CRIME: COPS ‘CAN’T SEARCH EVERY PERSON’
Service delivery letdownASTRID FEBRUARIE
@FebAstrid
Improving on service delivery and aclampdown on crime are among the chiefobjectives for the Claremont Community
Police Cluster.These issues were discussed at a general
meeting on Tuesday 15 July.Themeetingwas attended by residents, as
well as the local police fromMowbray,Clare-mont and Rondebosch police stations.Claremont cluster commanderColonel Jo-
hann Ellmann says service delivery at thepolice station requires a revamp to ensurethat feedback is given to people who havebeen affected by crime regularly as well asto ensure that police officers and detectivesfollow up on investigations.“If we find that officers are not following
up on cases or giving feedback when theyare required towewill act on it immediatelyand a disciplinary hearing will be held,” hesays.Ellmann says one of the reasons why
crime is on a high is due to the fact that po-tential suspects are free to roam the streetsin any community.“Our hands are tied as we cannot random-
ly stop and search people. We need to haveprobable cause before we can stop someoneand search them or look through their be-longings on their person,” he says.Ellmann says many of the crimes take
place during the day when residents are atwork.“Criminals have the opportunity to ob-
serve residents’ behaviour and patterns andonce they have that figured out they pounceon the opportunity.Ellmann says during winter nights crimi-
nals take advantage of the weather.“They know residents are not likely to
come out of their homes when it is raining.This makes it easier for them to break in tocars and to escape into the night. It is there-fore important to be alert at all times,” cau-
tions Ellmann.He says police have however picked up
that many criminals wear a certain brandof clothing when committing a crime.He has therefore advised their officers to
visit the holding cells at the three differentpolice stations and to take note of the sus-pects as some of themmay be linked to othercrimes,” he says.Ellmann says sometimes the facial fea-
tures of a suspect is not enough to identifythem, but if the public or residents can de-scribe their clothing, police may find a con-nection. “Sometimes criminals wear thesame name brand clothing when commit-ting a crime,” he saysEllmann says this is something unique to
that individual. If an officer has this onrecord it would be easier for them to find alink to the person who may have been in-
volved in a similar crime wearing the sameclothes. “It is vital that they note everythingabout the suspects in the cells for future ref-erence,” Ellmann adds.Residents are advised to report suspicious
behaviourorpeople to thepolice. “If theyarenot happy with the response they are wel-come to contact or visit the police stationand demand to speak to a senior police offic-er who can take the matter forward.”
LITTLE BIT OF HEAVEN: Staff members of Chevron were out in full force on Monday at the Heaven’s Nest care home for children in need aspart of their week of caring leading up to International Mandela Day tomorrow. Eleanor Bester, the project manager of Heaven’s Nest, saysit welcomes the interest of Chevron at the home. “We hope this iniative becomes a longstanding partnership with Chevron and the home.

CHARITY: URGED TO GIVE NOT JUST ‘A BLANKET’
Aid to ward off more than chillASTRID FEBRUARIE
@FebAstrid
Help get the homeless through winterwith U-Turn’s new winter campaignwhich seeks to “Givemore thanablan-
ket, I want a life change”.The aim of the campaign is to raise sup-
port for those coming off the street.The web-based campaign was officially
launched in the begining of this month.Sam Vos, director of U-Turn, is asking
people to consider sponsoring homelesspeople on their Life Change programme.The programme is a work-based therapy
initiative which allows those coming off thestreet the chance to develop through profes-sional work experience and carefully de-signed rehabilitation sessions.“The fierce Cape winter has come with a
biting wind and buckets of rain and it is atragedy that people are living outside insuch deadly conditions,” says Vos.“The cold softens our hearts towards the
homeless and compels us to do ‘something’to help.”Vos says the easy answer is blankets.
While the shelter of a blanket gives warmthfor the night, whynot givewarmth for a life-time? he asks.“Imagine you were the one that finds
yourself on the street. Regardless of whatbrought you there, wouldn’t you want helpto get off the street [and] not just [be] handeda blanket?” Vos challenges.Although his statement may arouse some
anger Vos feels it too because, he adds, “itwill always be easier, cheaper and feel bet-
ter to just give a blanket and call it [being]good”.“We are saying, don’t stop there, give
something that last a life time. Help peoplemove off the streets [and] not just be warmwhile they are there. This campaign is try-ing to give the community a tangible wayto give something that lasts,” he explains.Vos explains that U-Turn has been work-
ing on a solution to homelessness for 17years.“There are many steps to the process, but
the heart of the change is in the Life Changeprogramme,” he says.This is a six-month to three-year pro-
gramme which offers sheltered employ-ment in one of their social enterprises, theU-Turn Charity Stores.He further says this “real” work experi-
ence in retail is the platform their occupa-tional therapist uses to direct personalgrowth.Participants also receive indepth train-
ing in life skills (like money management,or how to handle conflict), IT skills and one-on-one assistance from the occupationaltherapists for their individual needs.“The cost of running the programme is
high, but we will cover the whole of thiscost, if the sponsorwill cover the take-homestipend (used for food, accommodation andtransport) that is paid to every participant,”Vos says.The stipend is R2100 amonth for one year,
and will act as the salary participants earnwhile receiving real help on the pro-gramme.“Although people join at different points
of the year,” he says, “we aim to enrol eachperson a minimum of six months, but arefinding, much like a college education, thelonger the participant is involved the great-er level of development.”Vos says the support from the public is vi-
tal as they are dealing with people’s lives.“How society handles those in need is so
crucial. It is important that we act in waysthat truly bring about change. We want tooffer people a concrete way of getting in-volved in this change,” he adds.There are three ways to respond to this
campaign.The first step is to signup to become aLife
Change sponsor.If people choose not to sign up they are
asked to consider giving a one-off donationtowards the programme.The third step is to help spread the mes-
sage of how to help the homeless construc-tively to family and friends.There are currently 15 full-time rehabili-
tation positions on the Life Change Pro-gram.Vos says to date there are four members
who are being sponsored.“People are always welcome to visit our
U-Turn Stores and engagewith those peoplewho are on the programme as they find itexciting and encouraging to hear the testi-monies of those making change in theirlives.“But we will use confidentiality when it
comes to your sponsorship,” he adds.V For more information about how you can assist visitwww.homeless.org.za. Or call Vos at UTurn at(021) 674 0400.

RAIL: SIGNAL MASTS PROPOSED TO SMOOTH SERVICE
Prasa’s trainplan on trackMONIQUE DUVAL
@monique_duval
There are just eight more days forsouthern suburbs residents to havetheir say on a new project by the Pas-
senger Rail Agency of SouthAfrica (Prasa).Plans to improve the management of
trains has seen Prasa apply to the nationalDepartment of Environmental Affairs toerect signalling masts in rail servitudes at21 stations across Cape Town.According to the background document
by environmental consultants Envirow-orks the masts are aimed at managingtrains and traffic on railway lines.Three masts are proposed for the south-
ern suburbs. According to the report, theywill be situated at Claremont, Wittebomeand Heathfield train stations. They are setto be 30m high.However, the two proposed masts in St
James and Clovelly stations are set to be15m tall.In addition, antennas will be attached to
these masts.According to the report therewill be addi-
tional equipment which will be housed bycontainers.“Electricity supply and access roads to
the different sites already exist. The struc-ture will cover a total area of about 80m²and will be enclosed by a palisade fencewith a height of 2.4m,” the report reads.For these proposed masts an environ-
mental basic assessment process is re-
quired under the National EnvironmentalManagement Act (Nema).“The main objective of a basic assess-
ment is to ascertain the impacts of a pro-posed development on the affected environ-ment and to establish if identified impactscan be effectively mitigated or reduced,” itcontinues.Residents are now required to register as
an interested and affected party to be keptup to date with the project information.Under Nema, Prasa has also applied for
an exemption from publishing notices, thefinal decision and appeal details in newspa-pers.Wittebome resident and commuter Jean-
ette Stoffels says she found a pamphlet inher letter box notifying her of the plans formasts.She says notifications and information
have beenmade available atWittebome sta-tion but says she is not keen on the propos-al.“There is no information about the ef-
fects on people and the environment. Wehave no idea of how this will improve thetrain service and we need more informa-tion,” she says.Stoffels saysmany residents will register
as affected parties to source more informa-tion.Prasa and Metrorail were unable to an-
swer additional questions about the mastsat the time of going to print.V Share your thoughts. Starting with the word “Post”,SMS your thoughts to 32516. SMSes cost R1.

FAKE DEATHS: EMPLOYERS CONNED TO PAY UP
Duped by‘funeral’ costsASTRID FEBRUARIE
@FebAstrid
ARondebosch residenthasbeenconnedout of R3500 under the ruse that hisdomestic worker has died, while an-
other has received calls from a unknownman claiming to know her “deceased” do-mestic worker.In the most recent incident Shirley Al-
dum, manager of Rondebosch CommunityImprovementDistrict says a resident calledher onSaturday 12 July to report that amantried to con her out of her money afterclaiming that her domestic worker died.Aldumsays the resident told theman that
she did not believe him and put down thephone. He immediately called her back andbecame aggressive trying to convince herthat it was a real call.“I suggested to her that she does not en-
gage in any conversation with him, shouldhe call her again,” she says.She further advised the woman to appeal
to her domestic worker not to give any per-sonal details to anyone and to request theircontact details to return the call.Aldum says this is a cruel scam that is
pulling on peoples’ heart strings. “It can beextremely traumatic for a family to heartheir domestic worker has died in a horri-ble accident, only for them to appear atwork the next day,” she says.She advises residentwith domesticwork-
ers to ensure they have all their details andthose of their next- of-kin.“Theywill thenknow if someone is trying
to con them if they receive a call to informthem they need to make a financial contri-
bution to their domestic worker’s funeral,”Aldum says.Warrant officer Lyndon Sisam, spokes-
person for Rondebosch police advised resi-dents to get to know as much as possibleabout their domestic workers’ next-of-kinand request contact numbers.He adds some con artists pretend to be
government officials, SARS representa-tives, retail store and bank representatives.During another incident which occurred
on Sunday 6 July at 08:00 an unknown per-son called a resident claiming they needmoney to inform the family back home ofthe domestic worker’s death and to arrangefor a funeral.Sisam says the caller informed (the resi-
dent) to deposit R3500 at a national chain-store. The distraught complainant deposit-ed the funds, but on Monday 7 July the do-mestic worker reported for work as usualand was totally oblivious about the caller.
“When confronted with such a scam weadvise the employer to confirm the deathwith a family member or request a deathcertificate as proof,” Sisam adds.Jonathan Hobday, chairperson of the
Mowbray Community Policing Forum,says this is an old scam.“The scam catches people off guard and
they sympathise with the caller and give into the scam,” he says, adding people are gul-lible and fall for it.“My advice iswhen you receive a call like
that brush it off, but make sure to checkwith your domestic worker that she is aliveandwell. It could be true that your domesticworker may have been seriously hurt ormayhavedied, butdonot fall for this scam.”

Brady braces forthe world stageLIAM MOSES
@LiamCPT
An Ottery slugger is set totest himself against theworld’s best when he rep-
resents South Africa at the 15and under Baseball World Cupnext month.Brady Conradie caught the
attention of South AfricanBaseball Union scouts whenhis heavy hitting guided theWestern Province under-15side to victory at the inter-pro-vincial tournament earlierthis year.The Plumstead High School
pupil is relishing his chance toswing at the pitching of someof the most talented players in the world.“I feel very privileged to represent SA,
but I also feel a lot of pressure because weare the first junior team to participate atthis tournament. Now we have to set an ex-ample for everyone,” he says.“We are currently ranked 31st in the
world and we would like to improve onthat.”Conradie has been a member of Thistle
Baseball Club since the age of seven.He first got involved after seeing the club
in action at its fields and was instantlyhooked when his bat’s barrel first connect-ed with the baseball.The 15-year-old started achieving soon af-
ter joining Thistle, with his first majorachievement being his inclusion in theWestern Province under-12B team in 2009.He was selected for the WP under-14A last
year and his stand-out per-formances for the Provinceunder-15 side this year led tonational selection.Last season the young pow-
er-hitter stepped up to This-tle’s first team to play in thePromotional League and hehas adjusted to the higherstandards with ease.Thistle president Garth
van Eeden says the young-ster’s desire to learn is whatsets him apart from otherplayers.“Brady is (on ahigher level
than other players in) his agegroup. There is a lot of roomfor improvement, but hishumbleness makes him bet-
ter than the rest,” Van Eeden says.“He takes the game in his stride and he
listens to the advice he is given. That’s themost important thing – to always stay hum-ble and want to learn. In my opinion he isone of the top two or three players in theSA team.“He is one of the players who stands out.
When Brady comes in, he changes a game.”Conradie hopes his game-breaking abili-
ties can assist SA at the World Cup, but hewill have to raise R20 000 to participate inthe tournament.Anyone willing to sponsor him or make
a donation can phone Glenda on073 656 0414.V The International Baseball Federation 15U WorldCup will take place in the Mexican towns of Mazatlánand Culiacan from Thursday 31 July to Sunday 10 August.
