Major breakthrough in murders at retirement home – Female caregiver at retirement centre is a suspect

Posted on Leave a comment

The Provincial Commissioner, Lieutenant General Liziwe Ntshinga has hailed the sterling efforts of the Mount Road Cluster Detective Trio Task Team and the Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation (Hawks) in Port Elizabeth for their incessant investigation of the double murders which took place at a retirement centre in Stella Londt Drive in Port Elizabeth.

It is alleged that on Thursday, 10 October 2019, at about 05:45, staff found two elderly women murdered in separate rooms at the Retirement Centre.

It is further alleged that during the early hours of the morning, an unknown number of suspects entered the premises through an unlocked door and security gate on the upper level of the main building in the complex.

The suspects entered the first room where they confronted Ms Agnes Elaine Burns (91). She was found on the bed with her feet and hands tied and her mouth gagged. The room was ransacked. The suspects then entered another room further down the passa

Mom chops off penis of man she believes raped and murdered her daughter

Posted on Leave a comment

A Port Elizabeth mother accused of cutting off the penis of a man she suspected of her daughter’s rape and murder has been released on bail after a fundraising effort by a children’s organisation, which refused to see her and her seven-month-old son spend another night behind bars.

The Enough is Enough group raised money for the bail of a woman accused of castrating a man she believed raped and killed her young daughter.

Tracy Linde, the founder of Enough is Enough, told News24 that R2 000 had been raised within eight hours as news of Veronique Makwena’s inability to pay her R500 bail spread.

Sufficient funds were collected to also buy flowers for murdered five-year-old Chantel’s grave. She was reportedly raped, beaten to death with a rock and dumped in an outhouse near her family’s Rocklands home on August 3.

Makwena, her sister-in-law Noxolo Manele and friend Siyabonga Phalati have been in jail for the past two weeks after an attack on a man they believed

The African way! If you don’t get what you want, just toi-toi! Unruly students blocked off the entrances to the Nelson Mandela University with tyres and debris

Posted on Leave a comment

The Nelson Mandela University in Port Elizabeth has suspended lectures yesterday due to student protests. Protesters blocked off the entrances to the campus with tyres and debris over a lack of security. The students said there has been a high rate of crime on campus including rape and violent assault.

There were also reports of clashes with security guards.

The university’s Zandile Mbalela said: “As a precautionary measure against the possible escalation of matters, the university then took a decision to temporarily suspend, until further notice, physical lectures. We encourage our lecturers and students to continue the learning and teaching mandate using alternative platforms.”

Schack dwellers from informal settlement caused chaos after been defrauded of over R150 000 for plots – burning tyres and stones where the order of the day – nothing new for sunny SA?

Posted on Leave a comment

Chaos erupted in Motherwell on Thursday when residents of Endlovini informal settlement, Port Elizabeth, said they had been defrauded of over R150,000 by community committee members. They burnt tyres, blew whistles, and closed the busy Uitenhage Road.

Ward 54 Councillor Morgan Tshaka (ANC) met about 200 angry residents. They told him households had each paid about R200 for a plot of land.

There are about 1,000 shacks now in the settlement.
Mandisi Mabekanjani, who occupied the land in August 2018, said the R200 fee he and others paid was meant to be for the committee to hire a bulldozer to clear the bush for plots.

“There was a committee lady and a rasta committee member … They took my money … I cleared it [the bush] by myself for three weeks to get the plot … We don’t see where this money is going. There is not even proof that you had paid for a plot. All they did was write your name in a book and tell you that you’ve got the

Cheeky Watson pleads ‘not guilty’ to charges of fraud and money laundering

Posted on Leave a comment

Former Eastern Province Rugby Union (EPRU) president Cheeky Watson has pleaded ‘not guilty’ to charges of fraud and money laundering.

The trial got underway on Tuesday.

According to the HeraldLIVE website, Watson says he was unaware of any fraudulent activities and that he did not know that anything was wrong when Nadia Gerwel, a former assistant director of accounting at the Nelson Mandela bay metro, transferred R2.9 million into the EPRU bank account.

Another development from Tuesday was that a third charge, failure to report fraud, has been added to Watson’s charge sheet.

Watson, Gerwel, Andrea Wessels and Mandisi Mkasa are all accused of being involved in alleged fraudulent activities that amount to R12 million and centre around funds for Port Elizabeth’s Integrated Public Transport System.

This report does not necessarily reflects the opinion of SA-news.
