Ronnie Farao van Jamestown was Woensdag 9 Oktober by die Onder-Papegaaiberg-begraafplaas waar hy \u2019n begrafnis bygewoon het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Farao het na afloop van die teraardebestelling besluit om \u2019n draai by sy twee susters se grafte te maak, maar het beide grafte onder \u2019n hoop saagsels aangetref.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens Stuart Grobbelaar, \u2019n woordvoerder vir die Stellenbosch-munisipaliteit, is die snoei van bome deel van die gereelde instandhoudingswerk by die begraafplaas. \u201cDie vorige storm het baie takke gebreek en bome laat omval. As gevolg van die grootte van sommige van hierdie reusagtige ou bome moes ons wag op \u2019n gespesialiseerde kontrakteur om in sekere gebiede te werk. Ons spanne werk hard daaraan om die werk so vinnig as moontlik af te handel terwyl takke en saagsels verwyder word,\u201d s\u00ea Grobbelaar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Farao meen egter die werkers se aksies is grafskending. Nadat hy die grafte effens skoongemaak het, het hy \u2019n stok in die grond gesteek om seker te maak enigeen kan sien waar die grafte is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Grobbelaar s\u00ea die skoonmaak en instandhoudingswerk is vir besoekers se veiligheid. \u201cOns doen alles in ons vermo\u00eb om te voorkom dat grafte be\u00efnvloed word of dat toegang beperk word,\u201d s\u00ea hy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Farao s\u00ea in reaksie hy is glad nie be\u00efndruk met die munisipaliteit se terugvoer nie en \u201csal beslis die saak verder neem\u201d. Teen Woensdag 23 Oktober was die saagsels steeds op die graftes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
