kan nou sonder<br />

vrees gebel word<br />

’N MENS kan nou die Veiligheidspolisie bel met inlig-<br />

ting sonder om jou identiteit bekend te maak.<br />

Die Polisie het 'n telefoon-antwoorddiens by die gro-<br />

ter sentra in die land ingestel waarheen mense 24 uur<br />

per dag kan bel as hulle vertroulike inligting aan die<br />

Veiligheidspolisie wil gee.<br />

Die eksperiment is begin omdat die Polisie weet van<br />

mense wat graag inligting anoniem aan die Veiligheidspolisie<br />

wil bekend maak.<br />

So lui ’n verklaring wat gister deur die Polisie se afde-<br />

ling openbare betrekkinge in Pretoria uitgereik is.<br />

As die eksperiment slaag, sal dit later ook na ander<br />

sentra uitgebrei word.<br />

’n Beroep word op die publiek gedoen om enige inligting<br />

oor die veiligheid van die land bekend te maak. Die<br />

Polisie stel die samewerking op prys en hoop om dit met<br />

die eksperiment verder uit te brei, lui die verklaring.<br />

METROPOLITAN-LEWENS<br />

VOORKEUR-AANDEELTOEKENNINGS<br />

Onlangse persberigte het die toewysing van aandele in nuutgenoteerde<br />

maatskappye onder die soeklig geplaas. Aangesien<br />

Metropolitan-Lewens onder die mees onlangse noterings is, wil ek<br />

graag die volgende feite stel:<br />

1<br />

0 n s maatskappy se aandeeluitgifte en notering was 'n nuwe<br />

openbare uitgif en nie 'n aanbod van bestaande aandele nie.<br />

2<br />

Metropolitan-Lewens het ’n beperkte aantal aandele op ‘n voorkeurbasis<br />

aan personeel en direkteure aangebied. Soos die<br />

gebruik is, is voorkeuraanbiedinge ook aan 'n aantal meningsvormers,<br />

sakegenote en ander uitgesoekte persone gemaak. Die<br />

doel hiervan was om hulle meer bewus te maak van die maatskappy<br />

se werksaamhede en sy rol in die Suid-Afrikaanse<br />

sakelewe.<br />

3 Soos<br />

4 Soos<br />

Geen voorkeuraanbiedinge is aan enige lid van die pers gemaak nie.<br />

duidelik tydens die publikasie van die prospektus in<br />

Januarie gestel, is geen voorkeuraandeeltoewysings aan<br />

polishouers gemaak nie, vanwee die relatief klein aantal aandele<br />

wat beskikbaar was in verhouding tot die totale aantal<br />

polishouers.<br />

in die prospektus aangedui was die voorkeurtoewysing<br />

35 miljoen aandele uit 'n totaal van 15 miljoen wat uitgereik is<br />

d w.s. 23,3%. Aan geen individu is meer as 5 000 aandele op ’n<br />

voorkeurbasis aangebied nie, uitgeslote direkteure en personeel<br />

van die maatskappy en sy beherende aandeelhouer.<br />

te baan. Dit is die pers sc plig om die politicke<br />

verdeling in die land te help bceindig, want as “die<br />

pcrs nie -n verenigende. opbouende rol speel nie. is ons<br />

almal in groot moeilikheid".<br />

“Die waarheid is natuurliik dal ons reeds almal<br />

midde-in groot probleme staan, want die Nasionale<br />

Party beweeg al hoe verder weg van kompromisoplos-<br />

sings en sy onversetlikheid veroorsaak polarjsasie.<br />

“Daar is swart ekstremiste 6n wit rassiste wat dit<br />

ten doel het om die land onregeerbaar te maak. Sake<br />

het al so ver ontwikkel dat Suid-Afrikaners nog net<br />

twee politicke opsies het: hulle steun 6f magsdeling en<br />

vreedsame verandering 6f hulle sal - ongeag <strong>of</strong> hulle<br />

dit besef <strong>of</strong> nie - speel in die hande van mense wat die<br />

vermoe het om ongekende magte van dood en ver-<br />

woesting te ontketen.”<br />

Kaptein Bu<strong>the</strong>lezi het gese sy volk ken die verniete-<br />

gende gevolge van oorloe terdee. Die Zoeloes vorm<br />

nou die voorhoede van *n nuwe oorlog, ’n oorlog om<br />

vrede. Ek bid dat wit Suid-Afrikaners daaraan sal<br />

meedoen.”<br />

Hy het sy misnoee uitgespreek omdat sommige<br />

swart verslaggewers hul beroep misbruik om ’n beleid<br />

van geweld en verdeling te verkondig. “Ongelukkig<br />

moet ek erken dat ek nou ook tekens van die beleid in<br />

die sogenaamde wit pers gewaar. Dit het byderwets<br />

geword om mnr. Oliver Tambo as n heer en ’n<br />

redelike man voor te stel. Dit het mode geword om<br />

politicke plastiese chirurgie toe te pas op mense wat<br />

besluit het om ter wille van politieke doeleindes te<br />

moor."<br />

Hy het die persklub bedank vir sy verering en gese<br />

dit gee hom nuwe hoop dat sy hoe ideale inderdaad<br />

opregte ideale is. “Ek bewonder u moed, net soos ek<br />

The Financial Mail se moed bewonder het toe ek sy<br />

Man van die Jaar in 1985 was. Dit verg moed en<br />

integriteit om eerlik genoeg te wees om dinge te doen<br />

wat ongewild in die sosiale kringe van ons geknelde<br />

land is."<br />

DIE groot uittog na Mari-<br />

Die manne is reg om 'n<br />

jaar lank in die vreemde in<br />

afsondering te gaan leef en<br />

werk. Maar die keer is dit<br />

anders.<br />

Die tradisioneel manlike<br />

vesting het ook geval<br />

teen die aanslag van die<br />

<strong>vrou</strong>e. Want twee <strong>vrou</strong>e<br />

gaan vir die heel eerste<br />

keer saam op die ekspedi-<br />

sie - en nie as kokke <strong>of</strong><br />

huishoudsters nie, maar as<br />

volwaardige bioloe.<br />

Een van die <strong>vrou</strong>e is<br />

Marianne Steenkamp (26)<br />

van die Vrystaatse Univer-<br />

siteit, wat nou op ’n voor-<br />

bereidingskursus in Pretoria<br />

is. En te oordeel na<br />

haar toewyding en gees-<br />

drif, sal sy vir geen man<br />

hoef terug te staan nie.<br />

“Ek wou nog my hele<br />

lewe lank so iets d En<br />

gaan, het ek nie eens daar-<br />

oor gedink nie. Ek was<br />

selfs een keer per week<br />

Suid-Afrika toe bel. “Ons<br />

Oor klere hoef sy haar<br />

ook nie te bekommer nie.<br />

Die Departement van Ver-<br />

voer verskaf al hul klere.<br />

sy natuurlik ’n jaar se toiletware<br />

hulle mekaar ontmoet het.<br />

Maar dit is nou alles ver-<br />

sics teenoor 1984 ingctrcc.<br />

Die getal verpligte li-<br />

kwidasies het sedert 1984<br />

meer as verdubbel terwyl<br />

die getal vrywillige likwi-<br />

dasies met 40,2 persent af-<br />

geneem het.<br />

Die getal insolvensies<br />

het in 1985 met ’n skrik-<br />

wekkende 96,8 persent<br />

toegeneem terwyl dit vir<br />

die laaste kwartaal met<br />

7,1 persent gedaal het.<br />

“ Dit is skrikwekkende<br />

syfers. ’n Waardebedrag<br />

van R84 miljoen verlede<br />

jaar terwyl dit in 1984 net<br />

R37 miljoen was, dui daar-<br />

op dat dit vanjaar nog hoer<br />

kan wees as die ekonomie<br />

nie vinnig herstel nie,” het<br />

mnr. Jones gese.<br />

in 1983 was die bedrag<br />

R19,9 miljoen.<br />

Soortgelyke syfers vir<br />

1981 was RIO,8 miljoen<br />

en vir 1982 R 12,71 miljoen.<br />

Thompson in 1977 in ’n private<br />

kliniek in Zimbabwe vir sy pro-<br />

gerehabiliteer nie. ’n Maand voor<br />

die misdaad het hy gevra dat hy<br />

Birdshot used as 10 000 attend<br />

Scores injure<<br />

By Chris More and Maud Motanyane<br />

Scores <strong>of</strong> people were injured when police used teargas,<br />

sjamboks and fired birdshot as about 10 000 mourners attended<br />

a funeral <strong>of</strong> an unrest victim in Seeisoville near Kroonstad<br />

yesterday.<br />

At least 80 percent <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> residents <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> small F ree State township<br />

stayed away from work and school to attend <strong>the</strong> funeral <strong>of</strong><br />

Vincent Mntuze, a 10-year-old prim ary school pupil.<br />

M embers <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> South African Police and <strong>the</strong> local council police,<br />

travelling in about 15 vehicles, including three Casspirs, followed<br />

<strong>the</strong> m ourners to and from <strong>the</strong> graveyard.<br />

According to <strong>the</strong> <strong>of</strong>ficial 7 pm police report, “stones were thrown<br />

a t <strong>the</strong> SAP vehicles at Seeisoville” yesterday. It said one m an was<br />

wounded and arrested by police in <strong>the</strong> incident. “A bread delivery<br />

vehicle in Seeisoville was also robbed,” according to <strong>the</strong> report.<br />

Several people w ere injured when police fired birdshot and tear-<br />

gas inside <strong>the</strong> home <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> dead boy, m ourners said. At least six<br />

people w ere treated for injuries a t <strong>the</strong> local hospital.<br />

The first few shots were fired as mourners walked to <strong>the</strong> graveyard.<br />

A youth was rushed to hospital with birdshot wounds before<br />

m ourners reached <strong>the</strong> graveyard. Ano<strong>the</strong>r youth was treated by<br />

a local doctor for weals on his back caused by sjamboks.<br />

The fa<strong>the</strong>r <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> dead boy, Mr Abram Mntuze, said he was appalled<br />

by <strong>the</strong> unprovoked disruption <strong>of</strong> his son’s funeral.<br />

“What more m ust we do to please <strong>the</strong> police?<br />

Trapped in tent<br />

“The service was peaceful and <strong>the</strong> mourners behaved <strong>the</strong>mselves<br />

w ith dignity. I was appalled by <strong>the</strong> way people were treated by <strong>the</strong><br />

police. It was very unfair,” Mr Mntuze said.<br />

The township was thrown into turmoil after <strong>the</strong> police activity<br />

and a planned Sharpeville-Langa com m em oration service abandoned.<br />

The police were patrolling <strong>the</strong> streets until late in <strong>the</strong> day, with<br />

vehicles speeding along <strong>the</strong> sm all and dusty roads.<br />

A group <strong>of</strong> youths surged forward and hurled stones and o<strong>the</strong>r<br />

m issiles at a police bus after a teargas canister was thrown at<br />

m ourners inside <strong>the</strong> Mntuze home.<br />

Chairman <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Seeisoville P arents Crisis Committee Mr Biza<br />

Makhato said police fired teargas inside <strong>the</strong> tent in front <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

Mntuze home.<br />

“Many people w ere trapped inside <strong>the</strong> tent and o<strong>the</strong>rs in <strong>the</strong> two<br />

houses nearby. I was among those trapped inside one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> houses<br />

and choked by <strong>the</strong> strong teargas fumes.<br />

“I was totally surprised by <strong>the</strong> police action because <strong>the</strong> proceedings<br />

had been peaceful until <strong>the</strong>y started firing teargas. No one in<br />

<strong>the</strong> 10 000-strong crowd had done anything to provoke that kind <strong>of</strong><br />

police action. It was very unnecessary and could have cost lives,"<br />

The cleaning <strong>of</strong> graves <strong>of</strong> victii<br />

A large number <strong>of</strong> youths, m<br />

dead regarded as “m artyrs o<br />

M embers <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> International Red Cross yesterday<br />

visited Tembisa cem etery where five unidentified<br />

bodies had been brought for burial on <strong>the</strong><br />

day before and where youths, suspecting unrest<br />

victim s were being buried secretly, had chased a<br />

white undertaker away.<br />

C<strong>of</strong>fins containing unidentified bodies were<br />

abandoned in <strong>the</strong> graveyard when an employee <strong>of</strong><br />

tv, KepiDton Hua&et t fu n e ra l.<br />

"I saw a group <strong>of</strong> youths stone a c<strong>of</strong>fin in an<br />

open grave. One youth jumped on <strong>the</strong> c<strong>of</strong>fin and it<br />

broke, revealing <strong>the</strong> body <strong>of</strong> a young man, with a<br />

scar running from <strong>the</strong> naval to <strong>the</strong> neck. I believe<br />

this was a scar from a post mortem exam ination,”<br />

said Mrs M<strong>the</strong>mbu.<br />

She said police had appeared on <strong>the</strong> scene and<br />

<strong>the</strong> crowd scattered. The graves were later covered<br />

with soil by a worker at <strong>the</strong> graveyard.

package in <strong>the</strong> form <strong>of</strong> Bernardo<br />

called for tbe resignation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

National Party Member <strong>of</strong> Parliament,<br />

Mr Leon Weasels.<br />

The petition calls on <strong>the</strong> Government<br />

to remove <strong>the</strong> black<br />

township <strong>of</strong> Munsieville.<br />

Residents are so angry,<br />

<strong>the</strong>y asked a member <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

Conservative Party to subm<br />

it tbe petition.<br />

“Mr Wessels does not<br />

support <strong>the</strong> viewpoint <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> people <strong>of</strong> Kmgersdorp,”<br />

said Mr Willie Steyn, deputy<br />

chairman <strong>of</strong> tbe Kru-<br />

gersdorp Action Committee,<br />

<strong>the</strong> organisation behind<br />

<strong>the</strong> petition.<br />

“He made election promises<br />

in 1981 that he would<br />

see to <strong>the</strong> removal <strong>of</strong> Munsieville,<br />

but now he has fallen<br />

back on his promises.<br />

Challenge<br />

“We challenge him to<br />

show that he still supports<br />

<strong>the</strong> whites <strong>of</strong> Krugersdorp."<br />

However, Mr Wessels hit<br />

back at tbe charges.<br />

“I support <strong>the</strong> interests<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> people in my constituency,<br />

irrespective <strong>of</strong><br />

whe<strong>the</strong>r <strong>the</strong>y are black,<br />

white, coloured or Indian ”<br />

he said.<br />

“But <strong>the</strong>re are certain<br />

realities one has to face.<br />

“I support <strong>the</strong> Government's<br />

policy <strong>of</strong> no forced<br />

removals.”<br />

He admitted that he had<br />

made promises in 19S1.<br />

Viable<br />

“But after an in-depth investigation<br />

it has been<br />

found that it is just not financially<br />

or politically viable<br />

to resettle that section<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> black township,” he<br />

said.<br />

Ra<strong>the</strong>r, <strong>the</strong> Government<br />

h.-»s decided to allocate<br />

R22,S-million to upgrade<br />

<strong>the</strong> area.<br />

But <strong>the</strong> chairman <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

Ratepayers' Association <strong>of</strong><br />

K rugersdorp, Mr Danie<br />

Munsieville is a squatter<br />

it can be upgraded is to de-<br />

“It’s only now after all<br />
