<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nWhitaker het klagtes van intimidasie en afpersing by die Vredenburg-polisie gaan aanmeld. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOns wil net ons aftreehuis in vrede bou en kom aftree. Ons het werklik nie al di\u00e9 onsin nodig nie,\u201d het White ges\u00ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens Macniel Kuilders, wat in Paternoster gebore en geto\u00eb is en voor gevat het met die besetting van die pad, sit baie van hul mense sonder werk. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cElke dag word iets soos 42 mense van buite die dorp ingery om op boupersele, in gastehuise en in restaurante te kom werk,\u201d het Kuilders ges\u00ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cGee liewer vir ons plaaslike mense werk as om \u2018onwettige immigrante\u2019 werk te gee,\u201d meen Kuilders. \u201cOns mense het nie werk nie.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pad weer oopgestel<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Die groep stel ook voor dat di\u00e9 enkelinge wat berug is daarvoor dat hulle by huise inbreek, werk gegee word, sodat hulle uit die kwaad kan bly. \u201cOns sal hulle monitor.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Danksy die ingryping van munisipale wetstoepassingsbeamptes wat die situasie aanvanklik alleen gemonitor het, het dit nie ge\u00ebskaleer toe een bouer amper deur die blokkade wou jaag nie. Hy is gevra om liewer te wag totdat die polisie opdaag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Met die polisie se aankoms het Kuilders die gemeenskap se griewe aan hulle oorgedra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hoewel die pad hierna weer oopgestel is en die verkeer kon vloei, is \u2019n groot groep mense egter oor die veld na Bekbaai, waar werkers op boupersele glo met knopkieries en halwe bakstene ge\u00efntimideer is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Vreesbevange inwoners het video\u2019s uit hul huise gemaak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens \u2019n Weskusbouer, wat verkies om anoniem te bly, is dit nie so maklik soos om net eenvoudig iemand wat by \u2019n bouperseel opdaag, aan te stel nie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk het \u2019n gevestigde span waarvoor ek maandeliks \u2019n groot bedrag geld by die Boubedingingsraad betaal, sodat hulle geregistreer bly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk kan nie vir my span s\u00ea om by die huis te bly as ek werk in Paternoster kry nie. Ons kom al jare aan,\u201d is die bouer se mening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens di\u00e9 bouer is van sy spanlede wel immigrante, maar hul paspoorte en visas moet op datum wees by die Boubedingingsraad. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOns werk oral in die Weskus waar kli\u00ebnte huise gebou wil h\u00ea en dit is n\u00e9t in Paternoster waar ons di\u00e9 soort probleme ervaar.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die bouer se toerusting het ook al onder vandale deurgeloop.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
