AfriForum has demanded in a letter to Ministers that a family who are currently being detained in a COVID-19 #quarantine camp in Groblersdal, are released to self-isolate & that their wish to be tested may not be denied.
Ernst Roets (@ErnstRoets), Head of Policy and Action at AfriForum:
AfriForum also last week demanded that the threat by Sihle Zikalala, Premier of KwaZulu-Natal, that people who test positive for COVID-19 will be forced into quarantine camps regardless of whether they are effectively self-isolating, should be retracted.
Zikalala did retract his threat following a lawyer’s letter from AfriForum sent to Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma, Minister of Cooperative Government and Traditional Affairs, regarding it.
However, the regulations issued by Dlamini-Zuma still empowers government officials to do exactly what Zikalala threatened to do, and AfriForum therefore plans to continue with legal action in this regard.
Vandag hou ons ’n optog om teen die Bela-wet protes aan te teken. Ons stap vir ons kinders.
#StopBela
#LosOnsKindersUit
Die optog het begin by die Voortrekkermonument en geëindig by Freedom Park waar ons die regering sal ontmoet om ’n memorandum aan hulle te oorhandig.
Bela is ’n verbreking van die 1994-ooreenkoms. Ons wil die regering dus ontmoet by die plek wat die regering gebou het om die oorgang na ’n demokratiese bestel in 1994 te simboliseer.
Attackers chant “Kill the Boer, kill the Farmer” before stabbing female victim with spear.
A couple from Pietermaritzburg in KwaZulu-Natal were severely assaulted on their farm while their attackers shouted, “Kill the Boer, kill the Farmer”.
Four attackers forced their way into the farmhouse of Tim Platt and his wife, Amanda, during the early morning hours of 17 August. The attackers gained entry to the house by breaking down the front door and security gate, as well as a window and burglar bars.

Die wrede werklikheid van geslagsgebaseerde geweld is weer blootgelê met die verskyning van skokkende kringtelevisiebeeldmateriaal wat ’n man uitbeeld wat na bewering sy vrou aanrand terwyl hul dogter haar ma probeer beskerm.
