It is withdrawn. Deputy Speaker, we had a terrible week, especially with our young women, starting from Uyinene. There is another young woman who was killed at the University of the Western Cape and the other one who lost her life last night after she has been brought heavily drugged from wherever she was taken. There are others that we are told in one of the University of Technology here were raped for four weeks eight of them. I will take an advice from Mr Whitfield that on these matters will have definitely to work together. We can't come here and talk politics on these matters. By the way, not only you, all other members and all other South Africans want to deal and really fight this scourge so that maybe one day the dream of a young woman walking alone without fear in the middle of the night is achieved in the Republic of South Africa. [Applause.]
To the parents, sisters, friends and colleagues of all those people who have been killed, we are amazed by their resilience and South Africans must really support them. This is an issue
which cannot be a once off thing. It is an issue that we need to put on our shoulders and work on it together.
Somebody came here and gave some statistics about the women raped, not tried and all that kind of stuff. One statistic that was not given is that in South Africa as we speak, we have 4 728 people that are doing a life sentence for the sexual offences.
Four thousand and twenty eight are doing life sentences. They are not just in prison. [Interjections.] Yes, it might not be enough, but something is being done. That is why we are inviting everybody to be part of this. Hon Groenewald spoke about special units. This is one special unit that we have brought back the Family Violence, Child Protection and Sexual Offence Family Child Unit, FCS, to deal with the family and the abuse of women matters. We shall forever accept those suggestions that make sense.
The problem that started on 2 September at Jeppe where South African Police, I repeat, were dealing with criminality. You will pardon South African Police. We don't deal with xenophobia
or South Africans and all that. We deal with criminality. We deal with criminals. We arrest them and only know them when we begin to follow the procedure, then we know what nationality one is. We don't look at them and say they look like Zimbabweans so we are arresting you. No, we don't do that. We look at the criminal, arrest him and then it happens to be either a foreign national or a South African national. So, for us it has nothing to do with xenophobia. It has all to do with criminality.
Then it happened that the shops were burnt around the precinct of the Glenville Station. We moved into that street where all the shops without exception were burnt there. Clearly, there were South African shops like Shoprite, Jet and U Save that were burnt. They were all first looted and then burnt. When you go to Germiston KFC was burnt, although it is not a South African shop. So, this told us that we are dealing with criminality and it is not true that those shops were selected to be burnt. Every shop that was there was burnt. It led us arresting those people, who committed that crime and up to this point people who we have arrested are 639, including yesterday where 15 were arrested in Thokoza for continuing burning the shops.
However, going back to Mr Whitfield, I would like us to have some discussions because there are things that are not very much factual. One thing about the Intelligence is this myth that exists. That the Intelligence is not working - that is a myth. There are so many things that were stopped before they happened here in South Africa because of the Intelligence. Otherwise, there could have been a lot of trouble. So, even now the places that were attacked are less than the places where there was prevention.
We got the information that there were going to be attacks' in Soshanguve, Norkem Park, Primerose, Eden Park, Kagiso, Dawn Park, Midrand, Spruitview, and Alberton. All the attacks' were stopped before they could happen. That is the work of the Intelligence. {Applause.] It is not very much correct to say the Intelligence is not functioning.
I will emphasise the question of working together. However, the question of fake news somebody spoke about that. Maybe for me, it will be an opportune to say ... I want to stand here and thank the SAPS men and women in blue. [Applause.] It is
unfortunate that people would not see their work - day and night, long hours, stopping, preventing and protecting South Africans. We are saying South African Police did a good job. Many of them are good men and women. Few of them are rotten apples like all other communities where we have some rotten apples. However, here in South Africa we have good police' who are overworked sometimes but working very well. [Applause.] So, I stand here, as a Minister of Police, with many members saying bravo to the men and women in blue. [Applause. Chairperson, maybe just to respond a little bit to Shenge ...
IsiZulu:
...Sokwalisa ngicabanga ukuthi kwaba nenkingana endleleni uma silungisela lo mcimbi obe uzoba eGoli, ehostela. Inkinga ebekhona ukuthi uma sithola umbiko wokuthi kunomonakalo. Saya khona siyozama ukulungisa izinto esasithole ukuthi okunye abantu ababentshontshile babaleka bangena ehostela. Kwanomsindo ke wokuthi abantu ababentshontshile abahlala emahostela nabantu abawuhlanga oluthile. Sasingayanga ngalokho. Sasiye ukuyolungisa.Sibheke ukuthi sikwazi ukubuyisana nokuthi
lungabhebhetheki udlame maduze nezindawo lapho kwakwenzeke khona.
Uma sifika ngolwesiBili saba neqoqo lekomidi elalizolungisela ukuthi kube nomcimbi owawuzoba khona ngeSonto. Umcimbi owawubizwa ngeMbizo la sizoxoxa khona, owawungazukuba umcimbi kaNgqongqoshe wezamaPhoyisa. Abantu esasilungisa nabo ikakhulu beholwa yiziNduna. INduna eyayihola phambili ngubaba uMhlongo neNduna uMvelase noZwane, abathi bazocela kube khona eminye iMinyango kahulumeni ukuze baphakamise izinto ezizoxoxwa nohulumeni. Bayibala iMinyango, uMnyango wamaPhoyisa, uMnyango weZokuthuthukiswa Komphakathi, uMnyango Wezasekhaya, uMnyango Wezobulungiswa noMnyango kaHulumeni Wokubambisana kanye Nezindaba Zezendabuko, kwalungiswa ke, watshelwa noNdunankulu nathi sonke.
Kwathi ngoLweSine ebusuku ngathola ucingo oluvela kungangeZwelakhe uBhejane ephuma esiqiwini ethi: Akathandanga indlela ekulungiselwe ngayo ngokuthi yena angathinthwa, kusetshenzwe neziNduna. Ngakho ke saxoxisana kakhulu
noNgangezwelakhe savumelana ukuthi kuyofanele uhoxiswe lo mcimbi ukuze uphindwe ulungiselelwe ngendlela okuyiyona.
Umuntu engakhuluma naye eqenjini le Nkatha okungubaba uGwala ngamtshela lolu daba ukuthi alusaqhubeki. Savumelana ukuthi asisezukuwuqhuba umcimbi njengohulumeni sesizobuye ziwulungiselele. Ngithuka lapho ke uma ngivuka ngeSonto ekuseni, sengitshelwa engisebenza nabo ukuthi ngiyazi yini ukuthi umcimbi uyaqhubeka na. Ngithi mina angazi, ngiseThekwini. Ngigcine umcimbi ungaqhubeki.
Kwasekuthiwa uMntwana kaPhindangene uyaya ukuyokhuluma kulomcimbi, okungasewona okahulumeni ngoba ngehora lesibili ngoLwesiHlanu ngakhipha incwadi eya kubona bonke abantu ababe zoya kulowomcimbi ukuthi siwuhoxisile siyobuye siwulungisele. Kungokwazi kwethu ke ukuthi lowo mcimbi kwakungasewona okahulumeni. Ukuthi ke wawusungene kanjani, wawusuze kanjani yilokho ke engithi kukona mina angiwazi ngoba ngokukahulumeni wahoxiswa lowo mcimbi. Isimo ke sinjalo kuze kube ukuthi yilokho okwenzeke izolo. Umcimbi ngiyaphinda benkungasewona okahulumeni. Wonke umuntu wazile.
Angivamisile ukuxoxa noShenge, ngiyaye ngixoxe nobaba uGwala kube uyena oxhumana noShenge. UShenge wayebhalile incwadi encane, ngayithola laphaya. Ngathi mina emcimbini kahulumeni bonke abaholi bangeza. Lokhu kwakungaphambi kokuthi ngithole umyalezo ovela eMbubeni ukuthi izocela ukuthi kubuye kuthi ukulungiselelwa kancane lokho. Uhlehle kanjalo ke. Ngiyaphinda futhi ngiyasho ukuthi umcimbi owaqhubeka ngeSonto kwangungasewona umcimbi ulungiselelwe uhulumeni. Kwakungasewona umcimbi ongathi uCele emi la athi uyawazi. Kwakungumcimbi engangitshele wonke umuntu owayewazi ukuthi uyahlehla. Leyo ndaba ngifuna icace kanjalo. Akusikho ukuthi yingoba kunokudelelana okukhona, yingoba iqiniso linjalo. Kwahamba kanjalo. Lokho engikushoyo ngizokusho noma yikuphi. Lokhu engikushoyo yiloku engakukhuluma neMbube, ngakukhuluma nomholi we-IFP. Ngakukhuluma nabaholi bakahulumeni ababekhona sawuhlehlisa kanjalo umcimbi. Ngiyabonga kakhulu. [Ihlombe.]
