SIMELANE ASSAULTED AT STATE ATTORNEY'S IN PRETORIA: CLAIM

WARNING: THE FOLLOWING POST CONTAINS MATERIAL CLEARLY STILL UNDER IINVESTIGATION BY THE STATE.

AS SUCH POST OR PURPOSE FOR THE WRITING THEREOF CANNOT BE PURPORTING OR EVEN BE PURPORTED  TO BE MAKING ANY PREMATURE CONCLUSIONS OR FINDINGS PREJUDICIAL TO ANY PARTY. OPINION OVER THE CURRENT CLIMATE OF STATE-SPONSORED VIOLENCE UNDER THE LEADERSHIP OF MR JACOB ZUMA AND IMMEDIATE PREDECESSORS IS NOT UNINTENTIONAL THOUGH, EVEN AS IT COMES IN AN UNAPOLOGETIC MANNER. HOWEVER, THESE ARE OPINIONS OF WRITER AND WRITER ONLY: NEVER BHEKI SIMELANE'S OR ANYBODY ELSE MENTIONED IN THIS POST.  IF THERE IS A PURPOSE FOR THIS POST, IT IS THAT THE STATE OFFICIALS HANDLING MATTERS OF VIOLENCE AGAINST INNOCENT CITIZENS EVEN SENIOR CITIZENS LIKE SIMELANE WHO FOUGHT FOR SOUTH AFRICA'S DEMOCRACY SHOULD TAKE SUCH MATTERS SERIOUSLY AND NEVER BE SEEN TO BE SWEEPING SUCH UNDER THE CARPET.

South Africa is still a backward society despite the end of apartheid 19 years ago; and the leadership of Jacob Zuma is not helping the situation either, I declare!

Qualified backward not because I wish to be anti-my-own-land or that the people or their government is in fact intrinsically backward... no, that is not what I am saying.  But state-sponsored violence by the Mandela-, Mbeki- and now Zuma-regimes are common knowledge and nobody should even begin to start it with me that I am being imaginative.

Remember the bizzare but gory incident of mowing down workers in Marikana not so many moons ago?

Remember the alleged fatal dragging by self-same police of a man behind a truck for a minor infraction of traffic rules hardly a fortnight ago?

Seen my previous post where I source the origins of South Africa's current violence spear-headed by the state under Mr Zuma back to his intelligence management of exile camps?

Once again coming back to more recently or a  decade ago to be precise, I myself was subjected to physical assault by an entire brigadier general of the South African National Defence Force for "the crime" of awaiting a complementary salute when I stood on the latter's impromptu office orders at his notorius Army College of Promotion Throgh Fornication for well-connected military officers under the commander-in-chiefship of Mr Jacob Zuma and predecessors Mbeki and Mandela.

(Year 2013 Update) of Mr Eddie Drost, from a colonel who in 2001 was clueless about how to salute back a lieutenant colonel from his own office orders. since subsequently promoted by Jacob Zuma to a general ALONGSIDE THE MANDELA-RELATIVE ERSTWHILE MAJOR WHO, WITH DROST'S FULL KNOWLEGE back in in 2000-2001, was first promoted to 'lieutenant colonel' solelly through fornicating in Drost's military unit with Drost own fellow College lecturer and underling, one then Lieutenant Colonel Raymond Lentsoe. WHAT IS DROST'S OWN SUBSEQUENT  PROMOTION? Jacob Zuma's "Thank-you-Drost for protecting My fellow-Nguni Great Leader  Mandela's Cousin Zini against'impudent' non-Nguni Phiri" who dared raise the alarm over Eddie Drost's practice of encouraging prostitution in the officer corps of the Republic of South Africa? Whether male of female, "Prostitutes in High Places" for South Africa's officer corps is a clearly long-term but devastaging security breach, if not clear-cut national sabotage by means of allowing officers under Drost's command to be promoted to generalcy with neither honour nor hard work. Small wonder mercenaries have been known to come and go through our airspace UNDETECTED (under both Zuma and Mbeki) only to end up going to destabilize other African countries! No wonder Boeremag bombs fly at will around South Africa because Jacob Zuma's blue-eyed boy Drost is (with Zuma's blessing and concomitant  victimization of Phiri who now has been forced to sit in a shack in Mamelodi (per Year 2013), continues to produce officers who when the enemy attacks our Republic one day, they will look for sex, rather than their weapons. Anyway, even the commander in chief, who so badly wanted and subsequently acquired a reelection in Mangaung December 2012 that he is busy chasing off  the Great Ruling ANC's children who, like Julius Malema, dare question Zuma's apparent regime which is apparently obsessed with liquor and easy if illicit sex partners, is reportedly looking for the same thing all over the world instead of helping the whistle-blower Phiri escape the lies, the assaults and the victimization by the Drosts of Zuma's questionable capability to command South Africa's modern Army; and instead of defending other whistleblowers against corruption like the elderly Bheki Simelane who, if current report by same is true, has been subjected to physical  assasult in place no lesser than The State Attorney's Office in South Africa's capital, Pretoria!

The man (Drost) who falsely charged me in 2001 over and above assaulting me is still working with Mr Jacob Zuma's support while I the whistle-blower am forever suffering a suspension and a life under threats of further violence against me, all for my daring to blow the whistle on Zuma-state-sponsored corruption in the South African Army.

But this is all griss for the mill, isn't it, for a man Zuma who has as of his forties in exile been one of the kingpins of violence and torture for all those who opposed the Nguni (particulalry Zuma-Master-Mandela's Xhosa speaking tribe). And if you missed those videos here I kindly repeat them for you so that you understand why under this man South Africa has become so intolerably violent

SIMELANE'S FATE HAD ALWAYS BOTHERED PHIRI

Even though I had always known that this is a violent society (and so sponsored by the Zuma leadership style in the nation)...

Even though I had always agonized about Simelane's safety where he seems to be winning his court opponents hands down by means of his intellectual muscles...

Even though I myself had been (over and above the assault by the Army Brigadier General Drost in 2001) been invaded in my home by six heavily armed soldiers ordered by Mandela cousin Templeton Temba Matanzima ['per Jacob Zuma's express orders that Phiri should be assassinated for exposing corruption in the South African Army spearheaded by Mandela's relatives (or so-self-styled) like Brigadier General Zini Bobelo']...

I had always hoped the day shall never dawn when I will in fact hear Simelane's life has been threatened by violence for his beliefs that corruption in the in the South African Army and elsewhere in the Republic should be exposed.

But having read what details Simelane could offer in Year 2013 of 

ON ITS ‘CRIMES AND COURTS’, the IOL on-line news agency reports per title “State attorney probed over ‘assault’ on MK veteran” (dated 22 July 1012) AS FOLLOWS:

Comment on this story

The Director-general in the Department of Justice and Constitutional Development is investigating an allegation that one of its state attorneys attacked MK veteran Bheki Simelane during a meeting in his office.

Apart from the assault, Simelane – who has been in a six-year battle to get political amnesty – alleges that state attorney Ben Minnaar also threatened to withdraw state-funded legal fees in two of his current court battles and to cancel his Truth and Reconciliation Commission process altogether.

Simelane is the father of axed National Prosecuting Authority head Menzi Simelane.

Justice director-general Nonkululeko Sindane took up Simelane’s matter after he wrote to the office of the president and deputy president, the chief justice, the judge president of the Labour Appeal Court, the secretary of defence, the secretary of military veterans and Sindane, reporting his alleged assault.

Department spokeswoman Phumla Sekhonyane would not comment on the allegations of assault on Simelane, but confirmed that Sindane had met him and his legal representatives, and that there was a pending investigation.

“The director-general made certain commitments, which includes the further handling of Mr Simelane’s long-standing matters and the allegations of assault,” she said.

Simelane had allegedly gone to see Minnaar to arrange a date for a cost order, which he was granted in 2009 as part of an access to information case he had launched against the Natal Law Society.

He asked the society to provide him with the documentation relating to him being struck off the roll, which he said needed to be presented before the amnesty committee considering his application. The costs order could not be granted at the time of the initial order, as the documentation Simelane had asked for first needed to be provided.

The origin of Simelane’s political amnesty bid dates back 28 years, when he allegedly defrauded paralysed car accident victim Martha Mkhize of a R50 000 payout from the Road Accident Fund. He was struck off the roll of attorneys at the time.

In 2007, after appealing against the refusal of his amnesty application, Simelane was granted a new amnesty committee.

But before he could appear before it, he needed the information from the law society. He alleges that Minnaar assaulted him so badly that he ended up in hospital.

“I want to finalise this access to information case. But we are being stopped from finishing the matter,” he told The Sunday Independent this week.

“Six years have already passed and nothing has happened. These are all the things that I need to finalise before I die. I need to get my life in order.

“I am now waiting for her to come back to me. She said she would come back to me after having a preliminary investigation done by the chief litigation officer, Kay Pillay,” Simelane said this week.

A Pretoria police spokeswoman, Sergeant Ann Poortman, confirmed that a case of assault was being investigated at Pretoria Central Police Station.

“There are still some elements of the investigation that are outstanding before it can be handed over to the director of public prosecutions for a decision on prosecution,” said Poortman.

Sunday Independentwhat assault he allegedly suffered in the hands of this one Ben Minnaar, it is apt that we give you some some publication of this matter when it happened and was, so to speak, as fresh as Year 2013 when the alleged assault happened.
