding.
V Thickening or lump in the breast, testi-
cles or elsewhere.
V Indigestion or difficulty swallowing.
V Obvious change in the size, colour, sha-
pe or thickness of a wart, mole or mouth so-
re.
V Noticeable weight loss and appetite loss.
These symptoms may be caused by other
health problems, but if one or more of these
symptomspersist, a doctor should be consul-
ted immediately.
According to cancer awareness organisa-
tions PinkDrive, Campaigning for Cancer
and More Balls Than Most, some myths and
facts about cancer include:
Myth If you find a lump while breastfee-
ding it cant be cancer.
Fact Breastfeeding is proven to reduce
a womans lifetime risk of being diagnosed
with breast cancer but it can still happen.
VMyth Cancer is contagious and can
spread like flu.
Fact Cancer is not contagious.
VMyth Childhood cancer is fatal.
Fact Most childhood cancers are curable.
VMyth Testicular cancer is an old per-
sons disease.
Fact It is the most common cancer affec-
ting men between the ages of 18 to 39.
VMyth If you are young, a breast lump
cant be cancer.
Fact You should get breast lumps chec-
ked out by a doctor at any age.
VMyth Im too young toworry about cer-
vical cancer.
Fact Women can be diagnosed with cer-
vical cancer in their 20s.

T
he journey fromplaying ablikgitaar in
Athlone to playingCarnegieHall start-
ed when Gammie Lakay fell in love
with the sounds that surrounded him in his
neighbourhood.
If youve been to a David Kramer produc-
tion in the last 25 years youve experienced
the musical magic that happens when he
gets that guitar groove going.
While working with Kramer and the late
Taliep Petersen in their productions tour-
ing the world has been a dream come true,
its a journey still continuing.
In December last year he was part of the
band that went to Carnegie Hall in New
York and said when he stepped onto that
stage he thought back to his roots.
Iwas very emotional, he says. Was this
laaitie who learnt his music on the streets
really standing on this stage?
As I plugged in for the sound check and
the first notes of my guitar rang out I knew
it was not a dream - my passion for music
had paid off.
Surrounded by music
Gammie points out that growing up in 7th
Avenue in Athlone you could not help hav-
ing music influence you.
This is the same road as the famous But-
ler family, he says.
Music came to you from the corners
where guys were singing, the langarm
bands, the Christmas Choirs and of course
the Minstrels. When I first heard the sound
of the guitar with the choirs I knew that I
wanted to play.
There was nomoney for an instrument at
that time so some ingenuity saw him mak-
ing his own guitar from a tin can.
I just had to play something, he laughs.
There were no formal lessons so I just
watched. My guitar may not have been in
tune but my fingers were making the right
moves and in my head I was a star.
Eventually he got a real guitar for his 13th
birthday and he started taking his music
more seriously, learning from those around
him and getting involved with the min-
strels.
My music school was the streets, the ra-
dio and gramophone. Therewas alwaysmu-
sic around me and I wanted to play every-
thing from the Beatles to Jimi Hendrix.
Eventually hewas invited to join the band
Harold and the Hippies.
We were very popular on the local
scene, he remembers.
Richard John Smith was also part of the
band at the time and we had a bit of a hit
with the song Storybook Children, but the
radio would not play it because hippies
were supposed to be bad,he laughs.
Since then he has played with many
bandsbut it is the relationshipwith themin-
strels that eventually got him joining the
Kramer/Petersen family.
Regular gigs
I always knew Taliep (Petersen) from
working with the minstrels and he always
loved my playing. For years he would tell
me that hewanted toworkwithme but both
of us were always busy with other projects.
Eventually Howard Links (bass player
forKramer/Petersen) rockedupatmyplace
and just said kom, Taliep soek vir jou
(come, Taliep is looking for you).
Since then David has not stopped using
us as his backing band and for recordings.
Weve built up a good relationship, adding
that real Cape flavour to his music.
A particularly proud moment was when
David included my tune Ons Jol Innie Hei-
develd for the concert in Carnegie hall.
Of course we eventually sangOns Jol In-
nie Carnegie Hall and watching the people
get up and dance made me realise how
proud I was to be working with the best in
the South African music industry.
The musical journey is far from over for
Gammie there is still a lot that he is doing
and wants to do.
Recording is high on that list of getting
his original material on an album, he wants
to teach more and still loves gigging when
not working on a Kramer production.
He has formed a group Fantacy with sing-
er Vincent Carlindt and they gig at the
Groun Coffee Restaurant (4 Denver Road,
Lansdowne) on Thursdays from 20:00 and
on Saturdays at Cafe Royale (also in Lans-
downe Road) from 17:00.
I am available for any type of gig, he
says.
VGammie Lakay can be contacted on083 776 5092.

COLLEGE
.
A
n identity fraudster who had been
causing his victim misery for 16
years, has been busted by City traffic
officials.
Jafta Williams went to the Parow Traffic
Department a few weeks ago to enquire
about a number of traffic fines and war-
rants issued in his name relating to offen-
ces he had not committed.
Williams saidhehad lost his identity doc-
ument and drivers licence in Bellville 16
years ago and has been haunted by an iden-
tity thief ever since, facing arrest for out-
standing fines and having to pay for offen-
ces he never committed. Efforts to clear up
the issue, includingwith the South African
Police Service and home affairs, had come
to nought.
At the traffic department, one of the offi-
cers searched the database and found a
string of offences registered in the Retreat
and Capricorn areas some for a Toyota
minibus and others for a Toyota Tazz. The
discovery led officers Desr Benadie and
Marnus Visser to the Retreat taxi rank the
following day, where they received confir-
mation that the person going by the vic-
tims name was in fact a taxi driver. Once
they tracked him down, he insisted that he
wasWilliamsandproducedan identitydoc-
ument to prove it.
The fraudster was so brazen. He actual-
ly tried to convince the officers that he was
in fact Mr Williams. Even when they went
off in search of a Morpho Touch machine
to verify his identity through fingerprint-
ing, he still stuck to his story. Only through
persistent questioning did he eventually
confess that he had in fact stolen the resi-
dents identity and had used it to make du-
plicate licences and purchase a vehicle, as
he never legally acquired his own driving
licence, said the Citys mayco member for
safety and security, JP Smith.
The suspect was arrested for fraud and
has since appeared in court.
These officers went above and beyond
the call of duty and are to be commended
for their efforts. Their search for the truth
led them to Retreat, Capricorn, Hillstar
Traffic Department, the Delft police station
and Cape Town International Airport.
Identity theft is a problem and judging by
the victims account, very difficult to re-
solve. I am very pleased that he was able
to finally catch a break in a very long battle
and I would like to urge the public to be ex-
tra vigilant and to guard against falling vic-
tim to this type of theft. Also, do not just
take traffic notices at face value and, if
youre unsure, rather go to your nearest
traffic department to double-check fines.
As illustrated by this case, we will assist
where we can, but ultimately home affairs
doesneed to shapeup todealwith this ongo-
ing problem, Smith said.

T
hree weeks ago Allyson Swanepoel
from Kraaifontein started knitting
and didnt stop until she had com-
pleted 40brandnewsets of newbornbaby
beanies and booties.
And she is not finished yet.
About 500 babies are born at Carl
Bremmer eachmonth, many of whom do
not have proper warm clothing to go ho-
me in, she says.
She learned of their plight from a nur-
sing sister at the hospital after she read
a pamphlet in a wool shop recently.
It reads as follows: There are a num-
ber of hospitals around the country, in
which babies are being born who have
no warm clothes to wear. In some of the-
se hospitals the babies are evenwrapped
in newspaper and sent home. Many of
them become very ill (pneumonia and
bronchitis) and are even dying of this.
Great demand
Being a grandmother of 11 grandchil-
dren and a veteran knitter, this tragedy
gripped her heart and she immediately
bought a bag of wool and set off home to
start the mammoth project.
The nursing sister even provided me
with a pattern for beanies and booties for
premature babies, as this is often a dire
need. The hospital already have a group
of ladies knitting for them, but it is sim-
ply not enough for the demand. Many of
the young mothers who come in for la-
bour are still at school and can hardly ta-
ke care of themselves, says Allyson.
On a table in her living room she
spread out the cute and colourful knitted
sets.
Fourty down...hundreds to go! But I
cant do it alone. Like me, there must be
many other community members out
there who loves knitting, have some spa-
re time and would like to join a knitting
group.
For Allyson this is an opportunity to
give back to the community.
Teaching
I absolutely love babies and although
our families need us, there are those in-
nocents out there who need us even mo-
re, she says, adding that she is willing
to teach volunteers how to knit.
Ive knitted all my life and it is a won-
derfully, relaxing and therapeutic hob-
by. You can sit and knit all day!
V Contact Allyson on 0829795590 to get invol-
ved in this worthwhile community project. or to
donate wool.

The Bellville Art Centre onMonday started
hosting the first in a series of very exciting
new cartooning classes.
The classes will be presented by artist
Vernon Fourie every second Monday eve-
ning, and every second Friday afternoon.
Friday sessions will be from 14:30 to 16:30
and started on Friday 6 February at the li-
brarys art centre.
Monday sessionswill behosted from15:00
to 17:00.
Sessions must be booked monthly in ad-
vance and cost R155 per person per session.
A list of the requiredmaterials andadditi-
onal information can be obtained from the
artist at 076 078 3272.
Toon school opens at library
Cartooning classes are being offered at the
Bellville Library Centre.
Data is the lifeblood of decision-making at all
levels, for individual and international orga-
nisations.
Governments, companies, researchers and
citizen groups are in a ferment of experimen-
tation, innovation and adaptation to a world
inwhich data is bigger, faster andmore de-
tailed than ever before.
This is part of the reason speakers from the
UnitedNationsUWC lastMonday for a series
of discussions on how to use the worldwide
data revolution for sustainable development.
We are producing data every second of
our lives, and that all goes somewhere and
some people can use it, and some cant, said
Professor Enrico Giovannini, chairman of
the UN Secretary Generals Independent Ad-
visory Expert Group.
The talk was the first step of a Statistics
South Africa outreach programme exploring
the recently-released A World That Counts
report on the data revolution, andwhat itme-
ans for sustainable development.
UWC Rector Professor Tyrone Pretorius
said: With projects like this, there is always
the risk that dominant discourses around the
world will favour the interests of the econo-
mically powerful.
The powerful may measure what is of in-
terest to them and use that data to find soluti-
ons to the problems they face, leaving the
weak to fend for themselves, he said.
Pali Lehohla, Secretary-General of Statis-
tics South Africa, said the data revolution
was particulary important in Africa.
We cant afford to miss out on the data re-
volution. We need to use it to understand the
world and change it for the better.
