Minecrime combating takes

shapeThe Limpopo Mine Crime Combating Forum

were launched last week Thursday atNthame Primary School near Burgersfort.

The event was atended by government

ministers, local political leaders, general

officers of the Police and representatives of

mines and communities in the province.

The establishment of the forum follow after

the launch of siminilar structures in

Rustenburg, Klerksdorp and Brits.

Minister of Police, Nathi Mthethwa, also

attended the launch and told guests that at

the core of the government programme is

the obligation to improve the quality of life of

all the citizens, for them to exercise their

freedoms and use their talents to help our

society flourish. He said despite progress,

government acknowledges that more still

needs to be done to address the three

resilient fault lines, which areunemployment, poverty and inequality and

also recognize that in areas where citizens

are unhappy on progress, through freedom

of expression, the citizens have a right to

express grievances through public protests.

He toild the audience thaty The right to

peaceful assembly forms a cornerstone of

our democracy; built on the principles of

collective expression in whichever form they

may occur. The slow pace of development

and service delivery, and the widening

inequality gap has resulted in a surge in

mass protests since mid-2000. Police are

thus continually being called upon to

respond to the manifestations of discontent

with government service delivery and labour

disputes. Research conducted supports this

indicating a significant increase in the

proportion of mass gatherings that turn

violent. This then requires that the police

have the ability of the police to effectively

manage these situations. The provincial

launch of the Limpopo Mine Crime

Combating Forum (MCCF) should be

understood from the above-mentioned

context. It was initiated by government and

falls under the auspices of the Framework

Agreement for a Sustainable Mining Industry

entered into by Organized Labour,

Organized Business and Government. He

added that this fundamental step which we

undertook, collectively, was demonstrative

of our commitment to: Act decisively to

enforce the rule of law, maintain peace

during strikes and other protests relating to

labour disputes, ensure protection of life,

property and the advancement of the rights

of all citizens, including crime prevention

measures. Ensure that law enforcement

agencies act in a manner that is fair,

impartial and objective and that all care is

taken to protect life and property and to put

in place adequate and appropriate capacity

in the form of detectives and specialist

prosecution teams to prosecute cases on

violence, intimidation, assault and murder,prioritize the investigation and finalization of

cases arising from lawlessness in and round

mining areas, in appropriate designated

courts and enforce municipal by-laws related

to gatherings and demonstrations.

He said whereas the Constitution

permits unarmed and peaceful protests, the

abuse of this right becomes a serious matter

when participants take up arms and use

unnecessary violence, which requires urgent

attention and action from SAPS. This

framework clearly spells out the roles and

responsibilities which must be undertaken

by all of us, which inevitably, means we

have a collective accountability and

responsibility. We want to emphasize the

point that business has a crucial role to play

in this regard, particularly the mine owners.

2 NEWS 18 OCTOBER 2013

Skote klap by Apiesdoorn VillageMnr. Hendry Joubert, sy vrou en n vriendwas Maandagnag in n middernagtelikeskietery met vermeende rowers betrokke.Ek het wakker geword en n sigaret gerook,vertel Hendry. Ek hoor toe n voertuig inry by

ons erf. Dit was n wit Honda met n GPregistrasie.Daar het drie mans uitgeklim en na mygeroep omdat daar na bewering fout by eenvan die grensdrade was. Ons het aanvanklik

gedink dit is die sekuriteit. Ek het teruggeroep dat hulle maar self moet gaan kyk, ekgaan nrens.Die mans het toe gery, maar was n paarminute later weer terug.

Hierdie keer het hulle weer geroep ensommer die agterdeur probeer

afbreek. Hulle het diekamervenster gebreek en virMarietjie, Hendry se vrou,probeer nader pluk toe sy

waarsku dat dit nie diesekuriteitsmanne is nie.Al drie die mans het met 9mmpistole uit die voertuig geklim.

Gelukkig het Marietjie kopgehouen na die kluis in die kamerlangsaangegaan. Sy het dit

solank oopgesluit en ons 38special uitgehaal, vertel Hendry.Die aanvallers het vermoedelikdie kluis gehoor en toe n skootop op die huis geskiet. Die huisis van voorafvervaardigde

panele gebou en die skoot hetdeur die buitenste muur gedring

en teen n binnemuurvasgeslaan.Toe hulle daardie skoot skiettoe s ek vir Marietjie sy moet

terugskiet. Sy het toe n skootdeur die venster na buitegeskiet.

Daardie 38 special klap daremhard. Heelwat harder as die9mm wat hulle gebruik het.

Na Marietjie se skoot het diegroep vinnig in die voertuiggespring en weggejaag.Die polisie was vinnig op dietoneel en daar is toe agtergekomdat daar eintlik 5 verdagtes is.

Twee het by die hek na

Apiesdoorn die sekuriteitswagte oorrompel.Jong, n mens skrik. Dit is net genade datons nie in swart body bagsis vandag nie,vertel Hendry verder.Ons kan steeds nie dink hoekom iemand

ons so sou wou aanval nie. Ons het tog nievyande nie en hier is ons huis in die middelvan al die huise. Hulle het dalk gedink ons

het iets waardevol in die huis, maar hier isnie geld of goed om te steel nie.Hy bedank graag die polisie wat nie net

vinnig gereageer het nie, maar tot by dieforensiesespan wat vroeg reeds op dietoneel was.

Bo: Marietjie het n skoot deur die venstergeskiet.

Onder: Die agterdeur en hek is oopgebreekom toegang tot die huis te kry.

Mnr. Hendry Joubert wys waar is die aanvallers se skoot deur die huis se muur.

On Sunday night suspects broke into a farm house at Wildebeeskraal by

forcing the back door open. The owner, Mr. Hendrik Leonard (age 64), wasnot at home. The suspects broke the firearm safe from the floor in thebedroom and conveyed it with a wheelbarrow through the field, where it wasloaded onto a vehicle next to the R37 Lydenburg road. No other valuables

were taken from the house. Mr. Leonard discovered the burglary when hereturned to the farm on Monday morning. The Police searched the farm and

surroundings, using a tracker dog, but did not find any significant leads.Inside the safe were three firearms (2xshotguns and a 9mm pistol),ammunition, R40 000 cash and personal documents. The BurgersfortPolice under command of Lieut. Colonel Richard Madilonga activated itsresources and followed up on leads which came to light. The vehicle whichconveyed the safe from the crime scene was found on the Lydenburg road

and the driver (aged 32) arrested, being in possession of more than R10

000 in cash, presumably the stolen money. In the follow-up investigation,the safe, which was grinded open, was recovered from a river nearMashising where it was dumped from the bridge. Only some personaldocuments were found in the broken safe. From there the police managed

to trace and recover the two stolen shotguns, ammunition and a grinderfrom a house in Mashising and arrest a second suspect (aged 27). The

arrested suspects will appeared in court inBurgersfort on Wednesday oncharges of Housebreaking and Theft. They will also face additional chargesfor the possession of presumed stolen property and possession of firearms

without license at Lydenburg Court by Thursday. The investigationcontinues and it is anticipated that further arrests may be effected soon.(Information: Colonel Ronnie Van Niekerk, Burgersfort SAPS)

The Limpopo Provincial, district and local

government, under the leadership of Premier

Stanley Mathabatha, converged on the tiny

village of Maseven (between De Hoop Dam

and Ngwaabe and visible from the R555) last

week Friday as part of the governments

public participation programme.

Prtemier Mathabatha was accordingly

introduced to the large crowd gathered under

the tent and in the shade of gazebos put up

as stalls by various government agencies for

the main event.

This event comprised of community

structures and ortganisation airing their views

about service delivery and posed questions

to government about pressing issues susch

as unemployment, housing, water and the

state of roads. Maseven is for example

connected to Ngwaabe by a (poorly built)

tarred road which abruptly terminates in front

of a garden. No access bridges or tarred

connection to the R555 exist.

The answers to questions were given by

various roleplayers, such as MECs.

ASA Metals / Dilokong Chrome Mine lodged

their Rehlokomelaka Kudu, (We Care

More), intervention as part of their theory of

constraints program to improve efficiencies

at their Mine and Smelter operations.

This is the flagship programme for the

company in 2013 and is designed to align

management and employees attitudes and

behaviours with the companys values and

goals. All permanent employees are

scheduled to attend this programme.

The Rehlokomelaka Kudu program was

launched in March 2013, together with

external consultants and the Gearon team at

Hannah Game Lodge, with various

teambuilding activities, including the highrope and team activity course, conducted

over two days.

The working teams take part in the

various games designed to develop various

areas of team cohesion and interaction. The

key focus is on developing individual and

team leadership skills, planning for daily

activists to enable the team to reach daily

targets, as well as that each team member

has to take ownership for his or her

responsibilities, in collaboration and support

from other team members. Therefore, one

of the major challenges of the day is the

completion of the high rope course that also

helps team members to master their fairs,

and also to receive the support of their

fellow team members to complete the

course.

Although the intervention is just

approximately 50% complete, the mine has

already increased some of their efficiencies

on developing meters with more than 100%

improvement and on face advance meters

with more than 20%, compared to the same

time last year.

The company are looking forward tocomplete the first phase of the

Rehlokomelaka Kudu program.

The Management Team also want to

thank their employees for the effort and

commitment to ASA Metals and Dilokong

Chrome Mine.

The ASA Metals / Dilokong Chrome Mine

winning team lives their values: Zero Harm,

Honesty, Teamwork, Care and Ownership,

on a daily basis!

The Leboeng SAPS and the grade 7 learners from Leboeng Primary

School held a career dress up day.This is a national campaign and Const. Maimela Sibatana presented thedifferent types of careers within the SAPS.The young ones were fascinated by the different fields within the policeservice. Some were quick to tell that they will now be able to choose acareer in the SAPS that will be interesting to them.

(Information: Const. Sibatana Maimela Andrew, Leboeng SAPS).

Robbery

suspects arrestedThree men from Gamoraba Village in Leboeng was arrested. The menaged, 21, 28 and 39 allegedly robbed a 92-year old woman of R2000.They are accused of forcefully entering the womans house during the

night and demanding money while threatening to kill her.The men appeared in the Leboeng Magistrates Court on 15 Octoberand will appear again on 22 October for a bail hearing.During the arrest the police recovered items such as DVDs, home

This photograph was taken on Wednesday this week when traffic was again disrupted while a truck wasoffloading bricks.

Morone Street in Burgersfort is notorious for thepotholes in the one section and then the traffic delaysin another.The one section of road borders businesses who allreceive deliveries by truck. Shoprite, Build It andLaduma Hardware have to get their stock off the

trucks and into their business premises.Tubatse Build It has constructed a paved sectionnext to the road where their stock yard is. This is

large enough for most of their deliveries.Ms. Suzette Geldenhuys from Tubatse Build It said:

People were complaining and Ive been keeping trackof where our delivery trucks park. These days it isseldom one of our deliveries causing traffic problems.

People should remember that there is more than onebusiness receiving deliveries in this area.She is also encouraging the public to take

photographs and contact her should they be blockedby Build It vehicles.She adds that all the Build It trucks are clearly markedwith the name Build It.Contact Tubatse Build It on 013-231 7529.

Autozone Burgersfort donated No Dumping signs to the GreaterTubatse Municipality.This came after Platinum Gazette published an article in June inwhich a contractor used the stores vehicle to dump illegally in

Oorbietjie Street.The one sign was placed close to the area where the dumping

occurred and the other will still be placed somewhere by themunicipality. Unfortunately people have been continuing to dumprubbish in the area and the Autozone team cleaned up much ofthis before planting the sign. In the photograph left Mr Lemon

Levhimbi, the local store manager stands next to the sign.

Snacking in the garden

Cattle is venturing more and more into Burgersfort as the new seasons grass has not yetappeared. Their snacking on residents grass in some areas are driving property owners

mad. Without proper control or a municipal pound there is little property owners can do

(apart from fencing off their gardens) to prevent the cattle from picking themselves a greensnack.

Skietdag vir jagters

op LydenburgDie Bosbok tak van die SAJagtersvereniging hou op 17 November2013 hulle laaste amptelike skietdag vandie jaar.Die skietdag sal by Lydenburg skietbaan

plaasvind. Die Bosbok tak bedien jagters

van Burgersfort, Steelpoort, Ohrigstad enLydenburg. Enige iemand is welkom omte kom skiet of net te kom kyk. Die dag isnie net vir lede van die tak nie.Die skiet vind op die Egbert Hiemstra

skietbaannet buite Lydenburg plaas. Ditis so 2km op die Roossenekal pad aandie regterkant. (Langs die vliegveld).Die jagseisoen is verby, maar die bestuur

van die tak hoop dat die dag steeds goedondersteun sal word.

Die Rooibok of Blouwildebees tabelgaangeskiet word.Dit behels 9 skote wat onderskeidelik200m - L houding (3 x skote/rondtes)100m - Sit houding (3 x skote/rondtes)

50m - Staan houding (3 x skote/rondtes

geskiet word.Lede sal R20 betaal en nie-lede sal R50betaal per inskrywing.Storm Buffel: Die Storm Buffel gaan ookgeskiet word. In hierdie skietoefening word

dit nageboots dat die skut na n stormendebuffel skiet.Persone wat hieraan wil deelneem moet dus

verkieslik met n kaliber van .375 of groterskiet. 8 x Rondtes, waarvan 3 brein en 5hartskote moet wees sal na die buffelteiken

teen tyd en op verskillende afstandegeskiet word. Vir die skuts wat nie n.375 of groter kaliber besit nie, kan daarwel met n kleiner kaliber geskiet word,maar hulle sal nie die volle punte kry nie.

Almal wat die tabel al geskiet het, s dieadrenalien wat daarmee saamgaan isverslawend. Die tabel is n goeiemaatstaf om te sien of jy reg is om grootwild te gaan jag, of as jy in so n situasiesou beland waar jy of iemand in jou

groep se lewens in gevaar is, jy reg souwees om onder druk steeds vinnige enakkurate skote te kan skiet s Johan

Grimbeek van die tak.Aspirant Beroeps Jagters kry hier diegeleentheid om te sien of hulle dit het

om as n PH te kwalifiseer. Die grootwildjagters wat die dag bywoon kan ookhul ondervinding kom deel.Dit is R10 per lid en R20 vir nie-lede perinskrywing. Dit is belangrik om genoegammunisie na die dag te bring.
