Abantu abayisikhombisa babulawa ezigamekweni ezimbili ezahlukene zokudubulana kwabantu abaningi eWestern Cape ngesikhathi sikaKhisimusi, kwathi amadoda amabili adutshulwe abulawa endaweni engahlelekile yaseTsunami eDelft ngomhlaka-25 Disemba kwathi amanye amahlanu ashayiswa eSteve Tshwete Street ePhilippi ngomhlaka-27 Disemba, ngokusho kwemibiko yamaphoyisa. Abasolwa kulesi sigameko sasePhilippi babaleke ngemoto engaziwa futhi basagcwele amathafa, kuyilapho izisusa zokuhlasela kokubili zisaphenywa.<\/p>\n

Ukudutshulwa KwaseDelft NasePhilippi Kungaphansi Kophenyo Lwamaphoyisa<\/h4>\n

Okhulumela amaphoyisa uWesley Twigg uthe isigameko saseDelft sihilela abahlaseli abangena endlini endaweni engahlelekile yaseTsunami bavulela ngenhlamvu kubantu ababehlala kuyo, okwaholela ekufeni kwabantu ababili. "Ngokwemibiko izisulu bezihleli ngaphakathi endlini ngesikhathi abasolwa abangaziwa bengena babadubula ngezibhamu eziningana," kusho uTwigg, njengoba kubikwe yi-IOL.<\/p>\n

Ekuhlaselweni kwePhilippi, okhulumela amaphoyisa uNovela Potelwa uqinisekise ukuthi amadoda amathathu alimele kabi ngesikhathi ehleli ngaphakathi kweToyota Avanza emile kuSteve Tshwete Street. "Imibiko yamaphoyisa ikhombisa ukuthi abantu abashonile bebesemotweni emile kuSteve Tshwete Street lapho abasolwa abahlanu abangakabonakali bephuma kwenye imoto badubula ngokungahleliwe," kusho uPotelwa. Abahlaseli babaleka endaweni yesigameko, kanti amaphoyisa anxuse umphakathi ngolwazi oluzosiza ophenyweni lwabo.<\/p>\n

Umphakathi Ucela Ukubambisana Ukuze Kuxazululwe Udlame Oluqhubekayo<\/h4>\n

IWestern Cape ihlaselwe uchungechunge lokudubula okukhulu eminyakeni yamuva nje, okuphakamisa ukukhathazeka okuqhubekayo mayelana nokuphepha komphakathi kanye nekhono lamaphoyisa lokuphendula ngempumelelo. Izikhulu zomphakathi, okuhlanganisa noNobhala-Jikelele weNyanga Community Policing Forum uDumisani Qwebe, zinxusa ukubambisana okukhulu phakathi kwezakhamuzi zendawo, amaphoyisa kanye nabanye abathintekayo. "Sifuna umphakathi usebenzisane namaphoyisa futhi sifuna nemboni yamatekisi ibe yingxenye yemihlangano mayelana nokuphepha," kusho uQwebe etshela i-IOL.<\/p>\n

Lezi zigameko zakamuva ziqokomisa ubudlova obuqhubekayo obuthinta imiphakathi yabasebenzi kanye nesidingo esiphuthumayo sesenzo esihlangene sokubhekana nezimbangela eziyisisekelo. Amaphoyisa awakaqiniseki ukuthi ukuhlaselwa kuhlobene noma kuhlobene namaqembu ezigelekeqe, futhi uphenyo luyaqhubeka.<\/p>\n

Iziphathimandla kulindeleke ukuthi zinikeze izibuyekezo ezengeziwe njengoba uphenyo luqhubeka kanye njengoba imizamo yokuthuthukisa ukuphepha ezindaweni ezithintekile iqina.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
