Crime › SA Police Swoop On Suspected Nigerian Drug Dealer In Viral Take Down - PICTURES by RandDigital(op): 8:20pm On Dec 16, 2024
A recently surfaced video of a multi-disciplinary team taking down a suspected Nigerian drug dealer is making the rounds online. Law enforcement was filmed moving in on the suspect sitting in a parked car in what appeared to be an industrial area.

The video was posted on the @MDNnewss X page on Friday, 13 December 2024. According to the caption, the operation happened in the Gauteng province.

"In a targeted operation in Pretoria (Tshwane) West, law enforcement officers arrested a Nigerian national suspected of drug dealing."

The 39-second clip shows a team comprising the Tshwane Metro Police Department (TMPD) Drug Unit swooping on the occupant of a Toyota Fortuna.

Several women, including TMPD Commissioner Yolanda Faro, are in the leading group, supported by officers armed with high-calibre weapons. Faro, a female officer and a male officer in civilian clothing are seen approaching the vehicle from the left — hitting the window as they bark orders for the suspect to get out.

"Open this door! Open it! Get out, get out!" the officers command. The suspect emerges seconds later before cops order him to lie down facedown on the floor. The man is then placed in handcuffs while his car is searched.

The clip garnered almost 490,000 views since it was published with over 4,000 comments.

The Hermanus Festive Lights Project officially kicked off on 26th November 2024, brightening up the scenic seaside town for the holiday season. But this year, the lights have grabbed attention for a completely unexpected reason. Thanks to a cheeky photoshopped image, the town’s festive greeting has gone viral on social media, and the results are utterly hilarious.

Hermanus is a gem of a town nestled along the Western Cape coastline. Known for its world-class whale watching, stunning beaches, and warm hospitality, it’s a favourite destination for both South Africans and international travellers. Its natural beauty, coupled with a rich cultural vibe, makes it a must-visit spot year-round, but especially during the festive season when the town sparkles with holiday cheer.

This year, however, a twist on the town’s festive lights has everyone talking.

A cleverly altered photo shows the “Welcome To Hermanus” sign seemingly missing the letter “M”, transforming the warm greeting into “Welcome To Her A-nus”. The doctored image is being widely shared across social media, evoking waves of laughter from all who see it.

The post has gone viral, with comments rolling in from every corner of the internet. “I haven’t laughed this hard in ages,” one user shared, while another joked, “I might just take a trip to ‘Her A-nus’ for the holidays!” It’s moments like these that remind us of the joy found in simple, harmless humour.

While the real sign remains intact and properly lit, the laughter it has inspired is very real – and arguably just as festive as the lights themselves. Some South Africans even speculate that this burst of viral fame could boost visits to Hermanus as curious travellers come to see the lights that sparked so much joy online.

And that’s what makes this story so good. At a time when the world can feel heavy, a bit of silliness has reminded us all to smile.

South Africa and get the record straight. As you know we already don't like your gay constitution.
So you want SA police to go down an abandoned mine whose terrain they're unfamiliar with, which has been declared structurally unstable and also alledgedly has hundreds of armed gang members down there who know the terrain better than SAPS?

What's the difference between the cops going down there and the illegal miners resurfacing on their own? Either way they're still gonna face arrest so they should save the cops and SA the trouble.

Chris Brown's first of two concerts in South Africa went without a glitch on Saturday evening at the 94,000 seater FNB Stadium (Soccer City) in Johannesburg.

This despite a petition that had been brought forward by an anti-GBV group, Women for Change, to have the US artist banned from SA for past incidents of violence. The petition received over 50,000 signatures.

The second concert will hold on Sunday at the same venue.

Travel › Shoprite Test Drives Jet Ski Food Deliveries In South Africa - PICTURES by RandDigital(op):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CrF-VOAdq_8?si=3XXtBKEVjFs8Xgty

"Checkers will literally cross the ocean for you," was one response to a Checkers Sixty60 campaign in which a branded jet ski was seen making a grocery delivery.

Videos of a branded Checkers Sixy60 jet ski (part of the Shoprite Group Holdings) went viral, after it was spotted at the beach in Clifton, Cape Town last week delivering goods to a beachgoer.

An advert later spotted on social media showed the jet ski delivering ice lollies to a boat, with the delivery being so speedy that they hadn't melted.


Aqeela Jayy couldn't believe her eyes when she saw the jet ski.

"It's a flippen brilliant innovative plan if you ask me," she said.

Videos posted on social media garnered well over 1.6 million views, with many pleading with the retail giant to ensure the jet skis were launched before Boxing Day (December 26), which traditionally sees thousands of people flocking to the beach.


Rashied Mohammed Salie, who labelled the innovation as "world-class", said he would use the service every time he was at the beach if it was available.

"Swimming makes one hungry. I mean, how cool will it be to be in the ocean, a family member on the sand ordering you a cold beverage or food to eat and here comes the jet ski delivery man? I think it's brilliant marketing," said Salie.

One social media user commented that "Checkers clearly has money to waste", while others had lots of questions about how the system would work, and if it was real, when it would be rolled out.

"It's confusing because how on Earth will the driver of that jet ski locate your position in the water when there would be hundreds of people at beaches during the holidays, mostly the popular beaches in Clifton?" Monique Gedult asked.

Another questioned whether Checkers would be rolling out the innovative plan to beaches like Strandfontein, Monwabisi near Khayelitsha, as well as Muizenberg and Simonstown.

Others wanted to know whether swimming pools were included in the shop's plans.

Michelle Arendse liked the idea, but asked: "Would the delivery man go pick up the goods with his car, then have the jet ski loaded onto the roof of his vehicle, offload it, and drag it onto the beach for him to get into the water?

"It sounds like way too much trouble," Arendse said.

She also questioned what the delivery fee would be.

"Kudos to Checkers for their marketing, they clearly went all out. But, there is so much questions around this. The marketing screams 'I'll cross the ocean for you' and your fun in the sun, but, is it really worth it? Will it actually work?," questioned Arendse.

Matthew Titus questioned whether all delivery drivers would now need to add "able to swim" to their resumes when applying for the position.

"One thing about the Sixty60 initiative is that delivery is fast and super easy to do. I love the scooter vibes; I'm struggling to wrap my head around jet skis delivering groceries, though," said Titus.

Michail Adams, an ice cream seller at Camps Bay, said he would be disappointed should Checkers start delivering to beachgoers using jet skis since it might harm his small business.

"It's frustrating that big shops are taking business away from small traders," he said.


A disgruntled Adams said he struggled to secure his beach trading permit and relies on this income to support his family.

"I don't think they realise how hard we work to put food on the table," he added.

He noted that many people prefer ordering online due to the variety of options available.

"Of course, tourists will also choose to order online," he said.

Adams emphasised that visiting the beach should include a unique Cape Town experience, where people decide to buy from local traders like him.

One beach lover joked: "Next year Checkers will launch its helicopter to get your goods while you in an aeroplane."

On social media, users had a field day discussing what they would order while in the water.

Ice creams, fizzy drinks, pies, chocolates, chip and dip, biltong, slap chips, biscuits, peanuts and raisins and sunscreen were some of the preferred items on their list.

Joel Steenkamp said Checkers used the right time of the year to send a jet ski out.

"People are beaching, what better way to market your brand than using a jet ski. I love the idea. I really hope it gets rolled out though. Imagine the cool selfies we could take with the delivery man on his super cool jet ski," said Steenkamp.


Charl Bremmer said: "The message here is obviously that they are super fast with deliveries and that it's as fast as a jet ski. Everyone that uses the Sixty60 app knows how fast their delivery service is, so jet ski's is just showing off now. Brilliant though Checkers," said Bremmer.

Foreign Affairs › Trapped SA Illegal Miners Ask For Tomato Sauce And Mayonnaise - PICTURES by RandDigital(op):
A man who emerged from the disused mines at Stilfontein on Monday had a letter which conveyed several requests from the illegal miners holed up underground.

Some of the requested items in the long list in the letter included mayonnaise, washing powder, tomato sauce, beef, Koo canned beans, soap and deodorants (roll-on).

The letter seen by IOL stated that their relish had finished and therefore they were requesting beef and tinned fish.

The letter also stated that rice has been finished and they were requesting additional portions. The illegal miners also wrote that their paraffin supplies have been depleted and they were requesting more.

Last week, IOL reported that while food was being sent to the miners at Buffelsfontein goldmine in Stilfontein, the High Court in Pretoria found that the police were in breach of the court order which allowed the community, volunteers, and charitable organisations to provide essentials such as food and water to the miners.

This was after a community-based organisation, the Mining Affected Community in Action (Macua), again approached the court following Sunday’s ruling that the SA Police Service (SAPS) must for now allow miners at Stilfontein to immediately be supplied with food, water, and medication from the community and charitable organisations.

Macua, in an affidavit handed to court, said in spite of the SAPS being served with the court order, officials stationed at the Stilfontein Gold Mine refused to comply with the terms of the order.

Judge Nicolene Janse van Nieuwenhuizen said the SAPS was in breach of her order made on Sunday regarding the type and amount of food and other aid to be delivered to the miners. She ordered that the Sheriff be allowed to assist with the implementation of the order.

The applicant said that a community member physically served a copy of the order on a SAPS colonel who accepted receipt of the order but refused to acknowledge receipt of the court order in writing.

Judge Janse van Nieuwenhuizen was told that the order was also served to several other officials stationed at the Stilfontein Gold Mine; yet, they refused to comply with the terms of the court order.

Sabelo Mnguni, national administrator of Macua, said in an affidavit that the SAPS placed arbitrary limitations on the quantity of food that community members intended to lower down to the trapped miners, as well as the number of times food may be sent down.

Certain essential food items, including maize meal, canned fish, and soup, were also not allowed to be lowered down at all without any explanation.

The illegal miners, suspected to be around 4,000 and from neighbouring countries, have been been trapped underground since October fearing arrest from police who have barricaded all entry points to the abondoned gold mine.

Foreign Affairs › South Africa Launches Drones & 'Deportation Buses' Along the Border - PICTURES by RandDigital(op): 8:42am On Dec 13, 2024
The South African Department of Home Affairs and the Border Management Authority have launched new border drones, tech and ‘deportation buses' to combat an expected surge in illegal border crossings over the festive period.

This marks the first time these have been used in tackling the country’s porous borders and marks the start of what DHA minister Leon Schreiber calls a “dramatic” expansion of tech-driven solutions.

“Our commitment to digital transformation and embracing technology is absolute,” Schreiber said at the launch.

The first set of drones will specifically be deployed to five ports of entry throughout the festive period, the minister said, giving the department “eyes in the sky” to track and apprehend illegal immigrants.

December and January are the peak periods in terms of movement into and out of South African ports of entry, the department noted.

“No longer will it be the case that people can move around without us having eyes on them. We want to send a very clear message to people who want to violate South Africa’s emigration laws: for the very first time, you won’t even know that we are seeing you.

“We are above you, we are around you, and we are watching for infringements along the borderline,” he said.

In addition to the drones, the Department is also implementing the use of body cameras and so-called ‘deportation buses’.

The minister said the cameras will help clamp down on corruption and ensure the safety of officials, including border guards and the defence force.

The buses, meanwhile, will be out on the roads, transporting illegal immigrants caught crossing the border back over.

“We welcome any traveller, any investor, any tourist, any skilled person who will follow our laws and help us build South Africa. But that is different from people who violate our law and don’t want to comply with our rules,” the minister said.

“You will find we have a renewed commitment to enforcing the rule of law in South Africa. That is how you create a secure country.”

The minister noted that the buses have already deported the first group of 290 illegal miners back to Mozambique.

Schreiber said this was just the start of the BMA’s use of this technology and that South Africans should expect it to expand “dramatically” in the future.
