Metrorail ticket troublesGARY VAN DYK

@gvdcapejazz

Metrorail staff’s methods of dealingwith the public have come under thespotlight after a young man’s experi-

ence left him traumatised.Liam Brown, 19, from Woodstock foundthat pointing out bad manners can land youin hot water if you deal with Metrorail staffat Parow Station.He explains that on Tuesday 28 June heboarded a train at Woodstock to start hisnight shift at a Parow factory.“The problem started when the ticket box(atWoodstock) was closedwhen I got there,”he says.“Normally this is not a problem, and therewas a number of people who could not pur-

chase tickets when they got onto the train.“When we got to Parow we explained thesituation to the staff at the barriers and wewere taken to what seemed to be a canteenor staff area because therewas lockers in theroom. From the start the woman who wasthere to write out the tickets was very rudeto the people. When it came for me to get aticket and I toldher that the officewas closedat Woodstock, like others had told her, butshe just refused to listen to me and told methat I must not have an attitude.“I pointed out that she was the one withattitude because of her rudeness to the peo-ple and how she must respect people espe-cially older people. That really upset her andshe ordered the other staff present to searchme and that I must give them all of my mon-ey.

“That is when I panickedand tried to get away but oneof the conductors grabbed meand head-butted me and toldme that they were going tokeep me there until I paid.“I tried to explain that theywere making me late for myshift but they refused to listento me and because I did nothave a phone asked one ofthem to letme callmymother.“After I called her and ex-plained the situation I askedto see their supervisor but gotno help from him as well.”While Liam’s mother,Nicky Asher-Pedro, tried toget family in Ravensmead to go to the sta-

tion, he was kept at the sta-tion for about an hour.“My mother eventuallycalled back to the phone thatI used and I don’t knowwhatshe said to them but theyeventually letme leavewhenone ofmyuncles arrived andI paid the normal price forthe ticket.”Asher-Pedro confirmedthat she was very worriedwhen she got the call fromher son.“I told them that they haveno right to abuse their powerand assault people,” shesays.

Protocolto netpoachersCracking down on illegal poachers, such

as those harvesting abalone, will be-comeeasier after an the signing of anagree-ment to boost resources fighting marinepoaching.

The City of Cape Town and the Depart-ment of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisher-ies (Daff) have signed an ImplementationProtocol that paves the way for closer coop-eration and mutual support in the fightagainst illegal marine resource extractionalong the City’s 300km coastline.

Through the Implementation Protocolwith Daff, City law enforcement officershave been trained and appointed as fisherycontrol officers in terms of the Marine Liv-ing Resources Act, with full powers.

The City established a specialised Ma-rine and Environmental Law EnforcementUnit in 2013. The focus of the unit has beenmarine and coastal law enforcement, in-cluding inshore boat patrols. Recent suc-cesses by the unit are testament to the tire-less efforts of members of the unit.

“Marine resource abuse is an issue thatthe local economy and marine environ-ment cannot afford,” says Mayco memberfor energy, environmental and spatial plan-ning Johan van der Merwe.

“Therefore, as the City, it is vital for usto establish effective ways of collaboratingwith partners such as Daff to fight againstmarine-related transgressions taking placeacross the city. Daff has proven to be an in-valuable partner and the expertise thatthey are bringing to the table is most wel-come,” he says.

FROM PAGE 1“When I asked for theirnames they refusedto give it to me and the woman that I spoketo told me I have an attitude and switchedoff the phone. My brother-in-law managedto go to the station and was shocked to seehow distraught Liam was. They tried toconvince him that they had not assaultedmy son. I just want the public to know theirrights in this type of situation.”

Many commuters have reported inci-dents where ticket offices are closed.

Estelle Mathee works in Woodstock andadds that many of her staff from as farafield as theKuilsRiver andBellville areasand in the southern suburbs from RetreatandSteenberghave experiencedproblems.“Many of them have to leave for work be-fore the offices are open,” she says.

“The problems start when they get totheir destination and they have to con-vince staff at the barriers that the officeswere closed when they started their jour-ney.”

Trevor Vosloo is from a business basedin Claremont who has also experienced thesame problems. “My staff have also experi-enced the same situation and it does nothelp when the trains do not run on timeor are delayed. I hope that Metrorail canassist by informing all their staff at barri-ers what the proper process is when people

start their journeys before offices open. Weunderstand that people must not travel forfree but why must they be punished forsomething that is not their fault.”

Metrorail spokesperson, Riana Scott,has responded in a statement: “Metrorailis obliged to ensure that all commuterstravel legally. Travelling without a validticket or in the incorrect travelling classfor the ticket purchased is a criminal of-fence in terms of the Legal Succession Act.

“Hundreds of fare-paying commuterscomplain daily about fellow non-payingpassengers invading premium space inMetroplus carriages – it adds unnecessarypressure to already over-subscribed ultra-peak hours. Metrorail reserves the right tolevy a booking fee (currently R40) and/orprosecute persons without valid train tick-ets. Commuters issued with such a book-ing fee must insist on a receipt.”

Ticket office hours are generally deter-mined by the timetable, analysis of ticketsales and passenger numbers using theparticular station, Scott says. “Should aticket office at the origin station be closed,commuters are obliged to purchase a ticketeither on the train from teams with porta-ble ticket issuing machines or at their des-tination station before exiting.

“Those found to be in contravention of

the law, are required to wait at the stationin a designated area until they have beenprocessed. Many ‘defaulters’ offer rea-sons/explanations/excuses for havingtransgressed the law and Metrorail em-ployees have the unenviable task to makea judgment call as to whose emergency isvalid or not. Verification staff must con-firm that the ticket office at the commut-er’s station of origin was closed.”

Until modernisation brings the requisitetechnology (automated ticket vending ma-chines and ticket scanners), Metrorail cur-rently is left with no option but to rely onhuman intervention, Scott says. “The mosteffective way to deal with the matter isthrough special actions. Optimal deploy-ment of resources is based on analysis ofticket sales and commuter numbers. Theseinclude random actions on trains and atstations with space to process commuters.We do not condone any misconduct by oursecurity personnel or employees and com-muters should not be subjected to unac-ceptable behaviour.

“We encourage individuals to open acase of assault with the police if behaviourwarrants that or report non-conformingemployee behaviour via email to [email protected], citing all rele-vant details.”

HOUT BAY

Once the problem,now the solutionTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

Community Cohesion in Hout Bay is do-ing their bit to help youth, in conflict

with the law, to become better citizens.This non-profit organisation helps teens

by setting themback on track.Most of theseboys and girls, aged between eight and 17,come from Imizamo Yethu. Instead of beingsent to prison, they are encouraged to joinCommunity Cohesion’s The Doorway pro-gramme.

“This programme is aimed at minors inconflict with the law, and is for both girlsand boys,” says Bronwyn Moore, directorof Community Cohesion. “The objective isto keep them out of jail and get them eitherback into school or into further training.”

Started four years ago, they are funded inpart for their Victim Empowerment Pro-gramme by the Department of Social Devel-opment. They are funded for their OneSchool at a Time (Osat) by Swiss Re Africa,and per programme roll-out forMen of Hon-our and TheDoorway by private donors liv-ing in the service delivery areas.

Their service delivery areas are HoutBay, Ocean View, Masiphumelele, FishHoek, Simon’s Town and Woodstock.

Moorewent on to saymany organisationswork with troubled youth in schools.“We were dealing with the fallout of the

youthwho had no guidance nor parental in-put, and most of the time were left to theirown devices. In partnership with the Com-munity Police Forum, wework very closelywith the police to figure out some kind ofsolution for theseminors – something otherthan giving up and saying there is nothingthat can be done with them.”The programme is an intensive reposi-

tioning and reframing of their views, theirlives and their goals.

Many of the the participants are too oldto enter the formal schooling system at thegrade they last passed, so they were en-rolled at Sijonga Phambili. They have theirfees paid for the six-month long pro-gramme. However, they also have to “pay”for their petty crimes by washing policecars at Hout Bay police station every Mon-day. “This is their giveback for their schoolfees at Sijonga Phambili being covered.They started out at the wrong end of the po-lice, being apprehended doing petty crime,and now are giving back by being seen aspart of a solution as opposed to a problem,”says Moore.Community Cohesion requieres R12 000

permonth to run the programme in a specif-ic area. This covers the cost of two facilita-torswho run the programme everyMondayfrom 10:00 to 13:00 and Thursday from 17:00until 19:00 eachweek fora six-monthperiod.This covers the costs of providing lunch

for the boys and supper for the girls. “It isa very successful programme and we arevery happy at the response from the boys.”It is early days and they still have a way

to go, yet they have solidly said goodbye totheir past and are trying to determine theirfuture,Moore says. “We do not do anythingfor our clients – we educate them as to theirrights and responsibilities and walk thepath with them to claiming those rights, ul-timately enabling them to take ownershipof their lives.”They are planning to expand The Door-

way andMenofHonour programmes inMa-siphumelele in the 2016/2017 financial yearand Ocean View in the 2017/2018 financialyear. “If we are able to secure funding forthese projects in both areas, we will roll outinOceanView in the current financial year.V Contact Community Cohesion on 061 683 6943 oremail [email protected] or [email protected]

Taking actionagainst cancerTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

Women Taking Action from Tokai inpartnership with the Department of

Correctional Services West Coast launcheda pap smear and glucose screening in Mal-mesbury event on Sunday 26 June.

About 150 women from various farms inthe vicinity were invited to be tested.

The event was hosted at the MalmesburyCorrectional Centre with the Malmesburyprison band as well as a comedian at handto entertain the women for the afternoon.At the event,WomenTakingAction handedout Teal Ribbons to all the guests to raiseawareness of cervical cancer.

Shirly Paulse, chairperson of WomenTaking Action, was moved to action whenshe heard about the backlog in the publichealth system with pap smear testing.“All too often one hears of breast cancer

and Aids campaigns, but never of cervicalcancer and early detection of the diseasecan save lives. The Cancer Association ofSouth Africa revealed that statisticallymore than 3400 women are lost to cervicalcancer annually. So with this launch wewant to reduce the number of people whodie because of cervical cancer,” she says.

Women Taking Action believes that it istime for the private sector to share in the

responsibility of fulfilling the vision of gov-ernment to take care of the poor.

“We want to assist in raising awarenesswith the support of government depart-ments. We believe that together we will bethat change that we want to see in our lessfortunate communities. We will be goingaround the communities to help those thatneed us the most,” adds Paulse.Nomaindia Mfeketo, Deputy Minister of

International Relations and Cooperation,was the guest speaker for the day. She of-fered the women some inspiring words andassisted Women Taking Action with thehandingover of toiletries, scarves andpash-minas.Paulse secured the services of Precedence

Laboratories who agreed to come on boardto do the free pap smear testing for thewom-en. Those who attended the event were giv-en a wholesome hot meal, cooked andserved by offenders from the Department ofCorrectional Services, Malmesbury. Theevent ended in a high tea prepared byWom-en Taking Action.Paulse says all stakeholderswere delight-

ed with the success of the event andWomenTaking Action have resolved to continue todo regular programs in less fortunate com-munities to make the change.V To learn more about the organisation and the workthey do, visit www.womentakingaction.org

Ryan Stramrood, SA Extreme UltraSwimmer and media personality, was

attacked at his home in Constantia on Sat-urday 25 June.Stramrood says hewoke up

early that Saturday morning.“I was up early, heading for

a big swim session at 05:50. Inmy security complex, I walk-ed to my car in the dark andwas attacked by three men.One put a gun to my head theother a knife to my side. Thethird took my wallet, phoneand watch then ransackedthe car,” he says in a Face-book post on the incident.“Hoping the ordeal was

over, they then asked who Ilived with and I told themalone. They decided to walkme back to my unit, unlock itand rob it. They made mekneel on the bedroom floor,keeping the gun on my headwhile two guys collected everything theycould carry using my bags to carry it all.They found and took my laptop and all myexternal backups of 20 years: work, emails,photos and swimming trip videos. I askedfor my credit cards and some of the damnexpensive Apple connections in my bag,which they agreed to after a small whack

to the head with the gun telling me to stoptelling them what to do.”Stramrood says the suspects then tied his

hands and feet, gagged him very tightly andblindfolded him. “This was the scariestpart. As they did that and just before thegag, I asked for my phone and told them it

can be tracked. Then the gagwas on. They locked the bed-room door and left me lying onthe floor, took the key withthem. Once I got the blindfoldoff, I saw they had tossed thephone on the bed and I wasable to call police and KieronPalframan (a fellow extremeswimmer) who came as quick-ly as they could,” he says.DiepRiverPolice spokesper-

son Warrant officer KeithChandler confirmed the inci-dent. “The well-known swim-merwasaccosted inhis securi-ty complex. It is alleged thatthree men cut a hole in thefence that leads from the Con-stantia Green belt onto thepremises.

“Two of the suspects were armed withknives and the third suspect was armedwith a firearm. No shots were fired and no-body was seriously injured. A case of houserobbery was opened and being investigat-ed,” says Chandler.V Anyone with information can contact DetectiveWarrant Officer Steven Young at 021 710 7342

A R10m grant has been awarded to RobbenIsland Museum.

The museum was awarded a destinationdevelopment grant from the National De-partment of Tourism, which aims to en-hance the visitor experience through sup-porting identified and planned components,the department says in a statement.

The current support focus is on capacitydevelopment of tourist guides, digitisationof heritage information and archives, im-proving visitor information services, in-creasing existing and introducing addition-al food and beverage facilities, as well as acraft centre.

Robben Island Museum had not comment-ed at the time of going to print.

Cape Town Tourism CEO, Enver Duminy,says Robben Island says: “The Robben Is-land Museum can only benefit from fundingof this nature in that it will be able to pro-vide and maintain world-class facilities.”

In December there was a 43% increase inthe number of visitors to the world heritagesite compared to the previous year, Duminysays.

“The attraction reported that the numberof locals visiting the attraction doubled inDecember compared with the same periodin 2014. It’s essential that locals exploretheir own environment, especially attrac-tions such as Robben Island that play a keyrole in our heritage,” he says.

There were 341 000 visitors to Robben Is-land in 2015 – an increase of 3.7% over 2014.However, 46 793 tickets were sold for the at-traction in December alone – 15% more thanthe amount sold during the 2010 SoccerWorld Cup in South Africa.

Robben Island has already expanded itsfleet of ferries by partnering with Water-front Charters, making use of their six me-dium and large sized boats, Duminy says.

“This increase in capacity will aid in en-suring visitors are able to access the attrac-tion. Future plans include a 200-seater res-taurant, the introduction of a state-of-the-art visitor information centre, training oftour guides, developing tours of differentlengths to keep visitors on the island forlonger and bicycle tours on the island.”

R10m grant to grow tourism

On Sunday 3 July the Two Oceans Aquari-um and organisations around the world

marked International Plastic Bag Free Day.The day aims to raise awareness about the

unnecessary use of single-use plastic bags.The Two Oceans Aquarium supports a

ban of single use plastic shopping bags inSouth Africa through its Rethink the Bagcampaign.

The campaign was launched by HayleyMcLellan, the aquarium’s environmentalcampaigner, who has worked tirelesslysince 2010 to educate, establish partner-ships and promote the campaign.

Many countries around the world havebanned these bags. Rwanda did so in 2008and more recently the island chain of Ha-waii, Mauritius and Madagascar. Francewill have banned the bag by end 2016.

Single-use shopping bags have a tremen-

dous impact on the environment, McLellansays.

“South African consumers use approxi-mately eight billion shopping bags eachyear. Of these about 96% end up in landfilland also threaten the lives of marine andterrestrial animals. Research has shownthat the average functioning lifespan of ashopping bag is approximately 20 minutes,whereafter it is discarded,” she says.

“Every day we hear about what is goingwrong in the environment and this can feeldisempowering. Always choosing reusablebags, rather than plastic bags, is such a sim-ple way for each person to do something tobenefit our world and feel like they are mak-ing a difference, seemingly against theodds.”

There is also an economic impact forSouth African consumers, McLellan says.

“In 2003 a levy was included in the priceof each shopping bag sold in South Africa.Between 2004 and 2014, R1.2bn was collectedthrough this levy. Only R200m of this moneyhas been allocated to the Department of En-vironmental Affairs. In 2011 the companythat was established to manage the fundsgenerated by the bag levy, was disbanded.However, consumers continue to pay thebag levy every time they purchase a single-use plastic shopping bag.”

Animals (marine and terrestrial) mistakeplastic bags for food. Once ingested, the ani-mals die from intestinal blockages and star-vation. Eighty percent of all marine litter isplastic and plastic bags can last between 500and 1000 years before they degrade.V To show your support of the Rethink the Bag cam-paign, visit www.rethinkthebag.org and sign the peti-tion to urge the government to ban plastic bags.

LEGAL TALK WITH DENZIL

When is it murder?Over the past few years there hasbeenmuch debate about the differ-ence between murder and culpa-ble homicide.It is only recently, with the Os-

car Pistorius trial, that the differ-ence between the two concepts hasbeen debated and become a hottopic on social media. It has cer-tainly raised interesting yet con-troversial issues.This is largely controversial and

not clear as one would think, espe-cially after the Supreme Court ofAppeal set aside the finding andconviction of the court a quo onculpable homicide of Pistorious,and substituting it with a findingof murder. As a consequence, theaccused sentence was trumped upto a minimum of 15 years.Murder is a serious offence and

can be punishable by a minimumsentence of up to 15 years to life.Culpable homicide is less seriousand could be punishable by only afew years depending upon the cir-cumstances.The assumption by some laypeo-

ple is that if an accused kills a vic-tim, the action is automaticallyperceived as murder. That posi-tion is incorrect.As a result of the above percep-

tion, many asked the question:“Why Oscar was not charged withmurder as opposed to the the less-er crimeof culpablehomicide?”Aswe know this has now been substi-tuted and his charge has now beenchanged to murder and we areawaiting the sentence that fits therevised charge.In a nutshell, the difference be-

tween the charges is rather sim-ple: murder requires intentionwhile the culpable homicide re-quires negligence.Murder is the intentional, un-

lawful killing of another humanbeing. Murder therefore requiresthat the accused acted with the in-tention to kill. In other words, theaccused strategically planned theunlawful act of murder. Alterna-tively, it can be “legal intention”as discussed below.Culpable homicide, however, is

deemed a potentially unforeseea-ble, unplanned accident.The fundamental question, from

a criminal law perspective, did theaccused actwith the intentionnec-essary for a charge of murder?In recent years the concept of in-

tention has extended to cover notjust deliberatebut foreseeable con-duct.The accused does not mean nor

intend for the unlawful act to hap-pen, but he must have foreseenthat it might happen. This is re-ferred to as dolus eventualis.An example of dolus eventualis

is where someone decides to burna block of apartments occupying20 families.Hemight not have had the clear

intention to kill anyone in theapartments but the law recognisesthat he intended the death of somepeople by his actions. In essence,by foreseeing the possibility ofdeath (however remote) and act-ing regardless, he had the inten-tion to commit murder.Importantly, the accused does

not have to foresee the result as a

probable outcome of his conduct,but he must at least have foreseenthe outcome as a possibility.In a nutshell, the test for dolus

eventualis is whether the accusedforesaw the remote possibility ofharm. It is then deemed “legal in-tention” and the charge will bemurder.Culpable homicide, likemurder,

is a form of unlawful killing. Thedifference is that murder is inten-tional, whereas culpable homicideis a negligent act of killing.How does the court draw that

distinction?The court uses an objective test

to ascertain if the act was negli-gent. In otherwords, to shownegli-gence the Prosecution must showthat a “reasonable man” in the po-sition of the accused, would nothave foreseen the death as a resultof the consequences.The question is therefore: did

the accused foresee the possibilityof killing someone when he firedthe gun (culpable homicide) ormust the accused have foreseenthe possibility of killing someone(murder)?The test is one of the “reasonable

man” – the court will examinewhat the objective circumstancesof a “reasonable man” would havebeen in the situation of the ac-cused.The conclusion of the examina-

tion will determine the outcome.V This column was contributed by DenzilJacobs, an admitted advocate with ex-pertise in commercial law. For guidance onlegal issues email him on [email protected].

LETTERS

Thanks to themen in blueLast Tuesday evening around21:00 I had a most terrifyingexperience while driving on theM3 highway between the Lady’sMile on-ramp and the Tokaioff-ramp.My car was sideswiped by an

out-of-control vehicle which flewon for about 50 meters and slidoff into the ditch.Thankfully, I was in the right

lane and was able to stop, turnon hazards and move off theroad into the emergency lane.A few moments later a metro

police vehicle arrived andseeing my hazards and myflashing lights turned back andtook control.I just want to say how

re-assuring, comforting andorganised they were.There was also a Kirstenhof

neighbourhood communityofficer, Hadyn, who was simplymarvellous and transported meto Kirstenhof Police Stationwhere again I received theupmost courtesy.I was advised not to attempt

to drive my car and agreed to

accept the assistance and adviceof an AA affiliated recoveryagent.As I am a member of the AA

I saw no problem with that, butin the next few days the releasecost of the vehicle was aproblem and resulted in a delayin my car being sent forassessment and repair.However the purpose of this

letter is in praise of our veryoverworked police force and ourdedicated emergency workerswho have to deal with all thesesituations – many much morehorrific than mine.We get daily negative reports

about our police force so I thinkin my case a little praise is inorder.The good news is that there

were no serious injuries to themany occupants of the unli-censed vehicle, driven by anuninsured and unlicenseddriver.My most sincere thanks to all

who were involved.M.A. JOHNSTONMarina da Gama

Wintermarks the time of year that the liqui-fied petroleumgas (LPG) business grows ex-ponentially almost overnight.LPG is amixture of two gases, butane and

propane, which are both derived from therefining process of crude oil into petroleum.These two gases are extremely flammable,but stable and safe when handled correctly.AlthoughLPGnaturally does not have a dis-tinctive colour or smell, the refineries addsulphur to the mixture to make it easilyidentifiable should there be a leak. As a re-sult, gas leaks are easy to detect and reducesthe risk of injury to leaks to almost zero.As with electricity, negligence causes ac-

cidents. LPG can be safely transported andstored in cylinders. These cylinders allwork on a deposit basis from the major in-dustry leaders, retailing for R342 (includingVAT) as a national standard. This meansthat the consumer is able to exchange anyof these cylinders at any distributor andstill maintain the deposit, as it stays con-

stant between the various suppliers.When purchasing a cylinder from a dis-

tributor it is important to note that the ‘heatshrink’ seal on the valve matches the makeof the cylinder purchased. Should you no-tice that the seal is clear without any mark-ings, this may be an indication that the cyl-inder has not been filled by an authoriseddealer and you might be compromising thesafety of your family. The seal on the cylin-der has a serial number which is linked toa specific distributor to ensure accountabil-ity in the case of under-filling or injury.During winter the LPG business runs on

the limit for around four months. People inthe Western Cape often experience shorta-ges during this time, due to the enormousdemand. Companies such as Eddlesgas inRetreat have stated that business can in-crease from 30 tonnes permonth to asmuchas 110 tonnes permonth during peakwintertimes.It is imperative to follow some easy safety

tips:. Check for seals on cylinders,. Ensure the cylinder is safe foruse (clear

markings on the cylinder to determine cor-rect mass and capacity, little to no rust visi-ble, thevalve is intact, there isnooil/ greaseon the cylinder),

. Makeuse of a respected, authorised dis-tributor,

. Be familiar with your appliance,

. Ensure your appliance is approved byLPGSA, and

. There areno leaksbetween the cylinderand the appliance (check for leaks by spray-ing soapy water on all the connections andchecking for excessive bubbles).Lastly, ensure your gas installation has a

valid Certificate of Compliance (COC).V LPG is safe when handled correctly and proper careis taken. Should you have any queries or questionsregarding the safe usage of LPG feel free to call 0861BUY GAS, for free advice from professionals in the in-dustry.

There’s more to the Wetton Triangle Feed-ing Scheme than filling hungry tummies

in the southern suburbs.This is a project that is making residents

in the area meet each other as neighboursand working for a good cause.

Chairperson of the organisation, WaheedAmod, explains that the idea started in 2014when, along with three other friends in-volved in the neighbourhood watch, he real-ised that people in the area did not knoweach other and there was a need to care forthe homeless in surrounding areas. “Duringour patrols we realised that there was a needfor people to become real ‘neighbours’ andinteract with each other. What better way toget to know each other by working togetherin a project like this where we show that wecare about the less fortunate.”

Two years later and they’re going strongas they gathered at a home in Canal Road,Wetton, on Sunday 3 July, where the teamwas cooking up a storm for distribution.

“Currently we feed areas such as Wetton,

Lansdowne, Wynberg, Retreat, Diep River,Muizenberg, Mitchell’s Plain, Athlone, Phil-lipi and expanding to areas such as Laven-der Hill and Delft,” continues Amod.

“We enjoy that we are able to feed the un-derprivileged throughout the year but youcan see that it’s about more than that. It’sgetting all in the area involved. Our aim isalso to set a trend and inspire other neigh-bourhoods to reach out and start projects tohelp the underprivileged. It can be in a for-mat of cooking food once a month to teachingother skills that’s not fortunate to study sothey can use the knowledge they gained tohelp their community.”

Amod adds that all the cooking is fundedby the generous residents of Wetton, alongwith friends and acquaintances of the steer-ing committee. “The scheme’s goal is to feedas many people as possible and is keen topartner with other organisations who wantto assist us, or need our help. We also wouldurge business to get involved in projects intheir community and to help those trying tomake a difference.”V Call Waheed Amod on 082 786 1002, Sharief Allieon 072 782 1754 or email [email protected].

Malikah is also an accomplished cricket-er. “She is an all-rounder who bowls legbreaks and a middle order batsman. She hasan unorthodox action which is quite similarto former South African cricketer, Paul Ad-ams,” says Boebie.

“Malikah is highly rated as a leggie andmany pundits believe that she will make thesenior national side before she reaches mat-ric. Malikah currently plays for St Augus-tines Cricket Club where Paul Adams andthe late Basil D’Oliveira ploughed theirtrade. She plays in the boys u.11 side as wellas the senior ladies side where she took 17

wickets last season and had a top score of28 not out against UCT. This season she hasthus far picked up 17 wickets after only sixT20 matches.

“Earlier this year Malikah was invited tothe WP u.19 schools girls cricket trials andmade it past five grueling rounds. She waslater called up into the side but had to with-draw as it coincided with the national u.13indoor hockey tournament.”

According to Boebie, Malikah is also theonly female cricketer in the world who issponsored by Slazenger.

Malikah was selected for a WP CombinedClub XI ladies side to play against the Zimb-abwe national ladies side and took the firstwicket in the match. This made her theyoungest cricketer to play against an inter-national side.

Greenwood totackle IdolsJOSEPH PILLAY

Quite a few mouth-watering soccermatches are scheduled for Sunday inthe Round of the Last 64 in Safa CapeTown’s lucrative and ever-popular Co-

ca-Cola Cup knockout competition.At the time of going to press, the regional

body Safa Cape Town had not finalized theavailable venues or those fields suited to begood condition to host the fourth round ofmatches in the Cape Peninsula.

This is the 20th chapter of the Coca-ColaCup competition and it is a replica of whatthe FA Cup is to their English FA adversa-ries and has attracted over 500 amateurteams throughout the region.

Nonetheless it is all systems go and highamong the people’s choice will be the clashbetween last years’ Coca-Cola Cup champi-ons Young Idols and Greenwood Athletic.

The Retreat-based side Greenwood Athlet-ic is currently enjoying a healthy season inthe Cape District LFA Super League and isregarded as firm favourites to regain thechampionship title from Ocean View whowon it last season.

With that in mind the Greenwood side facea stiff challenge against Young Idols and willhave to be more clinical in order to beat theirManenberg opponents in a match that couldproduce some exciting football in this epicencounter.

However, Greenwood Athletic will be thesecond club side from Cape District LFA thatYoung Idols will be competing against fol-lowing their 2-0 win over coach Richard Rah-way’s Devonshire Rovers side recently.

Idols coach Paul “Gazza” Johnson hasurged his players to be ruthless againstGreenwood Athletic in order to keep theirCoke Cup campaign alive.

Johnson states that the Retreat-based sidecould be a handful. “The key is to find waysto play through a very compact, very well or-ganised Greenwood side. We have to findways to find the forwards, find spots to gothrough. It doesn’t really matter what sys-tem you play. They are defensively verygood and our strikers will have to more clini-cal and make sure that we find those oppor-

tunities against our opponents and finishthem off,” adds Johnson.

Adding to the thrills, Silver Spurs – the2014 former champions – will lock horns willTrinitarians after both teams rose to the oc-casion triumphantly in beating KewtownUnited (4-2) and Hanover Rangers (5-1) re-spectively.

Silver Spurs coach Victor Tajoodien hasalways believed in his tried and tested faith-ful players like Elrico Corneillissen, NizaamMuller, Dino Hendricks, Terence Boqwanaand Cheslyn Tajoodien.

Equally confident is the Uitsig outfit andthey will not lie down easily without a fight.

Liverpool-Portland from Mitchell’s Plain– who won the trophy twice, first in 1996 asthe first recreants of knockout prime eventand in 2000 – will enter the lion’s den withGrassy Park United in another intriguinggame that should stretch both defences.

Crystal Palace having eliminated MilanoUnited (2-1) in the previous round will meetLeeds Lentegeur in a contest that Palacecoach, Achmat Williams, is pretty confidentat his key players in Gavin Hammers andLindani Ntamo with the support and back-ing of the other players in the team will pavethe way for a place in the Last 32.

The derby clash between the ManenbergLFA teams, namely Tottenham Hotspursand D&G Orient, has many fanatics talkingand enthusias believe it will be a hard foughtbattle in which no quarter will be given.

Then spare a thought for the Juventus ver-sus Cape Town Military clash.

Likewise the challenge between High-lands Park and Rygersdal and Mfuleni Unit-ed up against three time Jamestown Unitedchampions (1997, 1998 and 2008) is among thefinger licking matches that dare not bemissed.Other fixtures:Benfica vs Young Pirates,

Dunoon YSA vs Glendene United, Langa Cit-izens vs Bluegum United, Heinz Park vs SSSAcademy, Wesley United vs Riverside Ran-gers, Melchester Rovers vs Ravensmead,Kuils River vs Two For Joy, Eleven Attack-ers vs Leiden Fusion Spurs, Florentina vsCape Town Rangers and FCG Hotspurs vsEastern Rovers.
