Award Recipient

ERMELO - Mpumalanga police and the community have welcomed the six life sentences imposed on a 28-year-old man who pleaded guilty to three murders, three rapes, and three robberies. Thobani Fakude was sentenced when he appeared in the Ermelo Circuit of Pretoria’s North High Court on Tuesday, 24 August.

Fakude pleaded guilty to the charges on 12 August. The court heard that all the incidents happened near Volksrust when Fakude ran terror from November 2012. Provincial spokesman Brigadier Selvy Mohlala said the High Court heard that the suspect broke into the elderly woman’s house, raped her and fatally assaulted her.

In another incident he was accused of attacking a couple where the woman was raped and both victims fatally stabbed with a garden fork. The last victim who survived the ordeal to tell the gruesome story was raped, strangled and left for dead. “In all the incidents, the suspect robbed the victims of their belongings which included jewellery” he said.

DNA tests positively linked the accused to all the cases. For three counts of murder and three counts of rape, Fakude was sentenced to six life terms in prison, eight years for each housebreaking, 15 years for each robbery and nine years for the attempted murder. All the other sentences will run concurrently with the first life sentence. DM

STANDERTON - The Standerton Taxi association would like to inform the public that there is a difference between a normal minibus and a minibus taxi. This follows after an article was published where four people lost their lives in an accident on the Secunda road. The minibus that was involved was not a registered taxi with the taxi association and as it did not have a registration number, it actually transported the taxi association’s passengers illegally to and from Sasol.

People and passengers must know which taxis are safe to use as public transport. Registered taxis have a registration number of the taxi association that is openly displayed on the front of the vehicle. All vehicles transporting passengers without this registration number, do so illegally.

The Taxi Association feels that the article that was published showing a minibus without a registration number, is damaging the image of the association. Should you require more information regarding the registration of taxis, you may visit their offices at office number 7, Willem Veldsman building or alternatively contact the association on 017 712 2354 or the Chairperson, Mr Mandla Mbonani on 072 1797 498.

STANDERTON - A 16-year-old girl was shot in the left foot while another woman was shot in the left knee.

They are the survivors of a shooting rampage of the ladies’ ex-boyfriend, while her new boyfriend is in the mortuary with gunshot wounds in his back and waist.

When the police arrived on the murder scene on 5 September, at about 22:15 they noticed eight bullet holes through the door of the house. On further investigation eight empty cartridges were also found on the scene and one projectile was found inside the room.

The lady identified the person responsible as her previous boyfriend and stated that he did not want them to break up, but that she has already moved on and got a new boyfriend.

The suspect was arrested and is in custody. He was caught hitching a ride on the R23, trying to flee back to his original home in the Limpopo Province.

He appeared in the Magistrate Court on Tuesday, 8 September, on two charges of attempted murder and one of murder. JD

STANDERTON - Two thieves who robbed a motorist of her cellphone at the intersection of Walter Sisulu and Nelson Mandela Drive near the Excel filling station last week Wednesday, 26August, in midday were arrested soon after.

It is alleged that a female motorist waited at the intersection for the traffic light to go green when two suspects opened the passenger door and grabbed her cellphone. In a state of confusion and panic, the woman drove off and fled. An eye witness quickly flagged down a police vehicle passing by and reported the incident.

The two suspects were seen running towards the bridge at the railway station, police gave chase, and the suspects were

nabbed hiding behind some trees. A Samsung Galaxy cellular phone was found in their possession. The two suspects aged 20 and 25 were taken into custody to face robbery charges. An eyewitness said that the woman that was robbed drove a green Hyundai Tucson, but he could not see the registration number of the vehicle.

The recovered red Samsung Galaxy cellular phone has a white cover, but because the suspect switched off the phone, police are finding it difficult to trace the rightful owner. Standerton Police wishes to advise the owner of the cellphone to come to the station for identification, or call Lieutenant Johannes Nhlabathi on 079 891 5365. DM

STANDERTON – A popular PR Councillor of the Lekwa Local Municipality is in hot water after she allegedly assaulted a member of the community three weeks ago. The councillor appeared in Standerton’s Magistrate Court two weeks ago where she is facing a charge of assault. The case was postponed until 13 September.

According to reliable sources, the councilor who stays in Ward 3, was reportedly addressing a group of people in Ward 3 when the victim, passed in a vehicle using a loud hailer to alert people of a branch meeting of the ANC. The Councillor allegedly accused the victim of taking pictures of her with her cellular phone.

A heated argument ensued and the accused

allegedly assaulted the victim in the face and stabbed her in the right hand with a sharp object. The victim went to Standerton Provincial Hospital for treatment where she received several stitches. She opened a case of assault at Sakhile police station. The suspect was not arrested, but was warned by police to appear in court to face charges of assault. The incident has apparently caused uproar in the community of ward 3. It is reported that the community is very upset with the incident and has vowed not to vote for the party which the PR councilor represents.

The victim, whose name is known to Cosmos News, declined to comment about the incident, but she admitted that the matter is being handled by the court. DM

Drie abnormale vragmotors het verlede Woensdag deur Standerton beweeg. Die eerste vragmotor kon suksesvol onderdeur die Meyervillebrug beweeg, maar die tweede vragmotor het net betyds gesien dat hy dit nie gaan maak nie en het sentimeters van die brug af gestop, met die derde vragmotor enkele meters agter hom. Verkeer was weerskante van die brug vir ure opeengehoop, maar teen ongeveer 16:00 was die brug weer oop vir verkeer.

Onverwagse ‘Stop-n-Go’

Kort na 15:00 Maandag, was twee voertuie in ‘n botsing betrokke in ‘n besige kruising in die sentrale sakegebied. Twee mans, wat in ‘n Nissan bakkie gery het, het volgens inligting klaarblyklik ‘n rooi verkeerslig verontagsaam en reg voor een van die splinternuwe munisipale voertuie, wat verlede Woensdag in ontvangs geneem is, ingedraai. Volgens ooggetuies het die twee mans net na die ongeluk self uit die voertuig geklim en albei het met die ambulans se aankoms op die teerpad neergeval. Hulle is afgevoer na die hospitaal vir verdere observasie. Die munisipale voertuig se bestuurder is ongedeerd, maar die nuwe voertuig sal heel waarskynlik vir ‘n tyd buite aksie wees. Standerton nooddienste was vinnig op die toneel en die normale verkeersvloei kon vinnig herstel word. Die betrokke Nissan bakkie is Dinsdagoggend vroeg opgemerk waar dit reeds weer in die dorp beweeg.

Matteus 11: 28-30 (NLV)Kom na My toe, julle almal wat moeg is en swaar laste moet dra, en Ek sal julle lewens verkwik. Neem my juk op julle skouers. Kom leer van My, want Ek is sag en nederig van hart, en julle sal rus en nuwe moed vir julle lewe kry. Want my juk sal sag op julle skouers rus en my las is lig om te dra.

Beleef jy dat hierdie week net verby gevlieg het? Jy probeer dink waaraan jy en jou gesin tyd spandeer het, maar sukkel om selfs te onthou wat dit was. Jesus nooi ons uit om in tye soos dié by Hom te kom leer. Hy leer ons verder om Sy juk op ons skouers te neem en verseker ons dat Sy juk sag is, en dat Sy las lig is om te dra. Wat beteken Jesus se “rus”? Wat gebeur wanneer jy jou fokus verskuif van werk, werk, werk na rus?

Kom ons kyk na die geheim wat versteek is in die verhaal van ‘n man wat weens swakheid vir 38 jaar gely het wat deur Jesus genees is in Johannes 5: 8-9. Jesus sê vir hom: “Staan op, neem jou bed en loop.” En dadelik het die man gesond geword sy bed geneem en geloop en dit op die Sabbatdag. Ek het die Here gevra hoekom Hy die man beveel het om eers sy bed op te neem. Hoekom het Jesus hom nie net beveel om op te staan en te loop nie?

Hoekom moes die man sy bed optel en dit saam met hom neem voordat hy weggeloop

het? Die Here het aan my geopenbaar dat die bed ‘n simbool van Sy rus is. So, wat Jesus in werklikheid gesê het is: “Staan op, neem terug My ewige rus wat ek aan die kruis vir jou finaal bewerkstellig het en gaan voort met jou lewe. Moenie langer deur vrees, kommer en menslike swakheid wegkwyn nie.”

Is dit nie eienaardig dat Jesus hierdie daad van genesing doelbewus op die Sabbatdag gedoen het nie? Wat God hierdeur vir ons wil sê is dat wanneer ons in Hom rus, Hy deur ons kan werk! Is dit nie wonderlik nie? Tog was daar ‘n groep mense wat ontevrede was dat die Here hierdie man genees het. Nie omdat Hy genees is nie, maar omdat Jesus gekies het om dit buite die wettiese orde van die Sabbatdag te doen (Johannes 5: 10-12, 16). Die godsdienstige mense was ontsteld omdat hulle genesing as werk beskou en die wet bepaal dat geen werk op ‘n Sabbat verrig mag word nie.

Wettiese mense kyk oor die seën van hierdie wonderlike wonderwerk en sien net die probleme raak omdat hulle selfgeokkupeer en selfreverdigend wil wees. Jesus het gereeld gekies om op die Sabbatdag mense te genees om ons te herinner dat wanneer ons in Hom rus, Hy dan in staat is om deur ons te werk vir Sy volmaakte doel met ons elkeen se lewens! Hoe gaan jy hierdie nuwe week aanpak?

Laerskool Kalie de Haas het pas vir die eerste keer in die skool se geskiedenis en as gevolg van die groei in getalle, ‘n adjunkhoof aangestel – en dit nogal ‘n baie bekwame vrou. Me Theresa Botma neem al sedert Januarie 2015 as adjunkhoof waar en staan die pos nou volwaardig vol. By haar is mnr Pieter Bakker, die hoof van Laerskool Kalie de Haas.

ERMELO - Verlede jaar tydens Hoërskool Ermelo se Eeufees-reünie, het oud-leerlinge en -onderwysers oor sterk matriekgroepe ge-sels wat oor die afgelope eeu uitgestaan het. Die gevolgtrekking is gemaak dat daar twee groepe is wat ‘n besonderse indruk geskep het – die matriekklasse van 1974 en 1985.

Die besondere 1985-matriekklas het die af-gelope naweek (tussen 4 en 6 September) vir hul 30 jaar-reünie by hul geliefde alma mater bymekaargekom en ‘n heerlike opskop gehou.

Tydens die reünie is onvergeetlike tye in herinnering geroep en het die meeste gesprekke het met die woorde “onthou jy nog...” begin.

Die groep wil hiermee graag vir Hoërskool Ermelo vir die kosbare tye en vir die feit dat hulle deur die opvoeding van hul hoërskool-jare by die beste skool gevorm is, bedank.

“Dit is hier by EHS waar ons geleer het dat wanneer jy nie meer in geld, komplimente of publisiteit belangstel nie, jy die toppunt van sukses behaal het,” het die groep se bedan-king aan die skool gelui.

“Ons wil ook baie dankie sê vir die huidige bestuur van die skool.

Die skool is steeds, ná 101 jaar, in ‘n puik toestand en ons is aangenaam verras oor al die uitbreiding by die skool.

Dankie dat julle so mooi na ons alma mater kyk. Ons besef net weer eens dat dit ‘n gróót voorreg en seën is om deel te kon wees van hierdie pragtige skool. Mag Hoër-skool Ermelo nog baie jare voortgaan met sy tradisie van puik akademie, sport en kultuur. Doen so voort!

“Ons het jou lief, ou Ermelo. Ons sal jou nooit vergeet!” DK

EHS-matrieks hou 30 jaar-reünie

Die 1985-matriekgroep van Hoërskool Ermelo het die afgelope naweek hul 30 jaar-reünie by die skool gevier en weer hul jeugdae by dié skool in herinnering geroep.

‘n Eerste vir Kalies... Die sestiende Hoëveld Bonsmara groep-

veiling is op Woensdag, 19 Augustus, by Jonkersdam naby Standerton aangebied. 29 bulle is verkoop met ‘n gemiddeld van R 31 414. Die duurste bul, Lot 14, is verkoop deur PS Lourens van Ermelo aan Cassim Hassim van Trichardt vir R50 000. CMW het die veiling aangebied met PM Swart as afslaer.

College, culture and diversitySTANDERTON - The recreational hall at Gert Sibande College Standerton cam-pus was a beehive of activity when level-4 students took time off from their classes to display their culture and diversity in the form of indigenous food, cultural attire, and tribal dances as part of their educa-tional requirement to learn, understand and adapt different cultural practices within the diversity of South Africa. Fourteen tribal groups participated in the exciting parade. Each group was allowed limited time to go

through their cultural dances and music. Thereafter, indigenous food was displayed allowing participants to go around all the tables and have a taste of the food prepared in accordance with different cultures and traditions.

Ms R de Lange, the chief organiser of the event, was thrilled with the success and the interaction of people from differ-ent cultures. College management formed part of this splendid social event. DM

“People keep on asking me why I want a Bible when everyone asked me what I wanted. I just wish that they would under-stand that I feel that I was called. I am sure

that one day I will be a pastor” said Charles when the Bible was handed to him.

The overwhelming response and gratitude received from the community just goes to show that such distinguished community service will not go by unnoticed. Hillel Coetzer from AfriForum Standerton also ex-pressed his gratitude for the unselfish beha­vior displayed by Charles. JD

ERMELO - ‘n Groot groep van Hoërskool Ermelo se tennis-spelers het tydens die naweek van 28 Augustus aan die interdis-trikte-toernooi wat in Nelspruit gehou is, deelgeneem en hulself weer eens as ‘n krag bewys waarmee daar beslís rekening gehou moet word. Die drie distrikte wat dinge op die baan uitgespook het, was die Laeveldstreek, Wes-Mpumalangastreek en die Gert Sibande-, oftewel Hoëveldstreek.

Wat die o-18-afdeling betref, het die volgende spelers uitge-blink vir die Gert Sibande-span – Evan Kemp, Christo Coetzer,

Lesshika Vala, Annika de Jager, Helé Schutte en Desireé Jordaan. Die o-18-span van Gert Sibande het ook koning in die kompe-tisie gekraai en só bewys dat die Ermelo-spelers die kern van die span gevorm het.

Stefan Kemp het aan die o-18-afdeling van die interdistrikte-toernooi deelgeneem en ook die afgelope naweek (3 tot 6 Sep-tember) dinge in die Mpumalanga Mini 3-toernooi in Secunda uitgespook waar hy as algehele wenner van dié afdeling gekroon is. DK

STANDERTON - Die o-14- en o-15-krieketspanne van Hoërskool Standerton het Donderdag, 27 Augustus, teen Hoërskool Hoogenhout te staan gekom en die kolwe laat kreun toe altwee spanne as oorwinnaars huiswaarts gekeer het.

Die o-15’s was op hul tuisveld tydens die derde kragmeting van die seisoen teen die Hoogenhout-spelers in aksie. Die manne was omtrent in rep-en-roer ná ‘n oortuigende oorwinning teen Hoërskool Evander ‘n paar weke gelede. Die Standerton-kaptein, Stephan Lacock, het die wenlootjie

getrek en besluit om eerste te kolf. Dié besluit het dividende getoon met die feit dat Hoërskool Standerton die volle 20-beurte met 156/3 op die telbord deurgekolf het.

Stephan het sy goeie vorm voortgesit en vir ‘n tweede agtereenvolgende wedstryd ‘n 50-tal geslaan sonder om sy paaltjie te verloor.

Hy het die beurt met 64 lopies klaargemaak en goeie bystand van Michael Crumplim, wat 32 lopies aangeteken het, ontvang.

Hoërskool Hoogenhout se kolwers het 100 lopies vir die

verlies van 8 paaltjies in 20 beurte aangeteken. Standerton se boulers wat uitgeblink het, was Donovan Uys met 2/13 in vier beurte en Stephan Lacock met 2/13 in drie beurte. Hoërskool Standerton het hul teenstanders gevolglik met 56 lopies geklop en is tot dusver nog onoorwonne.

Wat die o-14’s betref, het Hoërskool Standerton se spannetjie Hoërskool Hoogenhout met sewe paaltjies geklop nadat hul teenstanders met 86 lopies in 20 beurte vasgepen was. Die SHS-kolwers het die wenteiken in die 10de boulbeurt bereik. (Uitslae saamgestel deur Brendan Coetzee) DK

ERMELO - Ligbron Akademie vir Tegnologie se juniorkrieketspanne het die afgelope twee weke hul skool se naam hoog gehou toe hulle vir Hoërskool Ermelo en Hoërskool Volksrust ore aangesit het.

Die o-14-span het Hoërskool Ermelo met 61 lopies geklop.

Die Liggies het eerste gekolf en 205 lopies vir die verlies van drie paaltjies aangeteken. Charl du Toit (80), Dian Bakker (52) en Mark Niebuhr (29) was van die uitblinkkolwers en het met hul vernuf tot die skool se pragoorwinning bygedra. Tydens Hoërskool Ermelo se boulbeurt, het die Liggies hul teenstaanders tot 144 lopies vir die verlies van agt paaltjies beperk.

Pieter Cloete het drie paaltjies vir 19 lopies geneem, terwyl Zartius Swart met drie paaltjies vir 11 lopies spog.

Die Liggies het met net 10 paaltjies koning gekraai en hul teenstaanders in die eerste kolfbeurt vir slegs 49 lopies uitgeboul. Die Liggies het hierdie telling in die vyfde boulbeurt verbygesteek en twee kolwers opgelewer wat 21 lopies elk aangeteken het – Hanco Bakker en Willie Beck. Wat die boulers betref, het Schalk van Rheede van Oudtshoorn drie paaltjies in drie beurte vir slegs drie lopies geneem. DK
