OVER 20 undocumentedpersons living in theMountainRise policing areawere appre-

hended on Friday, 30 May, during asuccessful integrated crime preven-tion operation.

The operation, which lasted over10 hours, saw immigration officersfrom the Department of HomeAffairs,withotherspecial forcesfromthe police, and almost 100 lawenforcement officials infiltratingthe Mountain Rise Policing area.

Immigration officers said thatmany of the foreigners come fromMalawi.

Often these people hide out inships,on theshelfnear thepropellersor in the area where the anchor andchain is stored. The officers also saidthat theses people can survive twoweeks with glucose powder and abottle of water.

The first stage of the operationtook place in Site 11 informalsettlement in Woodlands. Membersof the police showed visibility andconducted stop and searches whennecessary in order to root out anyillegal immigrants.

“Theentireareawascoveredwithpolice and immigration officers.Varioushouses in the informal settle-ments were identified. Police wereable to apprehend11undocumentedpersons without a valid passport orpermit to be in our country,” saidWarrant Officer Joshua Maistry,corporate communications andyouth desk coordinator.

High police visibility continued

throughout the Site 11 informalsettlement.

“The local residents came out intheir numbers to see what was goingon and commended the police for thehigh level of visible policing,” saidMaistry.

The members were also applaud-ed for the arrests of the illegalimmigrants, who residents believehave been committing crimes in thearea.

Thembilishle Informal Settlementformedthesecondstageof theopera-tion. Police engaged in the sameprocess with patrols and stop andsearches when necessary.

There were 12 undocumented

personsarrested fornot possessingavalid passport or permit.

Speaking to Maritzburg Fever,some officers claimed that there aremanyillegalimmigrantsemployedbybusinesses in the city, thus takingemployment away from the locals.“As the operation continued, peoplein various areas started complainingabout businesses that employundocumented persons, preventingthemfromgetting jobs,” saidMaistry.

Following intelligence frommembersandthecommunity,severalbusiness premises was visited tocheck if their employees were legal.

“One business manager wasarrested and charged for employing

illegal immigrants in terms of theImmigrations Act,” he said.

The Mountain Rise police depart-ment isdedicated torootingout thosepeople who are not complying withthe law.

While the illegal immigrantsthemselves are being arrested,should theybe found tobe employed,the business manager or owner willbe arrested and charged as well.

The Immigrations Act 13 of 2002,section38, states thatnopersonshallemployan illegal foreigner, a foreign-er whose status does not authorisehim or her to be employed by suchperson or a foreigner on terms,conditions or in a capacity different

from those contemplated in suchforeigner’s status.

“Theemployermust, ingoodfaith,ascertain that no illegal foreigner isemployedbyhimorherandascertainthe status or citizenship of suchforeigner,” said Maistry.

Station commander, BrigadierFrancisBantham,commendedallthemembers for their goodwork, duringthe operation.

“I would like to send a strictwarning to all business ownersnot toemploy undocumented persons.

“The implications are serious andsuchbusinessownerswillbearrestedand charged in accordance with thelaw,” she said.

Child protection week>> Protecting children from violence, exploitation and abuse is not only a basic value, but also a Constitutional obligation

NICOLE JOHN>>nicole@pmbfever.co.za

AS South Africa celebrates theannual National Child Protec-tion Week (CPW) from 1 to 8

June, Bevan Clayton put the childrenfirst when he hosted his sixth annualHail Busters community event inGhost Town on Saturday.

CPW is commemorated to raiseawareness of the rights of children.SouthAfrican children live in a socie-ty with a Constitution that has thehighest regard for their rights.

Protecting children fromviolence,exploitation and abuse is not only abasic value, but also a Constitutionalobligation.

Clayton,togetherwithmembersofthe Saps, held the event recentlywhich highlights the importance ofchildren and their right to a crime-free life.

Speaking to Maritzburg Fever,Clayton said that the children areencouragedtowriteletterstohimandthe police about their living condi-tions and family lives. He offers a giftfor the winning letter.

According toClayton, these lettershave been the tip off the police needto make certain arrests and root outcrime.

“Thisyearthewinningletteraskedthe police and the community to lookafter the children whose parents goout drinking and leave them alone athometofendforthemselves,”hesaid.

Letters such as this one help thepolice identify certain issues that thechildreninthecommunityare facing,ones thatwouldhave otherwise goneunnoticed.

“Children innocently speak thetruth. They have helped the policearrest many people for crimeswhichthey noticed.”

This method has been successfulfor many years now and the event iswell supportedby the residents of thecommunity. Clayton praised themembers of the police who arededicated to his cause, especiallyWarrant Officer Shaun Knox,LieutenantColonelBrianOberholzer,Brigadier Derek Captain-Hastibeerand Lieutenant Jack Haskins.

Clayton, theownerofHailBusters,

runs this annual event and a soupkitchen for the people of Ghost TowneveryWednesday.Heplanstotaketheinitiative intoEastwood andSobantuto spread the help, and help othercommunities out.

“I know what it’s like not to havecertain things when others have it. Igrew upwithout havingmany thingsand now that I have, I want to shareit with those who don’t have,” said

Clayton.Approximately 300 children

MSUNDUZI municipal mayorChris Ndlela has called for athorough investigation into lastweek’s protest in Ward 28 in thenorthern suburbs.

Last week, parts of Northdalewere in a state of anarchy whenangryresidentsburnedtyresandused boulders to barricade

Regina Road next to KharinaSecondary School.

The protest is said to haveeruptedafterresidents’electrici-ty was disconnected, despiteclaims that those residents hadpaid for it.

Addressing a full councilmeetingrecently,Ndlelasaidthatthe office of the speaker is facili-tating a meeting between thedelegation of the aggrieved

parties to unpack the grievancesandtogivefinerdetailsastowhathad lead to that protest.

“There are very seriousallegations made by one of thecouncillors, which I am not in aposition to unpack, because wewant to hear the other side of thestory. Someof theallegationsaresuggesting that there may besome involvement of some of usin misleading that particular

community which lead to thedemonstrations. We want to gettothedeeprootofthecauseofthisprotest because already, thereare allegations leveled againstthe ruling party by one of thecouncillors. That councillor wasnot in aposition to giveusnamesbut we will investigate.

“If heads are to roll then wewill leadthatparticularprocess,”said Ndlela.

Msunduzi approvesR4.5 billion budget>> From July, electricity will increase by 7.39%, water by 8.7% and sanitation and refuse by 5.6%NQOBILE MTOLO>>nqobile@pmbfever.co.za

THE R4.5 billion MsunduziMunicipality budget for2014/ 2015was passed at a

recent full council meeting at theCity Hall.

Addressing full council,MsunduzimayorChrisNdlelasaidthatpoverty, inequalityandunem-ployment still affect the lives ofmany people.

“We are facing the stark realityof children living and sleeping onthe streets. Their daily challengesof being reduced to begging tomake a living are the testimony ofan unfinished job. Families wholive in shacks with no runningwater, sanitation and electricityare a reminder that the pastcontinues to haunt the present,”said Ndlela.

Tariffs and service deliveryCome the new financial year in

July, electricity will increase by

7.39%, water by 8.7% and sanita-tion and refuse by 5.6%.

“Affordability was taken intoconsideration for tariff andproperty rate increases. Tariffsneed to remain or move towardsbeing cost effective and take intoaccount the need to addressinfrastructure backlogs,” saidNdlela.

He stressed the importance ofservice delivery, saying thatMsunduzi employees need to‘shape up or ship out’.

The municipality has put asideR60million to address challengesof critical vacant posts

“We are hoping that this willcontribute immensely towardsaccelerating service delivery tothose who need it most and neediturgently.Infillingtheseposts,wewill not compromise on the issuesof skill and capacity,” said Ndlela.

InfrastructureNdlelasaidthateachyear,R120

million is lost due to electricity

theft, illegal connections andtechnical losses caused by theageing infrastructure.Hesaid thatcable theft and illegal connectionsare the biggest contributingfactorstopoweroutagesinthecity.He said that the municipality willensure that in the cold monthsahead, electricity supply remainsuninterrupted.

Opposing the budget and IDPAfter holding a five-minute

caucus following Ndlela’s budgetspeech, the Democratic Alliance(DA) councilors opposed theadoption of the budget and theIntegrated Development Plan(IDP) for 2014/ 2015.

DA spokesperson on thefinanceportfolio,DaveRyder, saidthat their major concern is thatthey have not seen the finaldocumentation to satisfy them-selves.

“We have tomake sure that weareabsolutelyhappywithwhatwe

might be approving. We areunable to support this budget andIDP on the basis that we haven’thad sufficient opportunity tothoroughly look at this documen-tation.”

NdlelasaidthattheDAreservesall the rights to support or not tosupport any motion.

“When we did a workshop onthese documents, the DA was notrepresented. We need to under-stand that when we run govern-ment, new as I am in government,wearenotheretomakeeachotherhappy. Therefore the wholequestion of absolute happiness asraisedbyRyder isneitherherenorthere. We will not be able to workif we are here to make each otherhappy. We should spell that outcategorically,” said Ndlela.

WITH the euphoria and adrenaline rush of thevoting behind South Africans, the moment ofreckoninghasdawneduponpoliticalparties toevaluate their policies in the context of theirperformance in this election.

TheANC’smajority is continuallydeclining.Theyslipped from70%(2004) to66%(2009) to63% in 2014.

The DA share of votes increased from 16%in the last election to 22%. The EconomicFreedom fighters, with Julius Malema as thecommander-in-chief, has done exceptionallywell, offering something different but appeal-ing especially to the young disillusioned voterswhoareunemployedand the landlesswantinghomes.

The challenge now lies in delivery of thesepromises. Parliament is no longer going to bea place where ministers fall off to sleep.

The EFF has probably given new life to themulti-party concept by bringing discontentedvoices into parliament and the provinciallegislature.

They carry the hopes and aspirations of ap-proximately 1.2 million voters who haveendorsed their election manifesto or partsthereof.

Theiremergenceonthereconfiguredpoliti-cal landscape is going to herald exciting timesahead.

The Nkandla debacle was not an issue forthe electorate in many provinces where theANC secured an overwhelming majority.

In Gauteng, it may have swung the voterstowards the DA. The E-Tolling systemhas alsocaused major discontent and added expensesfortheresidentsofGauteng,resultingindeclin-ing votes for the ANC.

Trying times are looming on the horizon astheANCchartersaplantoaddresstheinequali-ties facing our nation. This can be achieved ifcorruption is eliminated from the system andthe relevant personnel, with requisite skills,are placed in key areas such as finance.

In the last financialyear, theauditorgeneralstated that R170 billion was lost throughcorruption and unauthorised expenditure.

If theANC is serious about eliminating theftof taxpayers money in any form what so ever,theyneedtointroducelegislationthatwill“fire”civil servants if caught stealing.

The way forward after 2014 elections

WITH regards to the article“Customers slowly embrace paidparking” in the Maritzburg Fever

on 30 April, I have to make my point aboutchanges that have been made with theunderground parking area.

A large area has been fenced off withpalisade fencing. On inquiring with theworkers, I was told that this area is for thetenants parking - close to the entrance.

My objection to this area being used fortenantsparking is that it is soclose to the liftsand escalators, and now the shoppers haveto park further away. Surely the tenantsparking should have been placed at the farend as they are parked for most of the day?

Are the shoppers not important to themall? What about elderly people?

They now have to walk even longerdistances to their parking?

Your article states that dedicated tenantsparking facility frees up additional parkingfor shoppers. This I findhard to believewithwhat I have seen. Tenants parking is a largearea.

Large shopping malls in Gauteng put thetenants parking away from the shoppers,and do not inconvenience the shoppers bymaking them park further from the lifts andescalators.

Hopefully other shoppers will agree withme,andperhapsmallmanagementwillhavea rethink on this point.

Ann Gray

Please be assured that Liberty Midlands Mall’scentre management considers the convenience ofour shoppers very seriously and we always seeksuggestions that can improve our current offering.

Currently, the area that the tenant bays occupyis only a small percentage of the overall parkingavailable at Liberty Midlands Mall.

The tenant parking area was designed so as notto interfere with public entry into the Mall andallows easy access for shoppers to all entrancesunderground, including the elevators and liftssituated near the north, west and south entrances.

Tenants can opt, at a cost, for a pre­reservedleased parking area in the basement, an optionwhich has always been available to tenants.

However, previously, the parking bays werereserved only by a ‘reserved sign’ and it came toour attention that shoppers were occupying thesebays.

Assuch,theMalldecidedtocordonoffthesamedesignated area, which is now only more visible toshoppers and should not impose on their shoppingexperience at all.

INGXENYE yobumnandi bokubanomngani ukuthi uzinqumela wenaukuba ngumngani nomuntu othile,

njengami engazinqumela ukubawumngani noNyikinyibhoxo, umfokaNdosi.

Akufani nokuba nomzali, umfowenunoma udadewenu ngoba awuzikhethelibona.

Okumnandi kakhulu yize kuba nzimaekubeni nomngani, ukufinyelelaesinqumweni sokuphuma noma sokubu­qeda lobo bungani uma sekuqubukaizimo obona sengathi zizokufaka enkat­hazweni. Kodwa kuba nomngani omaneubone ukuthi kufanele umbekezelele no­ma ngabe kwenzekani, njengayeuNyikinyibhoxo.

OkaNdosi unomkhutshana wokuthiuma kukhona afuna ukukubhodla,eze kimina athi angimbuzele kininabafundi ukuthi nithini ngombononoma umbuzo othile anawo.

Nangophelaesefikakwaminjengoku­jwayelekile engicela ukuthi ngimbuzelekinina bafundi ukuthi nithini ngombonokamhlonishwa uMnuz Julius Malemawokuthi amalungu ePhalamendekufanele angalutholi usizo lokwelashwa(medical aid), nokuthi izingane zawozifunde ezikoleni zikaHulumeni zingayiezikoleni ezizimele (private schools), leziezidume ngelika ‘Model C’.

UMnuz Malema uthe ukholwa wuku­thi uma amalungu ePhalamende engas­ebenzisa izikhungo zempilozomphakathi, nezingane zawo ziyeezikoleni zikaHulumeni ezisetshenziswangezinye izingane, zingalungiswangokukhulu ukushesha izimo ezidalaukuthi kugcine sekukhona imibhikisho.

Angikholwa ukuthi kukhona owaziyoukuthi umfo kaNdosi uphuza kumuphiumfula kwezombusazwe nomakwezepolitiki. Nami uma ngimbuzaukuthi ungakuphi kwezepolitiki umaneathi: “Niyahlupha nina zintatheli ngobaumuntu unele abeke umbono nomaabuze okuthile, bese niyantazangemiqondo yenu ethanda ukuqhatha,nimhlanganise neqembu elithile kantiumbono wumbono nje kuphelele lapho.”

Uqhuba uthi: “Ngiyamthanda uMale­ma, noma ngingesiyena umlandeliweqembu lakhe i­Economic FreedomFighters (ECC), ngoba nabazama ukumz­iba bazogcina bemnakile. Sekwenzekalento eyashiwo wuNkk Winnie Mandelaethi ‘abaziba uMalema’ badlala ngegejakuziliwe. Futhi uma zithathelwa phezululezi ziphakamiso zokuphucwakwamalungu ePhalamende ama‘medical aid’, azoma emigqeni emideyasezibhedlela nakwezinye izikhungozezempilo zomphakathi njengathi,ingashesha intuthuko.

WHYONA SITHAPERSAD

IHAVE been livingwithmy partnerformany years, does thatmakemea common law spouse?Basically - no.There is common belief that if

people cohabitate for a long period oftimetheyenjoythesamemaritalrightsas spouses in a marriage.

In South Africa however, commonlawmarriage is not recognised - livingtogether does not equate to a defaultmarriage.

There is however a principle ofuniversal partnerships which affordsthe cohabitees to claim a share of thepropertyacquiredduring theperiodofliving together. A universal partner-ship is an express or tacit agreementbetween two parties living together toshare responsibilities and obligationsin a permanent relationship withoutever tying the knot.

This, however, does not mean thatthe parties involved enjoy automaticrights. When one of the parties

(partners) passes away without leav-ing a will, the surviving partner doesnotautomaticallybecomethebenefici-ary nor have maintenance paid tothem.

Thesurvivingpartnermustprovetothecourtthathe/shewasindeedinthisrelationship, and that he/she is owedsomething.

In two recent judgements, therequirements for a recognised part-nership were set out.

The requirements were applied inboth cases and the universal partner-ships were recognised as they eachfulfilled the following requirements:1.Each party brought something into therelationship.2.The partnership continued for their jointbenefit.3.The object of acquiring the property wasto make profit.

A written contract between theparties in a universal relationship willforce a court to recognise and enforcethe terms of the agreement therein.

A universal partnership can be

To protect each partners interests,cohabitees are advised to instruct anattorney to draft a universal partner-ship agreement, clearly enunciatingthetermsoftheagreementwhichmustencompass the following:>> Division of their property>> Duty and support to each other>>The right to share in each others propertyduring the term of the relationship>> Terms regarding termination>> The right to inherit from each other’sestate should either party die without a willin place.

Itisalsostronglyadvisedthatavalidwillbedrawnupbybothpartiestogov-ern and protect the succession of par-ties. Any children conceived in a uni-versal partnership are catered for inthe Childrens Act No 38 of 2005. Itprovides that a father of a child who isnot married to the child’s motheracquires rights and responsibilities tothat child. These include, amongstothers, maintaining contact, acting asguardian, and contributing to themaintenance of the child.

“Maha” is Sanskrit for mighty/powerfulwhilst “Dhir” refers to a wise man.

His blockbuster new show sees the“mighty” and “wise” one return to the formthat propelled him to become the mostcommercially successful Indian comedian onthe circuit.

He is brash, brazen and unapologetic,which allows him to get away with just aboutanything on stage. The ‘turbaned one’ is notafraidtopushtheboundariesandaccordingly,anyone and everything is fair game.

His trademark “f” bombs drop quick andfastfromhislipsashebouncesonandoffstage,delivering a high octane, high energy, in yourface routine that is nothing short of a comedyriot. Accordingly, the show is rated PG-18L,and Karou warns sensitive people with nopulse to stay at home.

Always adding a new dimension to hisshows, Karouhas beenhard atwork studyinghypnosis and he is going to use his new foundskills to help people kick bad habits such assmoking and biting their nails.

Music, song, dance, magic, hypnosis - anda bit of comedy. Its almost like a Bollywoodmovie - just a few hours shorter and withoutsubtitles.

TECH TALKWEARABLEdevices are rapidly becoming a hot topic in the technologyindustry.

Startingwith theGoogleGlass project,which is now in the openbetastage, taking the industry by storm. The idea appeals to a multitude ofgamers, geeks and gadget lovers, and has also had a strong corporateresponse.Samsung tookanother step forwardsome timeagowith theirGEAR watches, which could act as a second screen for your Samsungphone by displaying incoming calls, messages and notifications.

Although the GEARwatch had a rocky start due to some unforeseencompatibility issues, it has become an almost essential tool for overlyactive users.

Recently,Samsungalsoannouncedthattheyareworkingonaprojectto rival Google Glass. Samsung has been making ginormous strides inthe hardware market, and I am personally looking forward to seeingtheir new projects. With that said, it would be a shame if Samsung andGoogle took all of the spotlight. Microsoft and Apple feel the same andhavealsostartedonafewinterestinghardwareprojects.Appleispoisedto announce their first iWatch later this year, whilst Microsoft havesecretly been working on their own fitness based smart watch since2012.TheMicrosoftWatchwill beable to tie inwithAndroid,AppleandMicrosoft phones, giving them a massive compatibility boost over theother players.

It’s going to be an interesting year in terms of hardware, and we’reso excited!

LanceVeenstraapproachedmeatthe end of 2011 and asked if Iwould be interested in starting aninitiativewherebywewouldintro-duce the Grade one’s and two’s atCordwalles to rugby as a wholeand develop their basic skills sothat when they started formalrugby in Grade three, they wouldalready be familiar with theconcept of rugby.

“Through Cordwalles’ alreadystrong outreach link withAshdown School, it seemed anatural progression to getinvolved with them and see if wecould not help expose some of theboys at Ashdown to rugby.”

These are the heart-warmingwords of Cordwalles teacher andcoach Rory Bremner, the formerMaritzburg College and PMBVarsity first XV scrumhalf.

The Rugby Cubs initiative ispart of Cordies’ (as the school isfondly known) outreach relation-ship with Ashdown Primary,which is in operation on manylevels - academic, cultural andother.

Once training is done, the boysare transported back to Ashdownin the Cordies bus.

“Our main outcome that wehope to achieve is the opportunityto expose young boys to thewonderful game of rugby whenordinarily, they probably wouldhave never had the chance toexperience it,” said recentlyqualified teacher Bremner.

“Itisafun,safeenvironmentforthem and something differentfrom their normal daily routineand at a young age we are able toidentify those with potential andhelp to develop them further.”
