  • 1 Additional Analysis on SAPS Resourcing for Khayelitsha
    1 Additional analysis on SAPS resourcing for Khayelitsha Commission Jean Redpath 29 January 2014 1. I have perused a document labelled A3.39.1 purports to show the “granted” SAPS Resource Allocation Guides (RAGS) for 2009-2011 in respect of personnel, vehicles and computers, for the police stations of Camps Bay, Durbanville, Grassy Park, Kensington, Mitchells Plain, Muizenberg, Nyanga, Philippi and Sea Point . For 2012 the document provides data on personnel only for the same police stations. 2. I am informed that RAGS are determined by SAPS at National Level and are broadly based on population figures and crime rates. I am also informed that provincial commissioners frequently make their own resource allocations, which may be different from RAGS, based on their own information or perceptions. 3. I have perused General Tshabalala’s Task Team report which details the allocations of vehicles and personnel to the three police stations of Harare, Khayelitsha and Lingelethu West in 2012. It is unclear whether these are RAGS figures or actual figures. I have combined these figures with the RAGS figures in the document labelled A3.39.1 in the tables below. 4. I have perused documents annexed to a letter from Major General Jephta dated 13 Mary 2013 (Jephta’s letter). The first annexed document purports to show the total population in each police station for all police stations in the Western Cape (SAPS estimates). 5. Because the borders of Census enumerator areas do not coincide exactly with the borders of policing areas there may be slight discrepancies between different estimates of population size in policing areas.

  • Activism in Manenberg, 1980 to 2010
    Then and Now: Activism in Manenberg, 1980 to 2010 Julian A Jacobs (8805469) University of the Western Cape Supervisor: Prof Uma Dhupelia-Mesthrie Masters Research Essay in partial fulfillment of Masters of Arts Degree in History November 2010 DECLARATION I declare that „Then and Now: Activism in Manenberg, 1980 to 2010‟ is my own work and that all the sources I have used or quoted have been indicated and acknowledged by means of complete references. …………………………………… Julian Anthony Jacobs i ABSTRACT This is a study of activists from Manenberg, a township on the Cape Flats, Cape Town, South Africa and how they went about bringing change. It seeks to answer the question, how has activism changed in post-apartheid Manenberg as compared to the 1980s? The study analysed the politics of resistance in Manenberg placing it within the over arching mass defiance campaign in Greater Cape Town at the time and comparing the strategies used to mobilize residents in Manenberg in the 1980s to strategies used in the period of the 2000s. The thesis also focused on several key figures in Manenberg with a view to understanding what local conditions inspired them to activism. The use of biographies brought about a synoptic view into activists lives, their living conditions, their experiences of the apartheid regime, their brutal experience of apartheid and their resistance and strength against a system that was prepared to keep people on the outside. This study found that local living conditions motivated activism and became grounds for mobilising residents to make Manenberg a site of resistance. It was easy to mobilise residents on issues around rent increases, lack of resources, infrastructure and proper housing.
