n KATMOORDENAAR het vir dietweede keer in twee maande
toe-geslaan in Noorder-Paarl.
Wynand Haasbroek van Truter-straat het verlede week op di
gesinse sterwende kat afgekom in hultuin.
Ek was op pad werk toe, toe mybuurman my aandag op Rudi
vestigwat onder n bos gel het.
Ek kon dadelik sien dat hy besigwas om te vrek. Skuim het uit
symond geborrel en hy kon skaars be-weeg.
Die kat het binne enkele minutegesterf nadat Haasbroek op hom
af-gekom het.
Ek weet nie hoe lank hy daar gelhet nie, maar ek kon sien dat hy
nbaie pynlike dood gesterf het.
Dit is die tweede kat binne tweemaande wat die
Haasbroek-gesinaan die dood afstaan.
Hul ander kat het op dieselfde wy-se gesterf.
Albei ons katte was baie gehegaan ons familie. Hulle was baie
liefvirkindersenhetnievergedwaalnie.Rudi sou soms by ons bure se
kin-dersgaanspeel.Niemandhetooitge-kla nie.
Wynand se ma, Mimi, het Rudi
seliggaamdieselfdeoggendnadieBou-levard Dierehospitaal geneem.
Hieris van sy organe verwyder en na nlaboratorium gestuur vir
toetse omvas te stel waaraan hy dood is.
En Vrydag is die resultate metskok ontvang: Rudi is vergiftig
metn verbode gifstof, dieldrin.
Hierdie insekdoder is n verbodemiddel in Suid-Afrika en die
meestelande wreldwyd.
VeeartsdrEmileduPlessishetge-s dat n dier wat met dieldrin
vergif-tig word, n baie pynlike dood sterf.
Hy het bevestig dat dieldrin reedsvanaf 1983 n verbode middel is
ennie meer verkoop mag word nie.
Haasbroekisvasbesloteomniediesaak daar te laat nie en het n
klagby die Paarl polisiestasie gel.
Veral duiweboere is dikwels in nstryd gewikkel met katte.

Fees op berg bendrukAnne Kruger
DIE nuwe Cultivaria-fees wat verlede naweek opPaarlberg
aangebied is, kan nog n groot suksesword. So meen die meerderheid
feesgangers on-der die duisende wat die naweek daar ingeloerhet,
ten spyte van n paar renbuie.
Dis pragtig hier op die berg - n baie mooi ligging,enekhet
nbaiegoeieproduksiegesien,DieNaaima-sjien, het Wellingtonner Hester
de Kock ges.
Verskeie plaaslike inwoners meen die feit dat aldie produksies
op een terrein aangebied word, is ngroot pluspunt.
Dit was n wonderlike naweek, s Michel Fishervan die Paarl.
Ons het puik vertonings gesien, en die pryse
vanverversingswasgladniebuitensporignie.Dienuweterrein het n
feestelike atmosfeer gehad, en menseuit die hele gemeenskap het
heerlik saamgekuier.
Benewens die aanbod van teater en musiek be-dags in tente op die
terrein, is die amfiteater by dieTaalmonument vir drie aande
agtermekaar volge-pak vir puik produksies waaronder Tydloos,
ChrisChameleon en Mango Groove.
Bokant die amfiteater is n nuwe terras geskepwaar verversings
bedien is.
Van die feesgangers het gekla dat die verversings-gebied
tekleinenbeknopwas, endathulle vermoesstap op stofgetrapte paadjies
na sommige van dietente op die terrein.
Maar feesganger Hugo Holloway meen at

Daar is simpatiek hulp verleenaan vele mense wat moeilik oor die
weg kom. Ek be-sef dat hierdie diens geld moes kos en was
derhalweverbaas dat dit gratis aangebied is.
Volgens feesdirekteur Gerhard Meyer was dieaanbiedingvandie
feesopPaarlberg nuitersuitda-gende projek, veral omdat die
grondeienaar, die De-partement van Openbare Werke, nie al die
terrein-voorbereiding betyds voltooi het nie.
Ons moes reuse-uitgawes aangaan om te verse-ker dat die fees wel
voortgaan.
My gevoel is egter dat dit die beste skuif is en datdit die
gerieflikste feeskonsep in die land is vir fees-gangers wat
uiteraard mos die klinte is, en waar-sonder ons nie n fees kan
aanbied nie. Die kunste-naars met wie ek gesels het sover was ook
positief.
Daar kort nog baie werk aan infrastruktuur,paadjies,
landskappering,beligtingendiesmeeromdievenueperfektekryenekvertrouonssaldieborgekry

Watdiebeknopte verversingsterrasbetref, is onsbeplanning om
volgende jaar te verseker dat daaroorgenoeg ruimte is vir mense wat
by die tafels wilkuier en die pragtige uitsig wil geniet.
Daar was Paarliete wat my kom groet het en geshet dat hul nog
nooit by die venue was nie en dathul baie bendruk was.

Pastoor woedend oor taxisLise Beyers
n PASTOOR het verlede week glo
uitge-haakbydieverkeersafdelingennprovin-siale verkeersbeampte
bygedam.
Die drama het Donderdagmiddag ontvouby die
Daljosafat-toetssentrum, waar pas-toor Cyril David Scholtz twee
minibustaxisgeneem het vir padwaar-digheidstoetse.
Scholtz, wat as pastoorgereeld praatjies lewer
opRadioKC,bedryfsyeietaxi-besigheid.
Die voertuie het egterdaardie dag nie hul toet-sings geslaag
nie. Van diebande was afgeloop, ligtehet nie gewerk nie en eenvan
die voertuie se hand-rem was buite werking.
HirhetScholtztoereedswarm onder die kraag ge-raak. Hy het uit
die toetslo-kaal gestorm om by dietoetssentrumhoof,
CorrieCornelissen, te gaan kla.
Cornelissen het Scholtzgevra om te bedaar en hetaan hom
verduidelik diewet is die wet en dat syvoertuie nie padwaardig
isnie.
Scholtz is terugnadie toetslokaalwaarhyglo verder gaan vuur
spuug het.
ProvinsialeverkeersbeampteKenPheifferhet hom ook probeer
kalmeer, maar Scholtzhetvolgensooggetuiesletterlikinsygesigbe-gin

En die volgende oomblik haak Scholtz afen boks vir Pheiffer reg

venster vinnig opgedraai ensodoende die verkeersman se arm
vasge-vang.
Di isookerggekneusndie voorval.
Scholtz is toe met nspoed daar weg.
Cornelissen het hiernavir Pheiffer na die Mbekwe-ni
polisiestasie vergesel omnklagvanaanrandingteenScholtz te l.
Maar met hul aankomswas Scholtz reeds daar enbeweer toe dat hy
deurPheiffer aangerand is.
n Klagdossier is wel teenScholtz geopen.
Scholtz het by navraagges dat hy nie verder oordie
aangeleentheid wil uit-brei nie, n konsultasiemet sy
regsadviseur.
VolgenshomhetPheifferhom eerste teen die gesiggestamp met sy
kop. Oog-getuies wat op die toneel
was, ontken egter hierdie bewering.Cornelissen het ges dat hy
Scholtz al n
geruime tyd ken en nog nooit die man so be-duiweld gesien
nie.
Maar ons laat ons nie deur sulke gedragintimideer nie. Ons sal
die wette gehoor-saam.

THE killing of a cat in Paarl North by means of poisoning,
leaves abitter taste in the mouth.
The death of this animal was long, slow and excruciatingly
painful.Unfortunately this is nothing new in the area. There have
been
a number of poisonings and even reports of cats dying after
beingcaught in traps.
In some cases, cats are caught, transported into the mountains
andleft to fend for themselves.
A local vet says that cats often go missing and his conclusion
is thatthese cats have been killed or run over, because normally a
cat willfind its own way home.
There is no excuse for people to resort to poisoning animals.
Yes,cats can sometimes be a pest to neighbours, and cat owners
shouldensure that their pets are neutered or spayed to curb their
wanderingstreak.
But the irritated party should discuss the problem of a problem
petwith their neighbours and not take drastic, cruel and cowardly
meas-ures such as poisoning.

Philip Barnard(die oorspronklike)
Paarl Hospitaal se ongevalle stel ons teleurOP 7 Augustus, n
Saterdag-aand, moes ek een van my fami-lielede na die Paarl
Hospitaalneem,omdathysiekgeraakhet.
Met ons aankoms is ons toe-gelaat in die eerste wagkamer.Om
01:00 is sy observasie ge-doen. Die wagkamer se nuwestoele was ook
vol bloed.
Hierna is ons na die tweedewagkamer verwys. Hier het ekmy
verstom om te sien hoe 20tot 30 pasinte, sommige meterge pyn, sit
en wag om gehelpte word - sommiges met bloed-wonde wat nog vars
was.
Sommige pasinte het al opstoele gel en slaap, wat vir myn
aanduiding was dat hulle allank daar gewag het.
By nadere gesprekke met pa-sinte moes ek uitvind dat som-mige al
sedert die middag daarsit om deur n dokter gehelp teword.
Dit was hardverskeurend omte sien hoe n man op sy kniegaan sit
het van die pyn. n Mei-sie wat in haar oog gesteek washet die hele
tyd gehuil. n Manmet glasstukke aan sy
oogbankhettoemaardieaftoggeblaasenis net met sy oop wond huis
toe.
Nog was dit nie die einde vanons dilemma nie. My familielidwas
inpynenekhethomnetbe-
tyds in die toilet gekry om te vo-meer.
Die ure het stadigaan verby-getik,maarniemandisooitvan-af die
wagkamer geroep nie.
Teen 17:00 het ek besluit omhuis toe te gaan. My vrou het bydie
familielid gebly.
Die Sondagoggend is ek terughospitaal toe. My familielid iseers
om 08:30 gehelp, maar diedokter het hom meegedeel datdie ongevalle
daar is vir messte-ke en wonde.
Die dokter het hom na n kli-niek verwys en hom nog n briefook
gegee om n kliniek te be-soek.
Ek dink dat dit onnodig is omn volle nag in n noodeenheid tewag
vir hulp en dan word jy niegehelp nie.
Ek wil graag weet hoekomdaar so n vertraagde proses is
om n dokter te sien en hoekomdaarniemeerdoktersoornawe-ke aan
diens kan wees nie.

Residents enforce streetjustice in MbekweniLise Beyers
ANOTHER kangaroocourt were held inMbekweni this pastweekend, in
an upri-sing of the commu-nity against crime.
Twoweeksagoamanwas allegedly beaten todeath by an angry mobat
the informal settle-ment OR. The commu-nity accused Thandux-olo
Peter (38) of robbinga woman of her hand-bag the previous day.
Instead of reportingthe incident to theMbekweni police sta-tion,
the communityseverely assaulted thesuspect.
Earlier that sameweek, a delegation ofthe community metwith
police to voicetheir anger about cri-me in the area.
According to sour-ces, the community isunsatisfied about the
fact that criminalsare not being put behind bars, but arecontinuing
to walk the streets days afterthey have committed crimes.
Residents say they are disillusionedby the actions of the courts
and willtherefore hold their own court procee-dings.
Last weekend three young suspectssuspected of various robberies
in the
area, were apprehen-ded by the communi-ty of Langabuya infor-mal
settlement.
The victims weretied up, severely bea-ten and pelted withstones.
Police arrivedon the scene, possiblysaving the lives of
thevictims.
The victims were atthat stage already co-vered in blood
andunconscious.
Akhona Jordan, Si-yabonga Poni and Si-vuyile Nani, all resi-ding
in the area, weretreated in hospital.
Police are investiga-ting charges of at-tempted murder. Noone
has, however,been arrested.
The Mbekweni sta-tion commander, ColCP Geldenhuys,asked the
public to
refrain from taking the law into theirown hands.
Those who are found guilty of theseactions will themselves end
up before acourt of law.
Anyone who can help the police withtheir investigation can
contact the policestation at 021 868 9901.
Policemen robdelivery vehicleSUSPECTS possibly posing as
policemenrobbed a delivery vehicle in Du Toits Kloofshortly after
midnight on Saturday.
The driver of the Hyundai truck wastransporting a consignment of
cigaretteson Du Toits Kloof Pass in the direction ofPaarl, when he
was allegedly pulled over byawhiteFordFocuswithblue lights
flashingon its roof.
Two men, wearing bullet-proof vests,
or-deredtheoccupantsofthetruckoutatgun-point.
A minibus taxi with five men inside thenstopped at the scene and
the two victimswere forced into it.
The minibus drove off in the direction ofWorcester and dropped
the two men at theweighbridge near Rawsonville, robbingthem also of
their cellphones and cash.
The Hyundai truck was found desertedon Sunday near Kraaifontein,
but the trail-er with its consignment was missing.
Cigarettes to the value of R3,9 millionhave been stolen.
No one has yet been arrested in connec-tion with the
incident.

vir dronkbestuur opWellington. Volgens polisiewoordvoerder,
luit.Diana Linee, het die verdagte teen n ho spoedin Hoofstraat,
Wellington, gery toe hy beheeroor sy Toyota Camry verloor het, teen
n gepar-keerde Fiat gebots het, waarna die Camry oordie
middelmannetjie geswaai het en sodoenden palmboom platgery het,
asook n lamppaal.Die motor het toe teen n muur aan die
teenoor-gestelde kant van die pad tot stilstand
gekom.Polisiebeamptes wat by die toneel aangekomhet, het ges dat
die man so dronk was dat hynie eens op sy voete kon staan nie.

Ystervark in Hoofstraat laat stapmaats

Wynand Fourie was Saterdagoggend 29Oktober om 05:55 op pad om sy
stapmaats(ds Gawie van Bruikhuizen en sy vrou, Su-san) in
Bothastraat te kry om in Paarlbergte gaan stap.
Net voor die Polisiekollege het Wynandgesien hoe n ystervark
vanuit die Hoof-straat stap tot indie
tuinvandiePolisiekol-lege.
Die veiligheidswag by die Polisiekollegehet hom buite weste
geskrik vir die vreem-de gedierte.
Dieystervarkhetstukkendemerkelangssy bek gehad en Wynand het
besluit dat ditdie beste sal wees om die ystervark terugte probeer
kry in die berg.
Heel versigtig het hy daarin geslaag omhomterug te begelei
oordieHoofstraat enop inMalanstraatmetdiehulpvansystap-maats.
Die ystervark het sy eie roete gekies ensy begeleiers moes soms
vinnig draf om byte bly en te keer dat hy in tuine ingaan.
In Kruisstraat het hy egter n lang ruk inn tuin gaan vassteek en
dit het nogal n tydgevat om hom weer daar weg te kry.
UiteindelikisdieoptogopinBothastraat,dwars in Napierstraat en by
van der Poels-doordrift op tot in die berg.
Die episode het langer as n halfuur ge-duur, maar uiteindelik
was hy veilig waarhy hoort in Paarlberg, vertel Van

Join your
fireprotectionassociationACHALLENGINGfireseasonliesaheadaf-terthelowwinterrainfallandtheSAWea-ther
Services are predicting a hot drysummer this year that could result
in nu-merous runaway fires.
Landowners are urged to join their
localfireprotectionassociations(FPA),notonlytohelpcombat fires
inruralareas,but for theirown benefit in case of a fire.
Larger insurance companies have startedto reject veldfire damage
claims in caseswhere there isaFPA in theareaand theclai-ming
landowner is not a member.
Landowners who are not members of anFPA will also be presumed
guilty if a veld firestarts or spreads from their property andthey
could end up having to pay for all
fire-fightingcosts,aswellasanydamagesoftheirneighbours.
Advantages of FPA membership are a de-creased risk of veldfires
and assistance infighting them;nopresumptionofnegligencein civil
claims; cost saving through sharingof services, and insurance
