Fapla accused of killing a Natnibian

OSWALD SHIVUTE AT OSHAKATI

THREE Angolan Fapla soldiers have been arrested and are being held at Ondangwa after a Namibian citizen was shot and killed by Fapla soldiers in eastern Namibia on-Tuesday.

The incident was confirmed last night by the police chief of liaison and relations in the north, Chief Inspec-tor Josef Anghuwo. .

According to Anghuwo, the murder took place at Onghwiyu village in the K wanyama region. The name of the dead man is Noa Willem.

According to sources, there was a quarrel between the Namibian and the Aogolan soldiers.

The soldiers left for Angola and came back armed with rifles and allegedly started shooting undiscrimi-nately at a group of people. Willem was fatally injured.

NAMIBIAN President Sam Nujoma yesterday started a "familiarisation tour" of the eastern region. Above:

STAFF REPORTER

THE Council of Churches has been rocked by a scholarship fraud scandal following the discovery that students studying on CCN scholarships have two or three bursaries at the same time.

The SCholarships of at least 17 students have been tenni-nated with inunediate effect, and itis still possible thatotller students will lose their bursar-ies.

The scandal was fir.;t reported in this month's edition of CCN Messenger in an interview with CCN scholarship co-ordinator Alfred Kashume.

Kashume yesterday con-firmed that. those involved in the fraud include a number of high-ranking officials of the Namibia National Students Organisation (Nanso).

The students in question wete all full-time students studying for degrees and diplomas at colleges and universities in South Africa.

According to Kasbume, these .. tu dents benefited from CCN s& clarships while receiving bursaries from other organisa-tions at the same time.

They often received addi-tional bursaries from either the former Administrations for

Labour Promotions Fund or the Legal Assistence Centre.

To make matters worse, if one sponsor had paid the tui-tion or boarding fees, some students quite unlawfully cashed CCN cheques made out to universities for their own use.

Kashume explained that the CCN paid all boarding fees, tuition fees, book allowances and travel costs for its full-time students.

In addition, the students received pocket money twice a year - once in January and then again in July after the mid-year holidays.

Kashume showed little sympathy for the argument that CCN scholarships wete per-haps not adequate for students to survive on.

"It is not true that we don't cover their costs. If a student needs either RI2 000 or R15 000 to study for one year we pay that.

"Our aim is not to enrich individual students but to en-

Owambos or Coloureds, the able disadvantaged students to

acquire higher education, and people with two or three schol-arships are just selfish.

"Others wete given the same amount but they were not in-volved in the corruption. To say that the money was . not enough is not good enough, and not at all acceptable to us," he said.

Students studying on CCN bursaries wete furthermore required to sign a contract in which it was stipulated that they were not allowed to hold any other bursary simultane-ously.

Kashume said those students with more than one scholar-ship were fully aware of the fact that they were breaching an agreement they had entered into.

He made it clear that if stu-dcms felt their scholarships wete inadequate, they had a perfect right to change to another sponsor, but they should not hold mote than one bursary at a time.

The CCN received large numbers of applications for scholarshlps, but they had to turn away many applicants because they did not have enough funds.

Presently the CCN was spon-soring 169 full-time or part-

Tough talk froltlPresident 'Promoting violence in other countries OUT'

TYAPPA NAMUTEWA AT GOBABIS ---A NAMIBIAN citizen, who allegedly took part in right-wing violence in South Africa last week in which three right-wingers were killed and at least 56 people injured, should be arrested and sent back to South Africa to answer for his actions.

Namibian President Sam Nujoma told a public rally at Gobabis yesterday he had learned with "shock and shame" of the matter. The President saidifit was proved true, members of the public should help the police trace the man, named as Piet Botha.

Tluee Afrikaans right-win-gers wete killed in running battles with the South Afri-can Police at Ventersdorp while attending a protest rally aimed at disrupting a speech by SA State President FW de Klerk.

A Windhoekdailynewspa-per yesterday reported that a certain Botha, who farmed between Windboek and Goba-bis, claimed to have been . am.ong those involved in the violence.

Nujoma yesterday warned that his Government would not allow Namibians to take part in violence in Sruth Africa or any other foreign country.

JOSEPH MOTINGA

THE Kalahari or Bangologa Tswana Tribe is seeking rec-ognition as a tnbe • 'on its own".

Up to now they have been known and registered under the "nicknames" of the tribes among whom they have lived.

Eight men from the Kalahari tribe told The Namibian this week that they had been op-pressed during the colonial years and now, with Namibia's in-dependence, wanted to regain their identity.

The men are, Jonas Masaka, Thomas Tokwane, Jacob Chaune, Frans Mothibi, Moitshepi Masaka, Alois Mathibi, Hubert Ditshabue .and Mpho B W Shobo.

Thomas Tokwane said the tribe lived around Korridor No 21, 228 kilometers south of Gobabis, in the Aminus dis-trict. The rest of their people were scattered "all over", and spoke the languages of the tribes among whom they lived: be they Nama, Herero, San, Kavango, Damaraor Ovambo.

For this reason it was diffi-cult to determine the numbers of the Kalahari. But, Tokwane added, this could be established when they came forward and identified themselves after the

present quest foridentity. The other Tswana tribe, the

Batlhware or Tshwenenge, did not recognise the Kalahari as an autonomous cultural group and claimed ownership over the Kalahari's customary court, called the Kgota, Tokwane said.

He said the Kgota, the tribal authority body, was made up of the Chief (Kgoosi), Head-men (Kgooshaima), and Sec-retary to the Chief (Mokwal-

eri). This court was responsible

fortheenforcementofmodenn traditiona11aw, transmitting the tribe's culture to the young, and receiving dignitaries from other tribes and the Govenn-ment, Tokwane explained.

He added that there were clear cultural and linguistic differences between the Kalahari and Batlhware Tswana tribes.

The Kalahari now wanted to elect their own leaders to the Kgota to give guidance in the cultural and traditional norms of the tribe, he said. Living under "nicknames" did a lot of damage to the tribe's cul-ture, Tokwane added. The group has appointed Mpho BW Shobo 'as their spokesperson. Shobo said he would not use venge-ance but justice in carrying out his duties.

He explained that the situ-ation was slightly different with part-time or financially assisted students.

With part-time students the CCN only paid tuition fees because these students were normally employed.

If, however, they were un-employed they were sometimes also given a book allowance.

Magistrate accused of bias in Sandberg case

JOSEPH MOTINGA AT MARIENTAL A GRASS-ROOTS farm-ers co-operative at Rundu is angry and bewildered by the decision of food supply companies to re-ject Namibian produce in favour of South Mrican imports.

ONE of the accused in the Sandberg Hotel assault trial, Rene Christoffer Coetzee, yesterday charged that Mari-en t al magistrate; Clemence H ausiku , was biased and obj ected to being t r ied by him.

Mariental police had then contacted him by telephone in July to question him on the incident, he said.

Defence counsel Van den Heever then cross-examined Haarmann on the nitty-gritties of the alleged assault and de-scriptions of the tbIee men who had been beaten up. Haarmann told him he could not remem-ber all the details as he hardly knew the men and the incident had happened very quickly.

However, the case went ahead as Coetzee ' s defence counsel, Getbard van den Heever, agreed that the proceedings should continue.

The court case, which fol-lows the alleged beating up of three men who asked to be served beer in the hotel's bar in May, has sparked so much 'interest that even civil servants took the day off from work to attend yesterday.

When ,the case opened at Ilh30, Van den Heever dealt with Coetzee' s objections to the magistrate.

He said he could not com-ment on Hausiku 's credibility, but added that he had nothing against the proceedings going ahead.

The first witness, Claudia Nielandt, was not called for cross-examination by defence counsel Van den Heever as they lost the chance to ques-tion her between 09hOO and lOhOO. Nielandt had to leave to return to Germany yester-day.and the defence team tumld up late.

Piet van Heerden who with-drew as defence counsel for Coetzee on Monday, sat next

to Van den Heever whispering in his ear from time to time.

State ProcecutOl' Joban Jooste told The Namibian later that this was inline with legal prac-tice provided that the client did not object. Van den Heever said Van Heerden was not handling the caSe.

Jooste took over from State Prosecutor Britz on Monday on'instructions from the Prose-cutor-General.

Jooste started cross-exam-ining a certain Haarmann, one of the witnesses, iWout the tbIee men who were allegedly as-saulted.

Haatmann said when a Ser-geant Viljoen had aInved at the scene of the alleged assault he had neither given a descrip-tion of the barman to the police nor had the police asked for it.

Further, the police had taken no written statements from witnesses on the night of the incident as they had had to catch a train to Okahandja.

Haarmann added that the police had promised to write out the statement afterwards. He had made a written state-ment to the police at Okabandja.

Inspector Blaauw of the

He added ~ bad been shocked by the incident, which he had not expected to happen in an independent country.

Van den Heever then charged that Haarmann was lying ifhe could not say whether it was Coetzee or the other barman who lllld started the beating" and couldnot describe the men

, who had been beaten up. He then asked for the case to

be postponed to September 6, the date when Haarmann is due ~o go back to Germany.

The court however decided that the case should take place on September 3 and 4.

The Salem vegetable proj-ect claims it Was encouraged to grow a variety of vegetables, with the promise that its goods would be bought to supply schools and hospitals with food.

But now, v.:ith some 40 hec-tares of cabbages, onions, car-rots and tomatoes ready for

, sale, the co-operative has found itself stranded.

Food distn'bution companies Namibia Food Supplies and Alpine have decided to con-tinue with contracts which import'vegetables from Cape. Speaking from Rundu yester-day, Faustinus Wakudumo a committee member of Salem, said the co-operative had found its markets blocked by sudden refusals to buy a ready crop of cabbages.

"The cabbages are perfectly good, but the companies don't want them. If we can'1 sell

During yesterday's hearing a senior Sea Fisheries inspector told the Windhoek High Court that while escorting the Spanish vessels caught in Namibian wa-ters h~ had never been informed of an urgent order by the Cape Provincial Supreme Court re-stra~ing them from forcing the vessels out of South African waters.

Iohan Van Rhyn said the first time he had been informed of the order was when he arrived at Liideritz two days later.

The case follows a'high seas drama in March when three Spanish vessels trawling ille-gally in Nllmibian waters were arrested after trying to escape Namibian authorities.

While the Namibian authori-ties were still trying to persuade the Spaniards to sail to Liideritz, a controversial urgent order was granted in the Cape Provincial

Pension power to help kids A WINDHOEK pensioner, who success-fully raised enough money to send Na-mibian liver-transplant patient Elretha Genzto England for treatment four years ago, is on the fund-raising trail again.

Franz Krauser, who could not bear to see young Elretha suffer for want of funds, said watching Namibia 's street kids go hungry is just as hard to swallow.

Yesterday, he appealed to all those who gave money to E1retha and to other Namibians who don't wantto stand idly by, to help "Save our Street Kids".

"It's just a matter of sending some food -mealie pap, rice, anything they can afford - to the Kalahari Sands kitchens every month where it can be used to make nutritious meals for hungry children," said Krauser.

He himself had been sending food to the kitchens on a monthly basis, and said it was

essential to keep the supplies rolling in. He had spoken to Kalahari Sands chef, Sydney

Bond, who has been co-ordinating efforts on behalfofthe street children since early this year. "They can carry on cooking the meals as long.as there's something to cook," said Krauser. " If everyone pitches in, the kids need never have empty stomachs. It should be everyone' s re-sponsiblity to help disadvantaged children. "

Anyone wanting to help the campaign should simply take their contributions round to the hotel, he went on. "If they can't manage to get there, they can always phone me and I can arrange for som~one to pick it up. ' ,

Krauser said he had organised with Home Guard Security Service to collect food from people unable to get to the hotel. "It will be taken straight round to the kitchens and defi-nitely put to good use he said.

them for use in schools and hospitals, all we are left with is selling on the streets."

The co-operative would not be able to sell all its cabbages in this way, said W akudumo. They would either have to be sold for very low prices or be left to rot.

HARD WORK

He said the co-operative was started three or four years ago and now had about 34 mem-bers. "The land always used to be common land but in about 1971 the people were moved off because the government wanted to develop it."

However, the community organised itself to get the ground back with the assistance of German money which paid for aninigation scheme. After years of organisation, the co-opera-tive was now able to produce a healthy crop of vegetables, he said.

"We have been encouraged to grow vegetables by the new Government. In fact when President SamNujoma visited th; area in April, he said that's what we should be doing. Now we have fulfilled th,at aim, we' have nowhere to sell our goods."

He blamed the food compa-nies and local government officials who, in his view, were not supporting Rundu people in their efforts at self-suffi-ciency. "The government has contracts with these big com- . panies who already have agree-ments with South African food producers. They could apply pressure for change. "

He said Agricultural Direc-tor Peter Horn had seen' the cabbages for himself and was doing little to argue the co-operative's case with the food companies.

But Hom said the matter was not so simple. "It's not the government' s duty to supply markets for a co-operative. 'All we can do is mediate. "

He argued that " cents count" to a businessman, who would

alway choose the cheapest al-'ternative. "If that happens to be South Africa, then that 's the way it is . ..

COMPETITION

Hom said he did not wish to defend the big companies against the small farmer, but stressed the importance of quality, price and continuity of supply in the competition

. for markets. "I understand that the co-

operative thought there was some kind of promise to buy their cabbages, but I never managed to get on top of that story. "

He said he did not know what the farmers would do with their unwanted produce, and that the people involved must get to the bottom of why the vegetables were rejected.

Having seen the cabbages, he said "I would eat them, but maybe others wouldn't, Maybe they are not the right variety. "

lan Kemp a food buyer in the area for another company, Namfo, was able to shed some light on the matter.

"Someone from the co-operative came to see me two weeks ago wanting to sell the cabbages and I went to see them. The problem was they are the wrong type. "

Kemp said they were "a leafy type of cabbage that people around here don't know. I am afraid I'll have a lot of wastage if! buy them." .

He said he was quite willing to buy other cabbages currently being grown by the co-opera-tive which were the variety he had always bought. "We buy as much as we can from local farmers, but if we can't get the type or quantity we want, we

, buy from the Cape." . According to W akumudo,

there was nothing wrong with the cabbages at the co-opera-tive. " They would be supplied to schools and hospitals and I'm sure the children would not turn up their noses at the vegetables," he said, suggest-ing that the decision had more to do with protecting old sup-ply contracts than anything else.

Above: VIVA THE LAND! A typical scene in the Owambo region, which is facing serious deforestation. Above right: Various factors have contributed to environmental prob-lems in the area, including the war.

DEFOREST A TION was one of the most urgent environ-mental problems in Namibia, Erastus Awino, the chief ex-tension officer in the Direc-torate of Agriculture, told school pupils and parents in the North on Friday.

Ovambo schools fight deforestation

A wino was guest speaker on Albor Day, a day on which trees are planted, at Mwesbipan-deka High Senior Secondary School.

He told the pupils that Namibia faced the loss ofvalu-able woody plant species while

it was experiencing bush en-croachment and an increase in undesirable wood plant spe-cies and soil erosion.

All these problems threat-ened to destroy the economy and prosperity. While none of these problems had been evi-dent 50 years ago, A wino noted, the environment had deterio-rated through overgrazing, ignorance, greed and a desire

for more and rapid population growth.

Awino emphasized that AIbor Day was a very important day which waullllIked world-wide.

A wino said the aim was to make people more aware of the value and importance of trees to our environment.

He added that at school level National AIbor Day SeIVed two putposes. It offered the chance to teach future generations the value of trees, while tree plant-ing at the school made a great contribution to the environment.

plant life because it is one of the planet's .Hfe systems, .. Awino said.

He pointed out that plants were primary producers of food and energy, dyes and . drugs, fibres and timbers and even acted as filters for cleansing the air which we breathe.

A wino emphasized that de-forestation in the North was taking · on larger proportions and also threatened cultural traditions.

High population growth and the resulting "severe chopping down of trees and bushes, especially for housing and fencing purposes", was lead-ing to rapid deforestation.

Trees were normally felled to clean land for growing crops - Onkoko in Oshiwambo; for fuew,ood, for materials for housing and fencing and for furniture and household im-plements.

A wino said that during the liberation war large areas of forest, especially in the Kongo area, had been cleared by mili-tary occupation forces for their own benefit.

Further, rapid growth of the population over the past 50 years or so had meant that larger numbers of trees had been felled each year to maintain living standards.

Trees had been unable to produce or regrow at the rate at which they were being used. As a result large areas of land had become quite barren.

Mariental prepares "to awakenfroDl 'slum.ber' JOSPEH MOTINGA AT MARIENTAL

A COTTON factory could see the light of day at Mari-ental as one of a number of development projects planned for the town to realise its potential as a major centre for industrial development in the South.

. Mariental Town Clerk Thys Cronje told The N arnibian this week that' the town had the necessary conditions - adequate water, soil, electricity and labour force as well as a favourable location between Southern and Central Namibia to attract

business entrepreneurs. The envisaged cotton proc-

essing factory would be opened by Katauna Cotton with cotton being planted by farmers at Hardap, Uanab, Mariental and Stampriet.

Feasibility studies were being

conducted by the company which would shortly send ex-tension officers to help farm-ers increase production to a level justifying the setting up of a factory by March next year, Cronje said: Katuna Cot-to~ had already held meetings with cotton farmers on the envisaged project, he added.

Cronje said the first phase of constructing the factory would cost R15 million alone, while R3 million would be needed for casual labour. The factory would cover an area of 7 hec-

tares and employ 150 workers. In September Mariental

would celebrate Cotton Farm-ers' Day, Cionje said

To add to the development drive, the Ministry of Agricul-ture was planning an export abattoir for Mariental, while the Meat Cotporation had al-ready opened an office there, he said. "Mariental has been half asleep but is slowly shak-ing offits slumber," the Town Clerk observed.

He emphasized that devel-opment projects were neces-

sary to provide the money for creating services and recrea-tion facilities and to curb un-employment.

A sewage system for Aima-blaagte was a priority, Cronje pointed out. That alone would cost the municipality Rl,25m for which it was hoping it would get a favourable response from the Ministry of Local Govern-ment and Housing.

The Town Clerk added that he was satisfied that people were regaining confidence in Mariental.

sheep had aggravated the situ" ation, causing excessive tram-pling and grazing in areas of new growth.

A wino said that in Owambo deforestation had become so serious that villagers now used cattle dung as fuel for cooking fuel. He said this was a very bad practice as it robbed the soil of valuable fertilizer, leaving it less able to support life.

"We must plant trees to clothe the world in green. mak-ing towns and the landscape friendlier. to provide places for children to play, to provide shade fOI-man and beast, to pro-tect us agahtst storms and winds," Awino said . ..

He explained that trees .were a living base for many animals, produced oxygen, provided food for man and animals, pro-vided timber, were raw materials for paper and clothing, provided wood for pencils and matches. . A wino said the process of de-forestation was a vicious cycle. It resulted in increased run-off during rain storms, the soil ab-sorbing less water and increased water and wind erosion of top-soil. Further, the loss of trees exposed the land to more sun-light and the soil became drier and less fertile.

Awino told the pupils that world-wide, natural habitats were deteriorating at an alarm-

. ing rate. It had been calculated that two

plant species in the world be-came extinct every day and that as many as 40 000 could disap-pear within the next 50 years unless drastic preventive meas-ures were taken. .

In conclusion, Awino con-.gratulated the head of Gabriel Taapopi Senior Secondary School, Josia Udjombala, and her teachers and students, for organizing Arbor Day 1991 for the area and for planting trees at their schools. He appealed to other schools to follow "this very good example" .

Awino said Namibians could help the forest to recover by es-tablishing timber plantations, espec~ally , for fuel, building matenals aqd handcrafts.

Wood ~o'uld be used more ef-ficiently by using fuel-efficient, wood burning stoves imd ovens. Wood could be saved by using alternative fuels such as bio gas. electricity and solar energy and building materials such as clay bricks. Degraded natural wood-land could be helped to recover by protecting the land from live-stock, Awino said.

Awe bury their dead - ,

ORKNEY: Two right-wing Mrikaners killed in a clash with police were buried amid symbols of white supremacy yester-

. day, lauded by thousands of mourners as martyrs for "our South Africa".

Jacobus Conradie, a 32-year-old butcher, and Andries Badenhor.st, a 37-year-old primary school teacher, were described by speakers at funerals in the gold mining heart-land as the first white victims of a struggle to retaIn white rule.

The two were among three right-wingers killed on Friday in running battles with police while attending a protest rally aimed at disrupting a speech by President FW de Klerk in the right-wing bastion of Ventersdorp, west of Johannesburg.

In an eulogy at Orkney's Dutch Reformed Church, rightist Conservative Party parliamentarianPieter Groenewald saId of Conradie: "He died for what he believed in. He answered the call. He lived, and died for our South Mrica."

In a cemetery outside Orkney, A WB militants in khaki fatigues adorned with the movement's swastika-like logo gave astitT-armed salute over the grave. Many of the all-white crowd broke down as the coffin was lowered into the earth.

"I never thought I would see such a day but it is a sign of things to come," said A WB mourner Dante Rademeyer. "We are not part of this new South Africa, we will not be ruled by blacks." In Randfonteln, 4 000 mourners and hundreds of school pupils packed the town hall at a low-key service for Badenhorst. - Reuter

Alexandra declared

unrest area

SA talks should forge 'blueprint for peace'

PRETORIA: Law and Order Minister Adriaan Vlok has declared Alexandra township an unrest area with immediate effect. The squalid northern Johannesburg township has been the scene of renewed violence over the past few days during which atleast 23 people have lost their lives.

JOHANNESBURG: South Africa's main political rivals, tom by years of murderous conflict, sat down for talks yesterday to 'try to end the violence.

The African National Con-gress(ANC),theInkathaFree-dom Party and the South Afri-can government discussed a peace plan forged by a neutral church-business group.

"(The talks) are a good sign for the future, although one needs to view them with cau-tious optimism, " said talks co-ordinator Val Pauquet.

If approved, the plan will be submitted for final endorse-ment by the three parties and all other political movements affected by the violence which has killed more than 10000 people in the black townships since 1984.

The talks will be the first between South Africa 's chief political protaganists since a slush fund scandal last month poisoned slowly improving relations.

The government admitted paying Inkatha secret funds to offset the ANC' s influence in the black townships, a scandal which sidelined two cabinet

minsters and led the ANC to accuse Inkatha of being the government's puppet.

But yesterday's talks behind closed doors at a Johannesburg industrial centre were a sign that a tentative truce had been forged between the three par-ties.

The proposed plan, expected to be a blueprint for peace in the townships, calls for a code of conduct for political parties and the security forces, the identification of socio-eco-nomic problems and the im-plementation of a monitoring force.

A permanent peace secre-tariat would work with a judi-cial commission on violence and intimidation which re-formist President FW de Klerk proposed last June.

An anti-apartheid source said broad agreement had already been reached on codes of con-duct for se-.;:urity forces and political parties.

Copies of the proposed ac-cord have been forwarded to other smaller parties less in-volved in the township car-nage.

CIA links with failed bank W ASIDNGTON: It was the bank of choice for drug dealers and terrorists. And the same amenities that attracted criminals to the Bank of Credit and Com-merce International drew the business of the CIA.

The bank - with branches in 69 countries, strict privacy controls and loose accounting and auditing practices - was a spy agency's dream.

Not only did the CIA use BCCI to pay agents, to bank-roll Third World guerrillas such as the Contras in Nicaragua and to support routine spying operations, it also used BCCI accounts to track the terrorists

. and drug traffickers who banked there.

Still, many questions have been raised by the relationship between the two. The Senate Intelligence Committee is investigating. CIA Director William Webster has ordered an internal review 'of the agency's ties with BCC!, and the report soon will be submit-ted to the congressional over-sight committees.

Banking authorities in eight countries, including the United States and Britain, closed down BCCI branches after the Bank: of England revealed on July 5 that an accounting study found as much as 15 billion dollars had vanished fraudulently through the Luxembourg-based bank.

The Central Intelligence Agency appelUl to have be-come involved with BCCI in

. the late 1970s. "We, CIA, used it as anyone would use a bank ... as a way to move money," said the agency's deputy di-rector Richard Kerr.

"On the other side, we were very aggressively collecting information against BCCI as a· target of intelligence because it was a bank: that from the early '80sit was quite obvious it was involved in illegal ac-tivities such as money laun-dering, narcotics and ' terror-ism," he said.

Kerr was moved to this

unusual disclosure by news reports that the CIA was either involved in BCCI's less sa-vory activities or failed to sound the alarm about them.

The agency says it did noth-ing illegal. And when it found evidence of wrongdoing, it says it shared that information with law enforcement authorities in the United States.

But at least in one case, the CIA's information doesn't appear to have been acted on. A 1986 CIA memo, a portion of which has been disclosed by Senator John Kerry, said BCCI secretly acquired First Ameri-can Bankshares Inc., a Wash-ington-based bank holding company, and Atlanta-based National Bank of Georgia.

Officials of the Federal Reserve, however, say they weren'ttold. Senate investiga-tors have suggested the CIA wasn't always forthcoming with its information so as not to jeopardize BCCI operations it was tracking.

For example, former gov-ernment officials say, the CIA didn't tell law enforcement agencies all it knew about BCCI's role in laundering drug profits because it was using the bank to lead it to drug traffickers.

Still, information supplied by the CIA appears to have contributed to the 1990 con-viction of BCCI in Tampa on charges of money laundering.

It also appears to have. led to the closure of front companies operated by the notorious Pal-estinian terrorist Abu Nidal.

Working in conjunction with its British equivalent MI5, the CIA found in 1986 that Abu Nidal banked at BCC! in Lon-don. Some of the acc01.mts were in the name of Abu Nidal's key financial aide, Samir H Najmed-

din of PO Box 655 inBaghdad, according to documents sup-plied by an informant to MI5.

Tracing the accounts, the intelligence organizations found front companies in Poland and East Germany through which Abu Nidal traded in weapons, construction projects and mil-lions of dollars in other busi-ness.

The CIA conveyed the in-formation to the State Depart-ment's counter-terrorism bu-reau. The department then pressed the Polish and East German governments to expel Abu Nidal's personnel and shut down his companies, said Pe-ter Burleigh, the State Depart-ment's counter-terrorism ad-viser.

One of the agency's earliest contacts with BCC! appears to have ~ome through Kamal Adham, a multimillionaire Saudi of Turkish descent and

one of the original sharehold-ers in Financial General, the US bank acquired in 1981 by BCCL 'IW new owners changed the name to First American Bankshares.

Adham, a brother-in-law and close confidante of the late Saudi King Faisal, knew the CIA well: He headed the Saudi intelli-gence services until 1977, right about the time he began buy-ing into Financial General.

Adham had working and business relationships with US intelligence officials, among them Raymond Oose, who until 1977 was head of the CIA sta-tion in Jiddah. Close subse-quently retired in Saudi Ara-bia and went to work as a consultant for American firms trying to do business in that , country.

Oose says he never heard of BCCI and never discussed it with Adham. - Sapa-AP.

SA unemployment rate 17 per cent ,

-JOHANNESBURG: The unemployment rate in the country had, according to estimates, increased from about 10 per cent in 1983 to 17 per cent in 1991, Economic Co-ordination an,d Public Enterprise Minis-ter Dawie de Villiers said in Sandton yesterday. . He told an Afrikaanse Han-

delsinstituut Congress this meant that more than 2,5 mil-lion poeple were probably jobless.

Only about one quarter of prospective new entrants to the job market in the 1980s had been accommodated in the formal sector.

"At current expansion rates this means that there is no space in the formal secotr for about 330000 of the almost 400 000 people entering the labour market annually," said Or de Villiers. .

PRETORIA: Law and Order ~ster Adriaan Vlok has declared Alexandra township an unrest area with immediate effect. The squalid northern Johannesburg township has been the scene of renewed violence over the past few days during which at least 23 people have lost their lives.

JOHANNESBURG: South Africa's main political rivals, tom by years of murderous conflict, sat down for talks yesterday to 'try to end the violence.

Anyone making inflamma-tory statements against oppo-nents would be required to apologise publicly.

The source also said the parties had agreed that politi-cal killers should be brought to court quickly.

The township violence reached epidemic proportions between April and June this year, prompting the ANC to pull out of democracy talks with the government until De Klerk took steps to halt it.

Church and business leaders took the current peace initia-tive after the ANC and its al-lies failed to attend a govern-ment-convened peace summit in~ay.

Many anti-apartheid groups said at the time the govern-ment could not cmvene a peace conference as it was "one of the sources of the carnage." But they said they would at-tend a conference lO:onvened by church leaders they regarded as neutral. - Reuter.

In a statement, Vlok said a 09hOO to 16hOO curfew would be imposed in the township, from yesterday night and police rein-forcements were being de-ployed. The ongoing spate of violence in Alexandra township has claimed 28 lives and left more than 70 others injured.

Meanwhile, the Alexandra Civic Organisation said yester-day that 24 people have died and 53 have been injured in the Al-exandra unrest since Friday night.

Speaking at a Johannesburg news conference ACO member Mzwanele Mayekiso charged a low intensity war had been launched on innocent township residents by the Inkatha Free-dom Party in collusion with whites.

Although the township was quiet throughout the day, at night marauding bands of people attacked residents in the vicinity of the hostel occupied by 1FP members. Anyone pass-ing the hostel fell prey to these armed men, Mayekiso charged.

The latest spate of violence in Alexandra was sparked by a clean-up campaign spearheaded by the Sandton IFP branch after which 10 people were injured in a clash between the 1FP and resi-dents. - Sapa

Netanyahu, interviewed on the American CBS television net-work, also scoffed at an Iranian report that Shiite ~uslim cleric Sheik Abdul Karim Obeid, kidnapped by Israel two years ago, might be freed by the weekend.

"We're not about to give up the main trump (card)," he said. The comments came as Israeli media reported that the Jewish

state is expected to propose a two-stage release of Lebanese prisoners on condition that it receives concrete information on its seven missing servicemen, some of whom are thought to be dead. Such a deal is expected to include the release of the 11 remaining Western hostages, including five Americans.

Albanians allowed to stay BAR!, Italy: Italy has decided to allow several hundred Albanian refugees still in this south-eastern port after a massive influx last week to stay for the moment, national police chief Vincenzo Parisi said yesterday. ~ost of the 17 000 refugees who swamped southern Italian

ports last Thursday have been sent home. About 500 have been resisting efforts to dislodge them from an old soccer stadium in Bari and a ~altese freighter, the Susan. Some were believed to be armed.

Renamo rebels attack Chibuto MAPUTO: Radio ~ozambique reported yesterday that Renamo rebels killed 41 people last week in an attack on the southern town of Chibuto.

The government-operated radio said 77 people were injured and an unknown number abducted in the attack, the AIM national news agency reported. There was no way to independently confirm the report.

R wanda denies Tutsi massacre BRUSSELS: Rwanda yesterday denied rebel claims that govern-ment-backed militias massacred more than 1 000 people of the minority Tutsi tribe in the north of the African state earlier this year.

R wandan ambassador Francois Ngarukiyintwali said an attack on the region by the rebel Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF) in January sparked ethnic violence between Tutsis and rival Hutus but local authorities had intervened to end it.

He declined to say how many people had been hurt as a result . of what he described as "tempers running too high", saying an official inquiry was under way.

Two A WB members in coUrt JOHANNESBURG: Two members of the Afrikaner Weer-standsbeweging appeared in the Ventersdorp ~agistrate' s Court yesterday on charges of public violence following the clash there last Friday. They are Henry de Beer, 40, of Krugersdorp, and Cornelius Mostert, 46, of Stilfontein. They were not asked to plead and were released on their own recognisance.

Chief of the CID in the Western Transvaal, Colonel Henry Austin, said more A WB members would be arrested within the next few days on charges of attempted murder, public violence, assault and malicious damage to property.

Doctors on strike in Chad N'DJAMENA: Doctors and nurses in Chad launched an indefi-nite strike on Tuesday over unpaid salaries, paralysing the central African country's main hospital in the midst of a cholera epi-demic.

Long queues of patients lined'up at the central hospital in the capital N'Djamena as nurses maintained only an . emergency service in the casualty and maternity departments.

Latest official figures say more than 1 000 Chadians have died of cholera since ~ay and at least 3' 000 more Me infected in a regional epidemic which has claimed several thousand lives.

Students riot in Seoul SEOUL: About 1 000 students hurling firebombs and rocks fought police yesterday while other protesters made plans to march to the border with Communist North Korea to demand unification of the divided peninsula.

Police fired tear gas during clashes with government opponents at Sogang University in western Seoul. There were no immediate reports of casualties. In another part of the capital, 15 000 students held rallies at two schools to urge unification.

2 500 die in Chinese flooding BEDING: The worst flooding in decades has killed 57 people in China's north-eastern province of Heilongjing, bringing the na-tionwide death toll in su~er flooding to more than 2 500, ac-cording to an official report. • Reports from Agence France-Presse, Sapa and Asssociated Press

ONDERWYSERS MOET PASOP -WENTWORTH

ONDERWYSERS wat nie reg aan hul beroep doen nie en hulle wangedra moet weet daar sal streng teen hulle opgetree word. Die waarskuwing is deur die Adjunk. Minister van Onderwys en Kultuur gister op Otavi gemaak. Wentworth was op 'n verkenningsbesoek op die dorp.

Hy se die onderwys was in die verlede 'n gerespekteerde beroep maar die beeld daarvan is afgebreek deur wat hy na verwys het die onverantwoor-delike optrede van 'n klein groep onderwysers.

wat in asosiale verhoudinge met leerlinge betrokke raak. Daar sal streng teen diegene opgetree word.

Wentworth se hy het ook betroubare inligting oor voor-raad van skole wat in winkels verkoop word of deur die agter-deure van die skool gesmokkel word.

baar gestel sal word. Hy het onderwysers gevra

om met omvattende bydraes . tot die dokument te kom sodat

'n meer spesifieke taalbeleid vir die skole opgestel kan word.

Wentworthhefbygevoeg dat daar in die vergadering ver-lede week tussen die Staatsdi-enskommissie en die Minister van Onderwys en Kultuur voorstelle gemaak is oor die tydperk van diens van ongekwalifiseerde on-

derwysers. Dit is ooreengekom om die

tydperk van diens van ongekwalifiseerde onderwysers te verleng van drie tot vier jaar op voorwaarde dat hulle binne hierdie tydperk 'n formele onderwyskwalifikasie verwerr.

Die tydperlc wat onderwysers in diens is, sal gebruik word as krediete wat hul in staat sal stel om tot formele opleidingin-stansies toe te tree, het hy byge.voeg.

Anton von Wietersheim, Adjunk.Minister v~n Handel en Ny. werheid, het aan die begin van die week sakemanne se aandag opnuut gevestig op 'n handleiding wat gebruik kan word deur almal wat wil uitvoer. Die haJidleiding het hy beskryf as 'n poging deur sy minlsterie om handel met die buiteland te bevorder. Hier vertoon hy die handelsgids vir 1991/92.

Beweerde arsenaal Op OPUWO "Ek: sal nie in die privaatlewe

van 'n onderwyser meng nie solank dit nie die vordering van sy leerlinge negatief bemvloed nie, maar indien sy gedrag met die opvoedkundige moontlikhede . van kinders inmeng sal sal ek verplig wees om streng en beslis op te tree," het hy gewaarsku.

Hy het bygevoeg hy kry meer en meer berigte oor onderwysers

Hierdie vorm van korrupsie se hy kan gelykstaande geag word as die van 'n onderwyser wat sy salaris ontvang sonder om daarvoor te werk.

Oor die taalbeleid in skole het die minister gese daar is reeds 'n konsepbeleid opgestel wat eersdaags aan skole beskik-

DIE Nasionale Christelike Raad van Namibie se Sen· trum vir Inligting en Geloof Sending(NCCN·CIFM) se die Swapo kantoor op Opuwo en die kantore wat deur Untag aan Swapo geskenk is word gebruik vir die stoor van wapens.

die vermoede word uitgespreek dat die wapens moontlik ge-bruik word om politieke oppo-nente van Swapo uit te wis.

Die vraag word ook gestel of daar enige rede is om soveel wapens in Opuwo te hou.

gedoen op die inwoners van die Kaoko om bedag te wees op persone wat met gewere tussen hulle rondloop.

Moses Garoeb, Hootkoordi-neerder van Swapo, kon gister nie vir kommentaar bereik word nie.

Frans Kapofi, P~rmanente Sekretaris in die Ministerie. van Verdediging, se sy ministerie is nie bewus van die wapens nie en het op die oomblik niks daarmee te doen nie . .

Ondersoek na' werkloosheid-- . . . . , . "

DIE Ministerie van Arbeid en Mannekragontwikke· ling is besig met 'n steekproefin verskillende gedeeltes van die land en wil inwoners versoek om nie hierdie steekproef met die rumOllale sensus in Sep· tember te verwar nie.

Die steekproef wat op 5 Augustus begin het, sal tot 31 Augustus duuren handel veral oor die insameling van inligting oor die arbeidsituasie in die land.

Die doel van die ondersoek is om die verdeling van werk-loosheid tussen verskillende streke, distrikte en dorpe te bepaal en ook om te kyk na die verskille daarvan tussen die geslagte en ouderdomsgroepe.

Die ondersoekresultate van hierdie steekproefbehoort teen die einde van September beskik-baar te wees en die ministerie het dit beskryf as deel van 'n voortdurende proses met die doelom 'nNasionale Atbeidsin-ligtingstelsel te ontwikkel. Dit sal periodiek op datwn gebring word.

Altesaam vier-en-veertig beamptes en opnemers van die ministerie is tans in die veld.

Hulle besoek verskillende huishoudings en versamel in-ligting oor die beroep vanlede,

. aantal athanklikes en die wyse waarop hulle oorleef.

Weens finansiele tekortkom-inge kan die ministerie egter nie elke huishouding besoek nie. Die veldwerkers van die ministerie besoek dUs net sekere

huishoudings met gelyksoor-tige sosio-ekonomiese ken-merlce in die versk:illende streke, distrikte en dorpe. Die inligting wat met hierdie opname inge-win word sal met die strengste vertroulikheid hanteer word en nie aan enige buite instansie beskikbaar gestel word nie.

Die Minister van Arbeid en Mannekragontwikkeling, Hendrik Witbooi, wil 'n beroep op al die huishoudings wat vir die sU;ekproef gekies word doen om saam te werk en die in-· ligting waarna gesoek word te

-verskaf. Die inligting word benodig deur regeringsinstan-sies in hul pogings om werk-loosheid te verminder en 'n voorspoedige toekoms vir die inwoners van die land te verseker.

Geld aan jeugvereniging DIE Interkerklike Jeugverening van Namibie het onlangs 'n donasie van R20 000 van Pescanova Fishing Industries of Namibia ontvang en wou graag by wyse van 'n verklaring hul opregte dank aan die onderneming uitspreek vir die bydrae wat gemaak is.

Die IKN bedryf 'n jeugsentrum in Kho-masdal waar die jeug gereeld bymekaarkom vir se~, werkswinkels en lrul christelike bedry-wighede. Daarberiewens is daar ook 'n kleuter-skool met drie klaskamers wat vir ongeveer 'n honderd kleuters voorsiening maak.

Die geld sal vir die opknapping van die ge-boue van die sentrum gebruik word en die werk sal deur 'n plaaslike konstruksie-ondememing

gedoen word. Die IKJV wil graag erkenning gee aan on-

dememings soos Pescanova wat bereid is om finansiele bydraes te maak tot die ontwikkeling· van die jeug in die land.

Die verklaring gee vOorts hu~ bewustheid te kenne dat die regering baie ander verpligtinge het om na te kom en se die verantwoordelikheid vir die jeug kan nie alleen aan die regering oorgelaatwordnie. Die donasie deur Pescanova word dus gesien as 'n belegging in die toekoms en veral in die jeug van die land.

Dit gaan voort deur te se die skenking deur Pescanova is 'n navolgingswaardige vQorbeeld in die sin dat die mense van die land gesien kan word as die belangrikste bates van 'nland - veral in 'n ontwikkelende land soos Namibie.
