Bekende by huis vermoor

ERMELO - Issie Dippenaar, ‘n 58-jarige weduwee van Ermelo, is Maandagaand, 21 November, ongeveer 20:00 wreed by haar huis in Ermelo vermoor. ‘n Familielid het bekommerd geraak toe wyle me Dippenaar, wat alleen by die huis was, nie telefonies geskakel kon word nie en sy het een van die bure geskakel om ondersoek te gaan instel. Die buurman kon ook nie enige kontak maak of toegang tot die woning verkry nie en het ‘n veiligheidsmaatskappy gekontak om hom te kom bystaan.

Saam is die buurman en veiligheidsbeampte om die woning, maar kon niks verdag opmerk nie.

Wyle me Dippenaar se voertuig was onder ‘n afdak geparkeer en die twee mans het gemerk dat een van die voertuig se vensters oop is en dat daar twee selfone op die sitplek lê. By nadere ondersoek is me Dippenaar se lewelose liggaam in die bagasieruim gevind.

Volgens kaptein Carla Prinsloo, skakelbeampte van die Ermelo SAPD, kon hulle geen duidelike merke of letsels aan haar liggaam vind nie en daar word vermoed dat sy dalk verwurg kon wees. Dit sal egter eers bevestig kan word nadat die nadoodse ondersoek afgehandel is.

Boodskappe op sosiale media bespiegel dat ‘n voormalige tuinier dalk verantwoordelik kan wees, maar volgens Prinsloo is die polisie nog besig om leidrade op te volg en arrestasies sal volg.

Volgens inligting het wyle Issie haar lewe daaraan gewy om haar medemens te help en by te staan.

Ten tye van haar afsterwe was sy die bestuurder by die CMR Kinderhuise in Ermelo. Haar bekende Die liggaam van wyle Issie Dippenaar is Maandagaand om ongeveer 20:00 in haar voertuig se kattebak by sêding: “Teamwork makes the dream work” sal al- haar woning in Ermelo gevind. Die polisie in Ermelo was teen druktyd nog besig om leidrade op te volg en kon hulle nog nie uitlaat oor ‘n moontlike motief vir die moord nie. (Foto: Facebook) mal wat haar geken het bybly. JD

Brother kills brother, wounds three others

BALFOUR – A 45-year-old man appeared before the Balfour Magistrate’s Court on 21 November, on a charge of murder and three counts of attempted murder.

The man’s appearance comes after an incident that occurred on Saturday, 19 November, at around 20:00 when the police received a complaint that at a certain house in Letsoko Street in Siyathemba, near Balfour - there were people who were injured, however the nature of injuries and the cause thereof was not mentioned.

Upon arrival, police found an unknown man who alleged that he was a tenant at the house in question. The man told them that he was standing outside with the landlord’s wife when a red Toyota

Conquest stopped near the gate and the younger brother of the landlord started swearing at them.

He then took out a firearm and shot at his brother’s wife, he proceeded towards his brother and shot him as well as two other tenants.

The brother of the suspect died on the scene and the other three victims were taken to hospital for medical attention as they were in a critical condition. The suspect drove away from the scene only to later hand himself over at Balfour Police Station.

The police are still searching for the firearm used as the suspect did not bring it to the police station with him. JD

STANDERTON - There was panic and chaos on the Vaal river bridge before Meyerville on Thursday,17 November. This follows after incorrect information was sent to the father of a 13-yearold pupil of Laerskool Kallie de Haas, claiming that the boy had drowned following a robbery.

The fact of the matter is that while the boy was walking from school into town, he was allegedly robbed by unknown suspects while on the bridge. They allegedly stole his school bag and his cell phone and assaulted him before they fled the scene. Somehow the boy’s father, who works at Standerton Magistrate’s Court received information that his son was robbed and thrown into the river. Shocked and confused, the father drove to the Police Station to report the matter. Police rushed to the scène and upon arrival onlookers were gathered on the bridge and some volunteers were already in the river trying to recover the supposed body. Traffic came to a standstill on the bridge as curious motorists abandoned their vehicles on the bridge, blocking the flow of traffic.

When police investigated the matter, they were not convinced that

the boy was thrown in the river.

Detective Constable Hlengiwe Thwala and Warrant Officer Harold de Beer with the visibly shocked and hysterical father drove to the family home in Sakhile where they found the boy inside the house, crying and traumatized. He told the police that the suspects attempted to throw him in the river, but he managed to free himself and they fled. The boy was then taken to the doctor to be treated for shock. DM

Manhole leak is a health hazard

Overflowing water from a manhole runs between stalls and next to a busy Mbonani Mayisela Street with hundreds of shoppers pass by every day. One anonymous municipal worker claims that their access to the problem is blocked by stalls nearby.

Countdown for SARS returns continues NATIONAL - The South African Revenue Services will be closing its doors on Friday, 25 November, for their national tax returns submissions. The 2016 tax season has been running for several months countrywide.

To this date over a million South Africans have heeded the call to submit their tax returns. Over the last few months these offices were open until late and remained open on Saturdays to accommodate all the tax-payers.

The Standerton branch has always been busy, particularly on Fridays since the season started. Members of the public are once more reminded to submit their tax returns before Friday’s deadline at the Standerton Branch situated on the corner of Kerk and Prinses Streets. DM

STANDERTON - Thousands of litres of water go to waste at the Taxi Rank and the adjacent water trench is a health hazard. The manhole behind the retail wholesaler in Mbonani Mayisela Street is overflowing at a very high rate of thousands of litres per hour into the nearby trench.

Next to the manhole are two vegetable stalls and a host of informal businesses and barber shops attracting scores of people. As the water flows into the filthy stream that is already littered with rubbish, the smell becomes even more unbearable.

When the overflow was discovered on Friday, 18 November, business people in the vicinity claimed that the leak started a couple of days ago and Lekwa

Municipality’s Water and Sanitation workmen arrived to look at the situation and left. Since then nobody has been back to fix the problem.

One municipal worker, who preferred to remain anonymous, claimed that Water and Sanitation workmen are finding it difficult to get access to the other side of the manhole to unblock the drainage due to informal stalls that are built around the area.

If this is indeed the case, the situation will remain the same detriment of health that it already is. Surely something must be done to save water and the health of hundreds of people who pass the stream on a daily basis. Are stall positions (whether legal or not) really a big enough cause of the supposed inaccessibility? DM

Officers and civilians in court for rhino poaching PROVINCIAL - Two Constables and four other males are expected to appear before the Nelspruit Magistrate’s Court regarding rhino poaching and other related cases. This follows the events of 19 November, when information was received about four people who were going to poach rhinos at the Ngodwana Kangaroo Game Reserve.

A Crime Intelligence-driven operation was conducted within the area. Members from Crime Intelligence in the Pienaar Cluster coordinated and followed up on the given information and went to Ngodwana area wherein two police officials stationed at the Masoyi Detectives were spotted arriving at the Game Reserve, driving a state-owned vehicle to collect the four men. Surveillance was conducted and the two detectives were seen picking up the four individuals who were carrying some bags and plastic bags.

Immediately after the state vehicle was in motion, it was chased until within approximately five kilometres

from the Mbombela Stadium when the driver finally decided to stop. During the search, police members who have already been activated by Crime Intelligence for assistance discovered two freshly cut rhino horns as well as a hunting rifle loaded with four live rounds.

All six men, including the two detectives, aged between 19 and 42 were arrested. The suspects are expected to appear before the Nelspruit Magistrate’s Court on Monday, 21 November, where they will face charges related to rhino poaching, possession of an unlicensed firearm and ammunition. An internal investigation regarding the unethical conduct of the two members is underway.

An intensive investigation is also going to be conducted to ascertain whether the suspects are not involved in other criminal activities. Police members are forewarned not to drag the name of the South African Police Service into disrepute by involving themselves in criminal acts. JD

Be exceptional at your work Seënwense oor geslagte heen

“Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might, for in the grave, where you are going, there is neither working nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom.” (Ecclesiastes 9:10 NIV) The quality of your work is the tangible expression of the invisible reality that the power of God is at work in your heart.

When it comes to work, God wants you to put your whole effort to the task. So, be the exceptional worker God made you to be by following these steps.

Have a “Yes” attitude. A cheerful attitude in your work can reduce the friction in your office, with your customers, and at home. Willingly take on the difficult aspects of your job along with the desirable.

Your willingness to accept responsibility for the difficult tasks - those that involve problems and challenges - will set you apart and allow you to make the most difference. Through these assignments, you will experience your human limitations and the need to rely on God’s strength. You will discover that He is able to do more than you could ever ask or imagine.

Don’t determine your best effort according to standards of perfection.

Only God is perfect, but that doesn’t mean you should settle for mediocrity.

Instead, press on to achieve excellence.

Vince Lombardi said, “Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence.”

Kan ek jou saamneem op “A walk down memory lane,’ soos die Engelsman graag sê.

Vyf en veertig jaar gelede en ons sewetalgesin verhuis na Meyerville. Getrou aan jong kinders se natuur, vind ons dadelik die naaste kafee. Dié een by die Total vulstasie.

Binne ‘n oogwink word die eienaar, oom Botha, soos ‘n familielid. Daagliks koop ons hetsy brood óf melk vir die huishouding.

Vyf kinders eet mos soos ruspes!

Onuitwisbare herinneringe word gekoester. Die koffiemasjien wat ‘wit koffie’ uitspoeg nadat ‘n muntstuk gevoer is. ‘n Pakkie skyfies vir 70c, Wilsontoffies, Rev roomys, Chappies vir ‘n halwe sent en die geurigste melkskommels in reënboogkleure.

Glimlaggend en kopskuddend herleef jy die ‘vellose-verhemelte’ nadat jy en jou

boesemvriendin jul eie kompetisie begin het - Wie kan die meeste swart laag-op-laag ‘Nickerballs’ in die kortste tyd suig. Teen 100 vir ‘n rand... wat ‘n winskopie!

Om te dink dat ons tóé min kon weet dat ons skoolmaats Martin en Vogan die opvolg-eienaars sou wees. Ons kinders, hul vriende, niggies en nefies van heinde en verre tydens samekomste, eerste koers kies na die Botha’s se kafee; nogal in die toentertyd se Bothastraat.

Al is die eiendom tans omhein, word die onvergeetlike oomblikke nooit as te nimmer uit ons gedagtes geweer nie.

Women fight hunger and poverty ahead of coming Festive Season STANDERTON - A group of women formed a social club called “Vuka Mama” , which means “wake up, mama”.

The group of 37 women was formed more than five years ago and the objective is merely to collect enough food for families with little or no income during the Festive Season. These women, who are mostly pensioners and domestic workers, pay R200 each month towards groceries and at the end of the year each member will have contributed R2 400.

The monthly payments are made directly at a store that provides reasonable discount for club members and on an agreed date, all the groceries are delivered and all members come together to share the goods as listed by members. On Saturday, 19 November, members of “Vuka Mama” received the groceries ahead of Christmas. Ms Sara Sekgoto, the leader of the group, said that the club has made

life affordable for poor women to have enough at Christmas when families are gathered for the festivities. DM

Members of “Vuka Mama” got together at Thuto-Thebe Secondary School to share the much needed groceries for the Christmas Festivities that lie ahead.

Are these the keys to your castle?

A transport truck driver picked this bunch of keys up in Beyers Naudé Street. Should the keys belong to you, you are welcome to collect them at the offices of Cosmos News during normal working hours.

Five injured in vehicle accident on R23

STANDERTON - Five people were injured and two of them were in critical condition when they were evacuated to hospital by ambulances to receive treatment. This was after two vehicles collided at the intersection of the R23 and the Robertsdrift road in Extension 6 on Saturday, 19 November.

Paramedics, emergency services and the SAPS were on the scene of the accident within minutes. Some of the injured were treated and stabilized on the scene before being evacuated to hospital. A BMW was travelling from Sakhile on the Robertsdrift road with five occupants when the driver allegedly failed to stop at the Junction and collided with a Hyundai light delivery vehicle with three occupants travelling from Gauteng to Standerton. The BMW was hit

on the left side and the impact caused the Hyundai to catch fire, but due to the speedy reaction of other motorists, the victims were saved from the fire and the flames were doused quickly.

A female passenger of the Hyundai suffered burns to her face and the driver was also critically injured. The BMW suffered serious damage on the passenger-side which resulted in two passengers sustaining injuries. The female passenger of the BMW who escaped injury along with the driver said that they were on their way to Extension 6 and those that were injured are residents of Extension 6. The occupants of the Hyundai were travelling from Johannesburg to KwaZulu-Natal. Police opened a case of reckless driving. DM

Nuwe leierspaar vir Stannies

Laerskool Standerton se jaarlikse meriete-aande, oftewel prysuitdelings, is vroeg in November in die skoolsaal gehou waar ouers, familielede en onderwysers met trots gekyk het hoe die toppresteerders hul toekennings ontvang het, maar ook hoe die skool se nuutverkose leerlingraad vir 2017 bekendgestel is. Die aankondiging van die hoofseun en -meisie was beslis een van die hoogtepunte van die twee funksies en het gesien dat Zandré van Wyk en Louw de Wet in dié gesogte posisies aangestel is. Albei is slaggereed vir 2017 en onderneem om die leisels met erns en verantwoordelikheid oor te neem.
