Klerksdorp Record, Klerksdorp - A group of balaclava-wearing matrics who caused a ruckus at THS, are lucky to be allowed to write their prelim exams.

This group, comprising of 13 matrics, were hauled over the coals after a video went viral on social media showing their unruly behaviour towards a teacher. The learners were unhappy about the school’s decision not to have a forty days celebration and went ahead disrupting school despite being forbidden to do something.

Klerksdorp Rekord, Klerksdorp - Die onlangse voorval waar ‘n vermeende dief doodgeskiet is toe hy probeer het om ‘n jetski te steel, het baie vrae laat ontstaan oor die regsaspekte van die saak.

Die AfriForum-buurtwag in Songloed het op 21 Augustus ’n opleidingsgeleentheid oor regsaspekte vir die plaaslike gemeenskap aangebied. Marnus Kamfer, AfriForum se regs-en-risiko-bestuurder het die opleiding aangebied. Die opleiding was gebaseer op die vrae: “Wanneer mag ek skiet?” en “Ek het geskiet, wat nou?”
