The installation of gym equipment hasimproved the attractiveness of a localpark in Claremont.

The City has installed three pieces ofequipment to the value of R32 450.“It was requested by the ward councillor

for the area and funded through his ward al-location funding,” says Belinda Walker,mayoral committee member for communityservices and special projects. She says thatthe equipment is well-used by visitors.Broken bottles, human faeces, old mat-

tresses and vagrants used to turn residentsaway from the park, as People’s Post previ-ously reported (“Certainly no walk in thepark”, 19 December 2014).At the time Abdul Kerbelker, executive

manager of the Claremont Central Improve-ment District (CID), said by nature publicspaces belong to the public, but it is the re-sponsibility of the community to ensure thatthe park is well kept.“Residents should not point a finger at the

City for not doing enough, if they themselvesare not doing anything to improve the situa-tion,” he said.“Many homeless people have nowhere to

go, therefore the park and public spaces givethemasenseof belonging.Wecansimplynotjust have them ‘removed’. We have to worktogether to find a solution and not just pointfingers at one another,” he said.The CID has staff that do regular visits to

the park. They report any anti-social behav-iour that is noticed in the park, saysWalker.“The City has also employed expanded

public works programme workers to do

clean-ups and minor horticultural mainte-nance on a weekly basis. This has contribut-ed greatly to the reductionof vagrancy in thepark,” she says.A resident and chairperson of the Friends

of Bishoplea Park, Christopher da Silva, toldPeople’s Post last year that the parkwas “cer-tainly not the place mothers with childrenwould feel safe to enter”.“We are looking for ways in which we can

make the park a safer place for everyone.Locking up the park will not stop anyonefrom gaining access, as it is easy to jumpover the fence,” he said.Da Silva said turning the park into a tech-

no facility with free Wi-Fi for all, vandal-proof power points for mobile devices willadd to the value of the park and keep peoplecoming backwhichwill ensure that the parkis busy with people.

“We will continue to research similar ex-amples in Europe and Asia and then adaptideas for what suits us best. This cannot beconsidered a park that just caters for localresidents. This park is also frequented byworkers in both the surrounding residentialarea and theClaremont CBD,”Da Silva said.Walker says the park is locked by a securi-

ty company in the evening and unlocked bythem in the morning.“We could not find any record of vandal-

ismof the equipment.Onlynormalwear andtear has occurred,” she says.Asked if the City plans on installing gym

equipment in other parks in the areaWalkersays that there are no plans yet, “but discus-sionswill be held byCity parkswith the rele-vant councillors to install more of this typeof equipment as it is being well used by thecommunity”.

LIBRARY HALL

Shh . . . no wedding allowedMONIQUE DUVAL

@monique_duval

Literary teas, community-basedactivities and other events are of-ten held in library halls.

But due to inconsistency in whichevents are permitted in these halls,the City of Cape Town has proposed anew draft policy.The draft Library Hall Usage Policy

is currently open for public participa-tion and Capetonians are being en-couraged to have their say.

UseAccording to the policy these halls areprimarily for activities organised bylibrary staff.However, they are also rented to the

public or made available free ofcharge. In addition, businesses areable to hire hall facilities for a fee.Belinda Walker, City mayoral com-

mittee member for community servi-ces and special projects, says somehalls are used more than others andthis is dependent on various factors.“OurCentral,Milnerton,Bellville andSomerset West library halls are someof the most well-used facilities.”

ProblemThe policy proposal describes how thecurrent lack of a policy is the maincontributor to inconsistent decision-making and disagreements with indi-viduals and groups wishing to makeuse of the halls.“In addition, this lack of clear policy

directive results in halls not being op-timally used or managed,” it reads.Walker says many of these prob-

lems stem fromthe timewhen individ-ual municipalities had their own

rules and regulationswhich governedthe use of library halls.“This policy will ensure that there

is a consistent approach to the hiringout of library halls,” she explains.

ActivitiesWalker sayswhile the halls are prima-rily for library activities, they may beused for other purposes, except for so-cial, religious or political purposes.She explains the primarypurpose of

these halls is to host community-based activities and programmes thatcomplement the services offered by

the library. “For example, many hallsare used as training venues and sup-port the library’s goal of encouraginglifelong learning. The library and in-formation services department wouldlike to prioritise this kind of use.”She further explains these halls are

often linked to and accessed throughthe library and are not designed forlarge gatherings or events such asweddings.“A library is a space that is there for

everyone, regardless of race, creed orreligious or political affiliation andwe would like to ensure that it is as

inclusive a space as possible,” sheadds.

TariffThe policy also stipulates strict guide-lines regarding payment for the use ofthese halls.Community organisations and indi-

viduals using the hall for communityor cultural events will be allowed touse it for free. In addition, councillorsmay use the halls twice per month forfree for feedback meetings.However, use of the hall must be

paid for when used for business orcommercial purposes. A tariff is alsocharged when a non-profit organisa-tion charges the public to attend theirevent in a hall.Walker says the price will depend

on the annual tariff structure.“When applying for the use of the li-

brary hall, the organisation has tostate the purpose of use. Based on this,the hiring of the hall would either betariff-based or deemed a communityorganisation use and therefore freeusage would apply.”

CommentThe draft policy is open for commentsuntil Thursday 30 April. Walker ex-plains after this date the departmentwill consider each of the comments re-ceived and amend the policy accord-ingly.“The amended policy is then sub-

mitted to the community servicesportfolio committee and then recom-mended to the mayor and onward tocouncil,” she says.V The draft policy is available at libraries andon www.capetown.gov.za. To comment, [email protected] or fax086 576 1398.

Slave Route Challenge spokesper-son, they are expecting more than8500 participants fromall over SouthAfrica.She says the race beneficiary this

year is the District Six Museum.Mohamed Kajee, president of the

Lion of Africa Insurance IthekoSport AC and organisers of theevent, says it is a run down memory

lane as the race route takes youthrough historical sites in CapeTown.“We honour, pay tribute and cele-

brate the accomplishments and richheritage of slaves and exiles, despitethe challenges they faced,” says Ka-jee.“We strive to make this the best

race there is.”Allie says each participant will re-

ceive a commemorative medal and afree koeksister or two or three onKoeksister Hill.She believes all the participants at

last year’s event said the event wasfun andwell-organised and that theywould be back this year.

“I did the 10km run and then the10kmwalkwithmy daughter, Court-ney. We enjoyed it so much, evenKoeksisterHill. She loved theBo-Ka-ap, as she has never been there be-fore. The Hill was a killer, but a joyand completely worthwhile,” saysYolanda Dell.Another participant,NaseemaAp-

pleby, says: “I had an awesome time.You did a great job – controlling thetraffic, marshals, water . . . every-thing! Awell-planned event indeed.”Those interested can enter online

your body from absorbing fat from the food that you eat. These two products can be used in two ways:

Research has shown that if these two products are taken with

the Turbo Trim weight Loss Program, they will almost double the rate at which you lose weight because

even if you are sticking to a healthy way of eating, there are still a certain amount of fat and carbohydrate

in the food that you eat, so taking the Fat-Stop and Carbo-Stop will ensure that you absorb even less from

your food and lose even faster. We all know that even with the best

intentions, most people are likely to have periods when they go overboard and eat food that is too high in

fats or carbohydrates. All you do is take a few extra Fat-Stop and/or Carbo-Stop before eating pizza,

chocolates or going to a party and you can get away with 'cheating' and not pick up weight. These two

products are your 'insurance program' to ensure that you never pick up weight ever again!!

INTERNET DATING

Grannies duped by‘boyfriend’ scamMONIQUE DUVAL

@monique_duval

Policehave issueda sternwarningaftertwo elderly women from Diep Riverwere duped by an internet scam.

According to a report fromDiepRiver po-lice, the two women were conned into be-lieving handsome rich men from the UKwere on their way to meet with them.Police spokesperson Warrant Officer

Keith Chandler says in both cases thewom-en met the men on the internet.“The men are young and send fake pic-

tures of themselves. They claim to be mil-lionaires living in the UK and also claim tohave fallen in love with the elderly wom-en,” he explains.Chandler says the men claim to be so in

love they want to come to South Africa tomeet with the women but allege their bankaccounts are frozen.“They send fake bank accounts to make

the story more believable. In both of thesecases the women then agreed to pay fortheir plane tickets. The money is deposited

into a Capitec account and the men neverarrive,” he says.In one of the two cases an elderly woman

forked out more than R12 000 for her “boy-friend”.Chandler says a similar case involving a

49-year-old woman has also been reportedat the station.“In these cases, the complainants want to

open fraud cases but cannot do so becausethe money was not taken illegally. Theygave it voluntarily,” he says.Associated Seniors coordinator Ursula

Schenker says the scamming of pensionersis a concern. She believes they are targetedby thieves because they are vulnerable.“Many elderly people are using the inter-net. When someone has lost a spouse theyare often lonely and this is a difficult timefor them,” she says.Schenker has appealed to residents who

have elderly loved ones to keep a close eyeon their online activities.“Even this can be a difficult situation as

elderly folk don’t want their childrenchecking up on them,” she adds.

Unknown body found next to M3The body of aman foundnext to theM3 free-way in Constantia has not been identified.Diep River police spokesperson Warrant

Officer Keith Chandler says the body wasdiscovered after a woman travelling on thefreeway reported that she had felt a thudagainst the side of her car at 06:00 onWednesday last week.

Chandler says later during the day thebody of a unidentified man, possibly a va-grant, was discovered with internal inju-ries.Anyone with information on the incident

or the victim’s identity is urged to phoneDetective Sergeant Chris Roman on021 710 7347/9.

Robbers prowl in white taxiMONIQUE DUVAL

@monique_duval

Police in the southern suburbs haveappealed to residents to watch out fortaxis seen outside normal taxi routes.

This follows several robbery cases inwhich victims have been held up at knife-point by two men in a white taxi.In the most recent case a 20-year-old stu-

dent was robbed on the corners of Melvilleand Garden streets on Monday last week atabout 13:10. Diep River police spokespersonWarrant Officer Keith Chandler says one ofthe men jumped out of the taxi and held thestudent at knifepoint, demanding he handover his valuables.

Chandler confirms therehavebeen similarreports in Claremont, Wynberg, Mowbrayand Rondebosch.“We strongly advise residents to be on the

lookout for taxis driving through residentialareas and off their routes,” he says.Wynberg police spokesperson Warrant Of-

ficer SilvinoDavids confirms the cases in theWynberg police precinct, which includesparts of Constantia and Kenilworth.He explains in the first case, two men

robbed the complainant and in the secondcase a man and a woman were the robbers.“Both reports indicate a white Toyota taxi

but it is not known which model. These rob-beries occur mostly after the peak hours andin side roads off Main Road,” he says.

Old school spinfeeds local kidsThree DJs are putting their talents to

work in an effort to bring relief to chil-dren in what they believe are often

“marginalised” communities.The DJs all hail from Grassy Park and

have established the organisation DeeJaysUnite.Quinton Lodewyk, Derick Brock and

Richard Abrahams aim to raise funds byhosting events such as old school functions.The proceeds from these events are thenused to assist local communities.Mark Rossouw says the DJs use their col-

lective talents to host fundraising events.“The funds raised at the events are then

employed to bring relief in the form of feed-ing initiatives and relief aid,” he says.Rossouw says the first such benefit gig

was held in Retreat in February.The group also hosted an event for chil-

dren on Saturday 4 April.The event, which was named Feeding a

hungry child, was a joint venture with theWynberg police.“The beneficiaries were about 150 chil-

dren from theHillview informal settlementin Lavender Hill, the Knowles informal set-tlement in Ottery and Bonny Town inWyn-berg,” he says.Rossouw says the childrenwere collected

from their respective communities by bus.“The children were entertained, which

included a play, face painting, five-a-sidefootball, jumping castles and a stellar per-formance by a breakdance group,” he says.The children were also given breakfast,

lunch and a snack pack.“The groupwould like to convey its grati-

tude to the A-Team support group, pastorNick Chadwick, Wynberg police station,donors and all who support the fundraisingevents,” he says.

Rossouw says the DJs believe that aproject like this benefits the children in thecommunity because they are exposed tosomething new.“The children benefit by being treated

and cared for by this group. It gives thema sense of belonging and lets them feel thatthey are not forgotten,” he says.Rossouw says the aim of the group is to

make a difference in the lives of the chil-dren, even if small.The next event is a blanket drive on

Thursday 30 April.Anyone who is interested and would like

to get involved can contact Quinton Lode-wyk on 081 366 4376 or his wife Karen on083 252 4085.

Small donations can go along way at Philippi centreTables and chairs make life a little easierfor the owner and pupils at an educarecentre in Philippi.

This was made possible through a gen-erous donation by the Rotary Club ofNewlands.

Bill Meyer from the Rotary Club saysthe club identified the need to make prin-cipal Bonisa Ntsile’s daily tasks a biteasier by donating tables and chairs forthe children to sit at while learning theirlessons.

Bonisa Educare Centre is situated inLower Cross Roads, Philippi.

“In an area where unemployment ishigh, the school fees paid don’t stretch tocover all the running costs of the centre.”says Meyer. Now the much-needed fund-ing can rather be spent on running costs,teachers’ salaries and food.

Phillipi resident Ntsile says the centrecares for children whose parents areworking and do no have the means to carefor them during the day while they arenot at home.

“At the same time the children get agood start on their road to education,”she says.

Six years ago, Ntsile set out to fulfil herdream of running an educare centre inher community with the dream of creat-ing a safe environment for youngsters.

And a year later she was caring forabout 40 children.

“We started in a shack next to my housewith 14 children,” Ntsile recalls. “By theend of that year, we had grown to triplethat number, so it was time to move tonew premises.”

Today the Bonisa Educare Centre con-sists of two classrooms, a nursery and a

kitchen and caters for over 80 children.“We are incredibly grateful for the gen-

erosity of the Rotary Club of Newlands,not only for the donation but for the factthat people do care about this little educa-re centre in Cape Town.

“This is a place where giving a littlemeans a lot,” Ntsile says.

Meanwhile, five of the centre’s helpersattend college one day a week each, study-ing for a qualification in early childhooddevelopment.

Meyer says the centre is in the processof becoming a registered educare centre,but until such time, every rand needs tobe stretched as far as possible.

Campground Road, Newlands.The incident occurred onSunday 12April

at about 23:50.Captain Angie Latchman, spokesperson

of the Claremont police cluster, confirmsthat the suspects had robbed two residentsas they were walking along the road.“As the victims were walking, a car

stoppednext to themand one of the suspectsapproached them with a gun and orderedthem into the car,” she says.Latchman says it was reported that a

woman was driving the car. The suspectssearched the victims. The suspects appar-ently took the victims’ wallets, a watch andcellphones. They threatened to shoot themand demanded their bank PIN numbers.They were eventually released in New-

lands Avenue where they flagged down apassing car and used their phones to call

their parents.One of the victim’s mothers tracked her

son’s cellphone and informed officers of theroute the car was taking.The car stopped at a fast food outlet in

Mitchell’s Plain, where theMitchell’s Plainpolice apprehended the three suspects.“The suspects were driving in a white

Chevy Optra when police arrested them.During the arrest, officers recovered twoiPhones, one Fossil watch, bank cards andstudent identity cards,” Latchman says.The suspects all made a court appearance

at theWynbergMagistrate’s Court on Tues-day last week on charges of armed robbery.They have been remanded in custody untiltheir next appearance, scheduled for Tues-day 12 May.Latchman says similar incidents have

been reported to the police and as part ofthe investigation detectives will try to es-tablish if the suspects are involved in othercases.

Two students from Claremont were held up and robbed at gunpoint. Mitchell’s Plain policearrested three suspects after they were tracked through one of the student’s stolen cellphone.

‘Chef’ wields gun in storeAman armed with a gun and dressed ina chef’s uniform robbed a jewellery storein Kenilworth last week.The incident occurred on Friday 10

April at 18:15.Captain Angie Latchman, spokesper-

son of the Claremont police cluster, saysit is alleged that an unknown manentered a jewellery store at KenilworthShopping Centre.“The suspect held up the staff at gun-

point and robbed the store of a largeamount of jewellery. The suspect wasvery specific as to which cabinet he re-quired jewellery from,” Latchman says.No shots were fired and no one was in-

jured.Latchman says the suspect fled from

the scene in an unknown direction. Noarrests have yet been made.

Keep your business secureLatchman provides business owners

with some advice on how to preventbusiness robberies and how to handlecash on business premises.“Keep cash on hand to aminimumand

do not exceed certain amounts of cash attill points. Remove excess cash from reg-isters and secure this cash in a safe,which is not accessible to the public. En-sure that banking is done regularly andavoid keeping large amounts of cash onthe premises. Vary your banking timesso that you do not set a pattern whichis easily noticeable,” she says.

She also advises business owners tohave controlled entrances and to ensurethat premises are not overcrowded.If you have a firearm, ensure that it is

secured in a safe on the premises.Ensure that you have proper security

gates installed.“We would also like to urge business

owners to be alert during opening andclosing times and towork in pairs to pre-vent being overpowered or surprised,”she says.Business owners are also asked to

keep a visible list of emergency numberson hand. Staff must be made aware ofthese emergency numbers and where tofind them if an incident occurs.Latchman urges that business owners

invest in a panic button, preferably oneto be worn on the body.“We urge staff to always check the

identity of people who visit your storefor deliveries or other business reasons.Verify andkeep staff aware of allmainte-nance being done and insist on verifica-tion of persons who may need access tothe premises,” she says.Latchman says in the event a robbery

has occurred staff and business ownersare asked to contact the police immedi-ately.“Move everyone outside the premises

to avoid contamination of the crimescene and do not allow any entrance intothe premises until the police arrive,” sheadvises.

Call in the troopsMarches are desperate but a uselessway to combat crime and xenopho-bia. The army should be called into assist our embattled police forceto put an end to the violence that isgripping our country and makingus look like a lost cause in the eyesof the rest of Africa and the worldmedia.

DR E. RAPITI,Email

What message are we sending our children, whenthe top cop in the province is suspended aftercharges of corruption are levelled at him?

Western Cape police commissioner Arno Lamoer andthree senior officers have been suspended and face 109counts, including corruption, money laundering andracketeering, with a Cape businessman.These are officers who, filling the highest policing po-sition in the province, should be beyond reproach – tothe extent that a parking ticket could not be held to theirnames.Yet daily we are faced with stories about police offi-cers flouting the law – The very men and women whoare meant to protect us committing crimes and endan-gering others. What happened to the days when becom-ing a police officer was an honour, a calling for only thebravest and most trustworthy?Perhaps it has seeped in from our society, wherebreaking the law is so widespread it has become thenorm.How often do we think nothing of jaywalking, drivingafter drinking or keeping money found on the street?We turn a blind eye to drug dealing and gangsterism,quick to pull our curtains closed or avert our faces.We should not only hold our police officers account-able, reporting their failures to uphold the law, but alsoour community members, friends and family.We can only partially blame an officer for acceptinga bribe when we are at fault for putting the temptationin front of himorher.Weneed to start building a cultureof law-abiding citizenship in our homes. If each childis raised to do the right thing, we will have created notonly a generation of dependable police officers, but alsomembers of public who will hold them accountable.The fight against corruption lies with each and everoneofus.Not only shouldwehold corrupt police officersaccountable,we should also ensure thatwedonot createan environment in which corruption is possible.

EDITORIAL COMMENT

No ‘top’ cop

Your SMSesGeneral. South Africans, be peaceful with eachother and have respect for one anotherno matter the race or color. Love eachother. May He bless us as a nation,becasue without respect we have nothing.Let’s start practising this, to love ourfellow Africans.We are all people created by God, so loveone another.. People are leaving the country not only

in fear of their safety, but also due topolice ignorance. What happened to“serve and protect”?. The person who supplies the weapon isregarded as an accomplice to the crime.Why can’t the same apply to a personwho supplies drugs? Criminals pleadthey were under the influence of drugs,but the supplier never has a day incourt..We are not safe anywhere, gangs arekeeping the community hostage. We doeverything we can to be safe, but if acoward gangster wants something,nothing’s going to stop him.

LIVE MUSIC

Take us as we come, says trioLOUISA STEYL@LouNotes

They describe themselves as an acous-tic/ folk-rock trio, but this weekend,Hatchetman will be opening the Big

BluesMeets Rock Festival at Hillcrest Quar-ry in Durbanville.The band, who hails fromMilnerton, Ron-

debosch and the City Bowl, will be joiningVan Coke Kartel, The Black Cat Bones, Peb-bleman with Jesse Jordan, The Albert FrostTrio, Gerald Clark & the Deadmen, Boule-vardBlues andTheMojoHeads andAzurdeeand the Blue River Band for the festival onSunday.

Class on one bill“I think it’s a wonderful concept,” the

band’s Jono Tait says of the idea of bringingblues and rock together on one stage.“In my mind, the line between traditional

blues and rock is blurry enough for the twoto make great partners.”He says the festival provides a space for

the “grey areas between rock and blues tocome to the fore” and flourish.“It’s just beyond cool that there’s a festival

that’s featuring pretty much everythingthat’s class about the SA blues and rockscene on one bill.”Jono is responsible for song writing, gui-

tar playing and lead vocals for Hatchetman,but quickly points out that the band’s vocalsound is geared towards a three-part harmo-ny, so he isn’t really the band’s lead vocalist.Instead he shares harmonies with Matt andNick Catto.The three recently recorded a live show at

Alma Café, a venue in Rosebank that Jonohas been helping manage for the last year

since taking over from his parents, whobuilt it up. He is also involved with the Bar-leycorn Folk Music Club who recently cele-brated its 40th anniversary.

Recording plans“The Alma recording was very much an

experiment,” he says.Although he hasn’t had a chance to listen

to the playbacks yet, Jono says the albumwill be “bare bones” with very little over-

dubs. In fact, theymight even decide to leavesome of the “wrong” notes in.“I’ve always felt very strongly that it’s im-

portant for a band to be totally transparentabout the live experience,” Jono explains,adding: “I mean, it’s three guys, trying tosing three different notes at the exact sametime and in the right register of your voiceand maybe you’re nervous and a whole raftof other considerations. And it’s live, so ob-viously there’s gonna be some bum notes,

y’know?”Originally the band just wanted a profes-

sional live recording of a show to see whatcame out, but they ended up with some“great-sounding” tracks and are consider-ing releasing them as an EP of sorts.Hatchetman have also been talking about

releasing a full album in the “not-too-distantfuture” and although the band is primarilyan acoustic guitar act, Jono says they are ex-perimenting with different instruments andincorporating electric influences.“I’ve always wanted to play in a straight

up and down hard rock band so that’s kindabubbling away in the background some-where,” he says.

Off to FringeBesides being booked every night for ev-

ery weekend in April, Hatchetman are alsogoing to be recording a single with Pierre-Arnold Theron from Mr Cat and the Jackalinbetweenmixing their live tracks and look-ing into pre-production options for their al-bum.Theyhave been accepted as one of theGra-

hamstown National Fringe Fest music acts,but before that they need to get their socialmedia platforms, website and merchandiseset up properly.“A lot of stuff needs to come together so

that we can really take Grahamstown bystorm,” Jono says, but he’s enjoying beingpart of the business side of things.It will be all music when the band gets on

stage at the Blues Meets Rock Festival onSunday though. Tickets for the 10-hour con-cert cost R150 and are available at Compu-ticket.V Visit www.facebook.com/hatchetmanband to stayup to date with the band’s news and shows.

Hockey Federation’s Ice Hockey WorldChampionship (Division II –GroupB)whichtook place at the Ice Station at GrandWestCasino and Entertainment World last week.Unfortunately, the Rhinos could only

manage to win one out of five matches and
