DESPITE being found hiding in thehome of murdered Greytown build­ing contractor Joe Herholdt, thethree accused pleaded not guilty tothe charges before Judge Rishi See­gobin in the Pietermaritzburg High

Court last Wednesday.Nineteen year old Sifiso Phungulu,

18 year old Lungisani Zulu and 20year old Lindokuhle Mbese denied incourt that they had killed him onFebruary 18 this year.

Giving evidence, Mbongeni Nxu­malo, a security guard with Field Se­curity, said that on that day, he andtwo colleagues had gone to the Her­holdt house after being alerted toa burglary there.

On arrival, he was told that therewere “still people in the house.”

He entered and found Herholdtdead on the floor where he had been

tied up with rope. One of his col­leagues said he had seen a man runinto the bedroom.

In the bedroom, Nxumalo said “wesaw a leg protruding from under oneof the beds.” Zungu was draggedout and the two other accused werefound by the police ­ one hiding be­hind a wardrobe and Mbese underanother bed.

Phungulu submitted a plea expla­nation that he was present in thehouse, but had not aligned himselfwith the actions of the others. Mbesesaid that he had not shared a com­mon purpose with his co­accused

but was there and saw them assaultand stab Herholdt. Zungu remainedsilent.

The State admitted that Phungu­lu had previously worked for Her­holdt and had told his co­accusedthat he had lots of money, and ifhe would not employ them, theyshould rob him.

The accused allegedly armedthemselves with a knife and screw­driver and approached the buildingcontractor in his house. They tiedhim up and when he did not produceany money allegedly beat andstabbed him.

“Whilst the police are consti-tutionally obliged to ensurethat thesecurityofeachandev-ery person’s property is se-cured, it is of paramount im-portance to take note that thecommunity must also exercisea certain degree of caution andcare of their personal belong-ings in order to assist the policein avoiding petty thefts.

Theofficeof theClusterCom-mander hereby appeals to thecommunity to take priority insafeguarding their householdand personal belongings, andthereby refraining from expos-ing any valuable items whichmight tempt thieves from ex-ploiting the unsuspecting com-

munity negligence in that re-gard.

Theofficeof theClusterCom-mander has taken note of thereport regarding the burglar-iesatTholinhlanhlaSchoolandthis office views this matter ina very serious light. Hence, theoffice of the Station Command-erwill be investigating themat-ter further with the view of es-tablishing where the possiblegapswereduring the investiga-tion in this matter and to pre-vent any repeat.

DICTIONARYdefinition of a fence is “a bar-rier for enclosing, bounding or protecting.”Not by the wildest stretch of imaginationdoes this section of the infamous King Ed-ward Park fence (vicinity Duff and CarterStreets)evenremotely fallwithinthedefini-tion.

One wonders if Umvoti Municpality re-ceived a discount on the cost of R2 and halfmillion rand for this particular section of‘non-fence’ but after all, the contractor diderect those brick pillars for support - hope-fully included in the two plus million rand.

Residents in the area have told the Grey-

town Gazette that this is proving to be aneasy access to and from Duff, Carter andthen Ente Sreets.It has also been pointed out that the rate

of petty thieving has seriously increased inthis vicinity.

HERMANNSBURG musicians’ outstanding talentshave once again received recognition at the presti­gious South African Music Teachers’ Associationprize winners’ dinner held on 22 October.Schools from the entire midlands region were rep­resented at the gala occasion, where invitationsto attend are only extended to those who achievedistinctions in their Royal Schools (ABRSM), Trini­ty Colleges and/or UNISA music examinations.

No fewer than six of our musicians were invitedto attend this year, with four receiving special rec­ognition at the dinner. Chantal Jonker receivedthe ABRSM junior vocal award and medal for thehighest distinction, while Rhonda Christiansenand Laura Zick each received the ABRSM interme­diate vocal award and shared the medal for thehighest distinction. Zanda Isaacs received theABRSM senior vocal award. Jordan Pope andMeike Meyer both achieved distinctions in theirrespective examinations and were welcomed asgrowing musical talents.

Zanda Isaacs followed in the footsteps of two

former Hermannsburg head girls, Nadia Ortmannand Daniella Dedekind, when she was awardedthe Sheila Harland vocal award for achieving thehighest distinction, on average, in the senior divi­sion of Royal Schools, Trinity Colleges and UNISAcombined. High honours indeed and well­de­served ­ we congratulate all our musicians on theirpraiseworthy achievements.

In more choral news, we congratulate eight ofour top vocalists, Rhonda Christiansen, JordanPope, Meike Meyer, Monika Lucht, Laura Zick, Dan­ielle Schweiger, Rupert Meyer and Stephan Küsel,on being selected to sing in the KZN Youth Choirfollowing the recent selection auditions. The choirhopes to go to Poland in 2015, which will be ahugely enriching experience for our choristers.

Our U13 cricketers played against Wartburg lastweek. Wartburg batted first, making 90 runs intheir 20 overs for the loss of seven wickets. Her­mannsburg replied with a cracking 22 runs in threeovers before the match unfortunately had to becalled off due to lightning and heavy rain.
