A Kaduna-based human rights activist, Shehu Sani, on Wednesday dismissed claims by the Joint Military Task Force in Maduguri that it has killed the leader of Boko Haram sect, Abubakar Shekau.

Sani further challenged the Nigerian military to produce the body of the presumed late leader of the sect to the public as proof.

saengine: SA troops destroy rebel tank in Goma, DRC. The fight has begun

http://www.news24.com/Africa/News/UN-troops-fight-in-DRC-after-civilians-die-20130823-2

Goma - United Nations troops in the Democratic Republic of Congo went into action on Friday to battle M23 rebels after at least four civilians were killed in clashes near the flashpoint city of Goma, a UN spokesperson said.

Late Thursday, shells hit the outskirts of Goma, killing a woman and a child, and a rocket struck the nearby village of Kanyaruchinya, killing two and injuring nine others.

The civilians were victims of fighting that has erupted sporadically since mid-July between M23 and the regular army in a region 20km north of Goma, a city of one million people, ending a truce of about two months.

Military spokesperson Prosper Basse told UN-sponsored Radio Okapi that troops of the UN mission in the country (Monusco) were "henceforth engaged alongside the FARDC (regular army)" to deal with the threat.

Leaders meet

South African artillery forces in a new UN intervention brigade, authorised in March to take the offensive against armed movements, destroyed a rebel T55 tank stationed near Kibati, about 20km from Goma, according to the UN.

President Jacob Zuma, whose SA National Defence Force has committed 1 345 men to the UN brigade, met in Luanda on Friday with DR Congo President Joseph Kabila and Angola's Jose Eduardo dos Santos to discuss the insurgency.

Dos Santos said the instability threatened "the peace and security of the whole region".

Three months ago, Monusco declared a protection zone with a perimeter of 30 kilometres around Goma and the nearby strategic town of Sake "to prevent this sort of atrocity by M23 against civilian populations", spokesperson Basse said.

CraigB:

The group cited local sources who warned it was impossible to tell where weapons provided by the UK to help protect Shell eventually ended up.
‘It is common knowledge that soldiers and policemen sell arms to people who need them at give-away price,’ said one.

6 231. (See table 4 below for the total number of reported cases of firearmrelated
crimes between 1994 and 1998.)
The increase in the theft and negligent loss of firearms from private owners
is higher than the official number reported. There is underreporting of these
crimes, since firearm owners fear that they could be declared unfit to
possess a firearm if it were proven that the loss of the firearm was through
negligence on their behalf. South African data shows an increase between
1994 and 1998, from 14 460 firearms to 20 682 firearms, respectively, in the

number of illegal firearms recovered by the illegal firearm units. (See table
5 below for the number of firearms retrieved between 1996 and 1998.)
The total number of ammunition seized by the illegal firearm units is also a
useful indicator of the increase in the number of firearms. (See table 6 below
for the total seizure of ammunition by the SAPS between 1994 and 1998.)
Other lesser sources of firearms for the illicit market in South Africa include
the illegal imports of firearms, and those remaining after international
hunting expeditions. There are no statistics available on the extent of these
sources.


Firearms also flow through
South Africa to regions of conflict. The flow of firearms from Mozambique
to the Great Lakes Region, for example, fuels the civil wars there.

In the South African context, most of these firearms end up in the hands of
criminals.

As mentioned previously, there is an increase in crimes involving
firearms. Vehicle hijackings increased from 6 683 in 1995 to 15 111 in 1998,
an increase of 12.6%. But the shock is the 24.1% increase in truck hijacking
over the same period: in 1995, there were 1 695 reported cases and, in 1998,
5 773. Firearms were used in the majority of these hijackings, and handguns
are the most frequently used firearms in vehicle hijackings. (See table 3
with details about the crimes accounted for under robbery with aggravating
circumstances between 1994 and 1998.)
There has also been an increase in robberies with firearms in the last few
years. These include cash-in-transit robberies and bank robberies. Statistics
indicate an increase from 51 005 robberies with a firearm in 1996, to 69 501
in 1998, excluding attempted robberies. Again, the firearms favoured for
robbery are handguns, except in the case of cash-in-transit robbery, where
assault rifles are the weapon type preferred by criminals.
The incidence of the negligent use of a firearm is also showing an upward
trend. This is evident in the increase in the number of incidents of the
negligent handling of a firearm, the firing of a firearm in a municipal area
and the pointing of a firearm.
Figures for attacks on farms and smallholdings also showed an increase
from 1997 to 1998. In 1997, 66.1% of all the attacks on farms and
smallholdings were committed with firearms, with a handgun again most
frequently used by criminals. In gang violence in the different provinces,
drive-by shootings are on the increase and, most recently, the eliminating of
witnesses awaiting appearances in court cases involving gangsters. From
these different statistics it is therefore only too apparent that the increased
availability of firearms for criminal use is having an ever-increasing effect
on crimes involving firearms.
Although the smuggling of firearms into and through South Africa by
criminals and organised crime syndicates continues, large-scale smuggling
for political reasons has decreased dramatically since the first democratic
elections in 1994. Joint operations between the Mozambican police and the
SAPS have been successful in destroying hundreds of tons of weapons and
ammunition inside Mozambique, preventing them from being smuggled


TCP SERIES: VOLUME I I I
into South Africa. However, crossborder smuggling is still a real threat and
the police remain alert to smugglers and organised crime rings dealing in
weapons. The porous borders between South Africa and its neighbours are
difficult to police. For instance, military weapons that went missing from
the Lesotho Army base during the SADC intervention in Lesotho in 1998
could find their way into the hands of criminals in South Africa.
Internal sources of illegal firearms in South Africa
The identification of sources of illegal firearms internal to the country and
the gaining of control over them are among the most important tasks to be
addressed, if firearm-related crime is to be curbed in South Africa. Within
South Africa, major sources of arms currently fuelling the illicit market result
from the theft or loss of state-controlled firearms; the theft or loss of firearms
owned by defence force and police service members (200 000 weapons);
firearms lost by or stolen from civilians (150 000 weapons); and firearmsmuggling
(quantity of weapons unknown). Other sources of firearms,
although minor, include the illegal imports of firearms and those left by
international hunters as part payment for the hunt or as a gift to the outfitter.
Stolen State Firearms
State-controlled firearms include all those under the control of the SANDF,
the SAPS and any government or provincial department to which firearms
are assigned. Thefts from state armouries are often well-organised and
usually carried out with the assistance of a person working inside the
armoury or one with knowledge of its security procedures.
In the Western Cape, the armed theft of firearms and ammunition from
police stations is emerging as a new trend. Such thefts include assault rifles,
pistols, ammunition and other police equipment. From January to June
1999, 38 assault rifles, 24 shotguns and 32 9mm pistols were stolen from
police stations in the Western Cape. It is believed that gangs and vigilante
groups are responsible for these robberies, using the stolen weapons for the
ongoing drug and gang wars on the Cape Flats.
The SAPS and SANDF are armed with firearms as a result of the nature of
their work – making them targets for criminals in search of firearms. In

224 police officials were killed on and off duty, many believed to

Mr I-just-discovered-caviar-today. The same monkey that celebrated a useless ceasefire not too long ago. As I was, indeed.

chris365:

still i continue to prove how ignorant and stup1d you are

so now i just discovered caviar cos i exposed your stupid1ty ehn? what an 1diot

an ignorant f00l that thinks caviar is only meant for the rich.

admit it boy. you are a poor person who thinks it's still an expensive food. how can caviar annoy a pauper when he craves it. am done with you

as you were... an 1diot

agaugust: .

half a million illegal guns are in south africa as smuggled, lost, or stolen weapons. sorrow, tears, and blood

CraigB:

Proving my stuïidity by always responding after I log off.

Proving my stüpidity by saying: "I have proved your stüpidy.

Sure, Mr Caviar. Lots of substance in all your comments.

They ooze substance and aren't empty at all. You're almost 2 degrees above monkeydom. Only that's just my wish.

You even don't realise the fit-for-paupers caviar is vegetarian. Never mind the actual phrase which you still prove to not be fit enough to understand. Now you prove that you don't even know what caviar is.

Not that I blame you. You're Naai-gerian.

Even Möet & Chandom has been made accessible to you by South Africa.

CraigB:

Caviar will never make sense to a pauper.

chris365:

hmm! so you quickly ran to google for help as usual to rescue yourself after an unguarded utterance ehn. . ignorant little boy just proved my point exactly.

now let me rephrase your own comment


yet you finally agree that it actually does. cos his crave helped made it affordable.

wrong phrase from an empty head who never understood what he used as a phrase

case closed.. you are an 1diot .

CraigB:

As you have so desperately wished and dreamed you could show by producing an article confirming our soldiers selling these, as they do in Naai-geria.

Lovely.

agaugust:

200,000 guns are missing from south african government armoury. whether sold by your amred forces or stolen while your police and army were sleeping drunk with koeldrank, we dont care, all we know is that 200,000 guns were illegally removed from the hands of your stupid soweto police or army and landed in the hands of criminals. fact.

you enjoy posting nigerian shell petroleum story, so i enjoy posting your own country's own story too.

learn one lesson today, nobody has the monopoly of throwing s..h..i..t at other people, they can surely kick you back.....and we will !

.

CraigB:

No idïot. It is a bloory saying. you keep
Exposing yourself. Nothing has been admitted. Caviar costs about £5000 a kilo. Naai-gerian monkeys claim they can afford caviar now. Please don't embarrass yourself.

Case closed indeed. Close long before you even opened your mouth.

CraigB:

Caviar will never make sense to a pauper.

chris365:

oh common.. don't change the subject. your phrase is as flawed as your thinking.


and now you want to tell me it's expensive and also affordable for the poor, which was my own point

how will it not make sense to a pauper when his crave brought a cheaper version.

you were just too ignorant to know how wrong you used it. wow! google is really helpful for some people o

so, as you were... an idiot

CraigB:
You've learnt a new phrase and discovered news food. Accept it and go impress other people in Onitsha.
Case closed indeed. Close long before you even opened your mouth.

--//

Once again: all this is caviar to you, as you keep proving the point.

chris365:

no my dull friend.. i have thought you a new thing today and am sure that now that you know you can have a taste for less than $10, you'll thank me in your heart

stop using the word wrongly please cos there's definitely no level of class in your comments. i've exposed your ignorance and it will hunt you to your grave

CraigB:

Hahaha - caviar costs &10 in Naai-geria? This is getting amusing.

Perfect. You see. Next time someone insults you and says: "I won't bother explaining. It will be like caviar to you", you now get the insult. But if you keep insisting that caviar costs $10, the person will say: "See? What did I say?"


The person will complain that explaining caviar to a pauper is futile.

It's like explaining the colour red to a blind person.

-----

You have amused me today.

chris365:

what an 1diot . you recently quoted the cheaper recipe for caviar that's meant for the average man, am telling you the prize and it amazes you? you're an amusement now tell me who's ignorant

anyone who knows caviar will understand when you tell him you bought a $10 plate. DUHH like what i've been trying to tell you since. DUHH

only a bushman like you that only sees it in magazines and tv will cry the way you are doing now.

once again, don't use that phrase again cos cavier is never annoying to a common man.

agaugust:

fool, read your own source where it says

"Minutes of a meeting between Shell’s Malcolm Brinded and the Foreign Office in 2006 state that Shell was ‘keen to see HMG [Her Majesty’s Government] looking for further opportunities to assist Nigeria with Niger Delta security and governance'. "

thats what people call irrelevant, a story of year 2006 events. niger delta militancy ended many years ago, even a professional lawyer liar like @msauza cannot dispute that. foolish crayfish inside naija pot of pepper soup

now you have run out of ideas on what to publish...

dont divert attention, latest news is that south african army/ UN multinational forces have shelled and killed innocent civilians with artillery in Congo DRC city of Goma.

lets see you blame nigerian army for boko haram war zone death of civilians in Bama and Baga.

as i always said on this forum, its only a matter of time and patience, new events will make the truth pop out of south africa's sh..i..t hole
