Ongoing illegal dumping along a watercanal has Table View residents rais-ing several questions.
The water channel, which runs along theR27, has been a sore point for many monthsnow as vagrants seek shelter among thethick vegetation and dump unwanted items.This is the site which many visitors seewhen entering Table View and residents saythe area should be renamed to “TerribleView”.In addition, residents say the water chan-
nel is used as a public ablution facility pol-luting the water as it runs into Rietvlei.
Last week a group of concerned residentsmet on site to show TygerBurger the messfound in the area near the old baby-drop.Here many homeless people can be seen
sleeping and old blankets with broken card-board and rotting food strewn across thewa-ter channel. Residents say despite monthlyclean-ups the area remains a blight on TableView. Resident Alex Lepnik describes thesituationas ridiculous and saysdespite com-plaints to the City of Cape Town, the situa-tion remains unchanged.During the visit an unlocked gate is used
by vagrants to access the area and residentsquestion why this has not been closed off.Community Policing Forum (CPF) chair-
personDavidHarris says the area is cleaned
frequently, but the vagrants just returned.Resident Liza Wilson says no matter how
many times the area is cleaned, there seemsto be no solution in sight.“You can clean up all this mess and by to-
night it will all be back.We need a long-termsolution. This place is just one big mess.”According to Mayco member for safety

Questioned about the canal beused for ablu-tions and the possible effect on thewater go-ing into the vlei, Herron explains ablution
activities near the Bayside Canal will notaffect water quality in the canal unless thefaeces iswashed into the canal, for example,
during rain.“This could result in
localised and relative-ly brief increases inthe E. coli levels re-corded in the canal. Itis unlikely, however,that sporadic inciden-ceswill have ameasur-able effect on the deepwater lake (Riet-vlei)located downstream ofthe canal due to thereed beds which thewater flows through asthese assist withwaterquality improvement.E. coli levels in Ri-etvlei are very low andwell within the recom-mended level for recre-ation such as sailingand water skiing.”Mayco member for
social development and early childhood de-velopment, Suzette Little, says the Reinte-gration Unit has engaged with 83 people inthat area for the 2015/2016 financial year.During these engagements it was found
that these are not all street people, however,many of them are job seekers, day strollersand mothers begging with their children.“In all cases, whenever field workers en-
gage with the street people, we offer assist-ance to them but cannot guarantee that theperson will accept the help we are offering.Our reintegration officer and field officerswork daily in this area offering assistanceto street people.”In addition Herron says prior experience
elsewhere in the city has proved that fen-cing off the waterways and canals is not along-term solution as the fences are eitherremoved for scrap metal, damaged by thosewho want to get access to the canals/water-ways or force those responsible for the lit-tering and dumping to move to another sitenearby.V What do you think is a solution to this ongoingproblem?

Assaults and vehicle related crimeswere hot topics at a recent crimemeeting held in Table View.
Addressing residents at the Communi-ty Policing Forum (CPF) Sector 3 meetinglast week, station commander ColonelDirk Vosloo explained officers were con-cerned about the increase in assaultsacross the precinct.He explainedwhile al-cohol played a role in the high number ofdomestic violence related cases, officersfound peculiar circumstances were fuel-ling assaults across the precinct.Vosloo says despite popular belief that
assault often stemmed from pub brawls,
thebarandnightclubs inTableViewwerenot a source of assault cases.Instead, reports show that fights be-
tween tenants and landlords in sector 2 re-sulted in assault cases. He says even roadrage incidents had escalated.“People are driving and they get frus-
trated and I think we are lacking socialskills. These days people get frustratedwith all the different robots in Table Viewand someone does something to someoneelse and they both get out and it’s fistycuffs. In Parklands we see landlords andtenants hitting each other over rent.”Vosloo says an analysis of the reports
show that 50% of all assault cases are re-lated to domestic violence. Of these casesmany are reported in Site 5 and policewill
soon be hosting education workshops.Another aspect of the high number of
assault cases is the weight they carry.Vosloo explains assaults are categorisedas contact crimes and in terms of theweighting, they create a red flag on crimestatistic as they carry the same weight asmurders.“The assaults are hurting us,” he said.Police also highlighted an increase in
theft out of motor vehicle cases and Vos-loo says despite warnings, residents con-tinue to leavevaluable items in their vehi-cles.This, he explains, provides an opportu-
nity for crime and he pleaded with resi-dents to exercise caution and help spreadthe message to their neighbours.

She met him online and just a fewmonths later her entire life has fallenapart. She was a lonely Johannesburg
woman and after spending many nightsalone while raising her son, she decided togo looking for love.Likemany others she registered on sever-
al dating sites in the hopes of finding herMr Perfect, but now – just a few months lat-er – she sits in her Blouberg apartment con-sidering suicide to end it all. This is the trag-ic love story of a lonely desperate womanwho uprooted her entire life in the pursuitof true love.In recent weeks, police in Melkbosstrand
and Table View have issued numerouswarnings about 419 dating scams followingthe arrest of four fraudsters found to bescamming lonely individuals out of mil-lions. While most people have heard of thescams and dismissed those who fall prey tofraudsters being stupid, thiswomanhas lift-ed the lid on an elaborate emotional scam.The woman, who has asked to remain
anonymous, was an advertising executivewho sought love online. In 2015, she met aSpanish man who claimed to be a construc-tion mogul. He told her he would be coming
to South Africa as he had just landed a con-tract worth R230 million.“He was in the UK at the time but his
mother lives inSeaPoint.He saidhewantedto be with me and that I was beautiful. Hesent me pictures of his daughter. I spoke tohim on the phone and his mother anddaughter.”While it appeared she had met the love of
her life, things were about to change as thecompany she was working for had com-menced with retrenchments. “I was wor-ried and told him I did not knowwhat to do.We discussed it and I decided to take thepackage. He told me I could work for himand we decided I would relocate to CapeTown. I also putmyhouse on themarket butI didn’t expect it to sell that quickly.”She moved to Cape Town and hoped to
meet her new mother-in-law, but was toldas she was not yet married she was not al-lowed to.“He was in a hotel in the UK and told me
he had problems paying his hotel bill. I senthimR40 000. Then he had a heart attack andthe hospital would not let him go until hepaidR100 000. So I sent him themoney.Thenhe needed another R100 000 and so I sent itto him.”She shows TygerBurger the transactions
of large sums of money transferred to FNB
and Absa bank accounts.The woman says after sending him all
this money she continuously questionedthe man about when he would arrive inCape Town.“But it’s just excuse after excuse, so I told
him he was a con and he was very hurtabout what I said. At this point I don’t knowif he will ever come and I went to check onthe mother’s house because I had the ad-dress, but could not find it. Last week Ithought about suicide because I don’t knowwhat to do.”In addition to sending the Spanish man
money, she also sent money to his mother.When presented with the facts of 419 scamsissued by police, the woman says while shedoesn’t understand how she fell for it shestill hopes her Spanish lover will find hisway to Cape Town.“At this time I am not sending him any
money. Women must be so careful becauseI sent this man my CV and I am sure he didresearch on me because he has my ID num-ber. I met a woman from Bellville who is al-so waiting for a German man. It is veryscary what they do to you and I don’t knowwhat I am going to do. Womenmust be verycareful and never send them money.”Thewomanhas reported thematter toTa-
ble View police and will go for counselling.

Spare rib surprise: Bridgette Smith from Table View was the lucky winner of a brand newspecial edition Hyundai i10 Glide recently. A mother of two grown children, she is adamantthat it is her car. “They know I have been looking around for a smaller car, but this one is mine.She is beautiful,” she says excitedly. Bridgette, an admin assistant who works in Montague Gar-dens, always stops at the Table View KwikSpar on Wednesday evenings for their spare rib burger.She was one of the lucky winners in a national competition. Spar shoppers were asked to poptheir till slips, along with their contact details, in the relevant in-store competition entry boxes.A total of one hundred vehicles were given away countrywide.
With the days now running out fast up to the municipal elections, the
various parties contending for your vote are stepping up their election
campaigns. Some of these parties are sticking to the essence of their
manifests and is clearly trying to win voters by having an honest and open
discussion about their vision for our neighbourhood.
However, the one party that continuously boggles the mind is the DA.As I
am sitting here, finalizing our public meeting for Friday, 24 June 2016,
they are yet to confirm who from the DAwill take part in this meeting. This
meeting offers the opportunity to engage with the voters, but yet they
seem to be very reluctant to do so. Well, let’s hope they come through for
the voters.
A very interesting debate was held on Wednesday, 22 June 2016, in
Mitchell’s Plain. It was a radio debate for RSG and the panel consisted of
the DA, ANC, EFF & ACDP. Other very relevant parties to the Western
Capewere relegated to be part of the audience vz. FF+, PatrioticAlliance,
Cope, etc. Throughout the debate the DA used the following as part of
their excuses:
• Apartheid• Lackof resources• A lot of dutiesbeing the responsibility of the national government• Other parties e.g. theFF+ being racist.
Avery short while ago the previous chairman of the TVRAmade a case to
CoCT for the City and some officials being very racist. Now ain’t that
interesting !!. It is clear that the DA can’t bring anything new to the table,
hence trying to shift the focus to the alleged short comings of other
parties. In this debate the Mayor, Patricia De Lille actually shouted at the
EFFguy saying hewas a liar, not her.
Onewould have expectedmorematurity from the ruling party.

mechanic fromKensington says “it’s the bestexperience” he has ever had.Neil felt led by the Lord to quit his job, not
sure what the next step would be. Soon after-wards he heard about the Logos Hopethrough an OM Ministries outreach at theStrewers church in Kensington.“I didn’t want to do it. I tried everything
to get out of it, but it was like the Lord kepttelling me this is what I should do.”The crew and staff are all non-salaried vol-
unteers, with many working in their profes-sional capacity. Neil started out in the galleyand worked his way to the engine room.Since the 1970s the fleet of GBA ships has
beenwelcomed in over 500 ports inmore than160 countries as the shipprovides goodeduca-tional literature and promotes unity in diver-sity.V The Logos Hope is at Jetty 2 at the V&A Waterfrontuntil Monday 11 July.

Volunteers in Table View have beengetting down and dirty to spruce uptheir police stations.
Police officers at Table View Police Sta-tion were all smiles on Saturday when vol-unteers from the neighbourhood watchesand the Community Policing Forum (CPF)showedupwith buckets,mops and disinfec-tants. Just after 09:00 – while many otherresidents were out shopping and at sportsgames – volunteers were making headwaywith scrubbing walls and disinfecting theholding cells.Lastweek, during themonthlyCPFclean-
up, volunteers opted to clean up the Park-lands Satellite Police Station which fol-lowed the clean-up at Table View.CPF chairperson David Harris says the
clean-ups are a small token of appreciationto police.“Our officers go through a lot and do so
much for the community. This is a smallway of lifting their spirits and saying thankyou. So volunteers will scrub and clean andmake the stations more inviting to the pub-lic and create a better environment for ourofficers.”Harris explains they now also have a bet-
ter view of what the stations need and sayswith willing officers it was important forthem to feel valued by the community.“In the end this is for all of us. By having
pride in our police stationswe can showourcommunity that we care. Fighting crime isa hard job and here in Table Viewwe reallyhave officers who give their all. So we canhelp bymaking their days a little brighter.”Station commander Colonel Dirk Vosloo
says it was refreshing to see residents takeownership of their police station.“It really does make me proud to see vol-
unteers come out at six in the morning toclean up the station. It is very nice to seepeople take ownership of their station andwe appreciate the efforts of the volunteers.”

Aformer police detective from Milner-ton Police Station along with two oth-er accomplices have been convicted
for a fraudulent life cover insurance claimamounting to just under a million rand.Last week the Hawks released a state-
ment in which they stated Blondy Ntomb-omzi Ruth Williams (46), Elaine FelicityPretorius (51) and former police detectiveNono Sylvia Ndakisa (48) acted in cahootsduring October 2012, falsifying documentsand subsequently submitting two claims ofR350 000 on each occasion to an insurancecompany.Hawks spokespersonCaptainLloydRam-
ovha says the claim was against the life ofan individual who was falsely declared asdeceased.“The policywas in place for almost a year
from 2009 culminating in a claim the follow-ingyear, the subject ofwhichwasanalleged
Milnertonmurder case. The body of an uni-dentified deceased was falsely identified byWilliams using a fraudulent identity docu-ment at the local mortuary as that of the in-sured.” He says investigations uncoveredthat the supposedly deceased man was infact alive and well in Soweto.The suspectswere arrested in 2014 follow-
ing investigations.“Ndakisa, a police detective,was immedi-
ately suspended pending internal disciplin-ary processes. She allegedly received aR20 000 bribe and arranged that the body ofan unknownmale foreigner be identified asthat of the insured and further assisted thefraudsters by certifying fraudulent copiesof South African IDs through which thecrimes were committed.”On Wednesday 15 June all three accused
were convicted of fraud in the Cape TownRegional Court.

LEWENSKIEKIE
Teach youngones tofall in loveI sat upright with my legs dangling overthe edge of the seat, my tiny handsfidgeted in anticipation. The lights wentdown, the curtains opened, the actionstarted … and I was in love.
I must have been about six or sevenyears old when my Oumie took me to seemy first theatre production. In those daysoptions were limited, but every schoolholiday my gran would drive me off toThe Baxter Theatre to see the latestchildren’s piece.
It was the beginning of a long and verybeneficial love affair.
You see, my love of theatre opened awhole new world to me.
I have travelled to prohibition-eraAmerican prison cells in Chicago, toParis with Phantom of the Opera, toexotic Africa with Postcard from Morocco,experienced Russian folklore with SwanLake and 15th Century England withShakespeare’s Richard III.
The theatreunlocked myimagination andintroduced me to aworld of fantasythat allowed me toexperience stories,music and beautifulimagery that wouldoften stay with melong after I left thevenue.
But, sometimeswhen I speak topeople, I realisethat many still see
the theatre as an exclusive experience,despite the fact that the vibrant artsculture in Cape Town lends itself to farmore inclusivity than ever before.
This winter school holiday, for exam-ple, sees a great number of children’stheatre productions on offer around CapeTown.
Then there’s all the community theatreinitiatives going on around the northernsuburbs – from the Milnerton Players tothe youth-driven Project 021.
And, if theatre isn’t your thing, thestand-up comedy and magic industriesare both on the rise.
Add the huge number of live musicevents in TygerBurger’s weekly “What’sOn” diary and Capetonians really arespoilt for choice when it comes toentertainment – even during the tradi-tionally quiet winter months.
A wise producer once told me thataudiences need to be developed. We needto expose young audiences to the stage inorder to cultivate theatre-going adults.
So, why not take a child to the theatrethis holiday? You might just prompt alife-long love affair. – Louisa Steyl

Peter Smulik puts twoquestions concerning theoperation of nuclear powerstations (“Ignorance overnuclear tech”, TB, 22 June).
One, insurance cover inthe event of a release ofnuclear particles due to anuncontrolled event, accident,or an operating error due tostaff incompetence or con-struction errors.
At Chernobyl it was staffdoing procedures in anunsafe reactor, and atWinscale, sensors wronglypositioned, resulting in a firein the graphite reactor core.

I attended the recent presenta-tion at Milnerton Library onthe proposed rebuilding ofWoodbridge Island bridge. Iwas informed in reply to myquestion that the cost ofdismantling and rebuildingthe bridge is estimated atR29-million.
That point was not men-tioned in your report.
May I suggest that expendi-ture of R29m on a bridge thatactually has very littlehistoric value is completelyunconscionable? The moneycould far better be spent onthe recently announcedshelter for homeless people inKillarney and/or numerousother social projects in JoeSlovo and Dunoon. It isoutrageous that more than 20years after South Africa’stransition to constitutionaldemocracy, so many people inour community are still livingin shacks and squalor.
With local governmentelections on the horizon, mayI express the hope that theCape Town City Council willquickly announce it hasvetoed the bridge proposaland that the funds have beenreallocated to social priori-ties?
Although it had formercharm, the bridge is both aneyesore and dangerous andshould be dismantled.

With regard to the insur-ance for such an event, heshould attend the PublicSafety Information Forum,which will supply him withthe information required fromhis questions.
These he can extend tocover the demolition of thepower plant, when its usefullife has finally expired. Hecan also request for specialistspeakers to lecture on suchsubjects. If Eskom can findsuch a willing person, then hecan be asked.
What he should bear inmind, is that he should bemore afraid of what ishappening to our food thanfrom nuclear waste (a person-al comment!).
We have a situation in asmall community up the WestCoast, where the prediabeticand diabetic incidence is oneperson in three. At the turnof the century – 1800s to 1900s– the world wide cancerincidence was one person inevery one hundred and fifty.
Now it is one in five.Why?Traces of the active chemi-

more longer-term and sustain-able assistance to streetpeople remains on track.
It is true that the CapeCollege of Theology hadn’tsigned the lease by the timewe responded to the mediaenquiry from the Tabletalknewspaper, however, thecollege’s involvement wasalready in the public domainat the time and we had beengiven assurances in writingon three separate occasions,informing us of the following:
. That they were interestedin renting the facility to theCity and that they had startedthe process of engaging withtheir stakeholders on 24 May,
. Reiterating that intereston 25 May, indicating that ameeting would take place todiscuss making parts of thefacility available to the Citywhile they resolve the issuesimpacting on the operations ofthe college,
. A further email on26 May, indicating that thecollege’s Board of Directorswas in favour of the leaseagreement, pending approvalby their Board of Sharehold-ers and again raising the offerof possible early occupationby the City.
As the college had proposeda possible handover date of 1August, I find it interestingthat it had not yet consultedwith the staff and studentsliving on site by last weekwhen the ‘offending’ articleappeared, but I digress.
I would, however, like toassure the public that whilethe lease negotiations with thecollege have unfortunately notborne fruit, it is a minorsetback and nothing more.
We are currently in theprocess of identifying Cityowned properties which willbe used for the purposes ofassessment/restorationcentres.
So, while premises are stillbeing finalised, our visionremains firmly in place: toprovide facilities with servicesdesigned to address the

Neil van der Vyver (8) ry letterlik enfiguurlik stof in die oë van sy teen-standers.
Dié graad 2-leerder van die Voorberei-dingskool Durbanville is onlangs gekiesvir die Suid-Afrikaanse motocross-span.Neil gaan van 19 tot 21 Augustus as die
land se voorste 50 cc-ryer aan die FIM seAfrika-motocross-kampioenskap by Jam-huri Park in Nairobi, Kenia deelneem.Hy is tans nie net die voorloper in die
plaaslike MX-reeks in die Westelike Pro-vinsie nie, maar ook die voorloper in MSAse nasionale reeks in die 50 cc-PRO-klas enhet sover skoonskip gemaak en al die vori-ge nasionale kompetisies gewen wat van-jaar gehou is.“My pa,Werner, het virmy ’nmotorfiets
gekoop toe ek drie jaar oud was en dit ishoe ons by Zone 7 uitgekom het en anderryers ontmoet het.“Ek hetmy eerste resies gehad toe ek vyf
jaar oud was en dit was ook in daai jaarwaarin ek die eerste keer gewen het.“Daar is virmyniks lekkerder as ommet
my bike te ry op my gunstelingbaan, Zone7, nie en ook omal die ander bane enplekkeoor die land heen te sien nie,” vertel Neil.Die oomblik wat Neil graag onthou, is
vroeër vanjaar toe hy voor die Kaapstadsenasionale kampioenskap die rooi bord ge-kry het omdat hy die voorloper op puntein sy klas in die land is.“Dit was vir my ’n baie lekker gevoel, en
dit spoor my aan om net beter te word. Ekoefen twee keer ’n week by Zone 7 vir sotwee uur op ’n slag. Ek is baie opgewondeom Kenia toe te gaan, en ek gaan my bestegee en gaan om te wen,” sê Neil vol moed.
As dit by helde in dié sport kom, verwyshy onmiddellik na die Amerikaner RyanDungey wat verskeie titels hou.“Ryan is my held en dit sal cool wees om
hom eendag te ontmoet.”
