# Die Stad Tshwane se Sake-eenheid vir Energie en Elektrisiteit sê die noodsaaklike kragoordrag en tussen-verbindingsproses is 95-persent afgehandel. Dit volg na ʼn ontploffing by die Waltloo-substasie wat ʼn transformator by die Njala-toevoersubstasie beskadig het. Dinsdag se voorval het dele van die metro sonder krag gelaat. Woordvoerder Selby Bokaba sê tegniese spanne hou die oordrag […]
# Die Globale Veldtog teen Transnasionale Georganiseerde Misdaad sê as politieke sluipmoorde geïgnoreer word, verskraal dit demokratiese keuse, benadeel plaaslike regering en laat misdadigers toe om te besluit wie die mag het. Twee-en-veertig mense is reeds vanjaar dood in vermeende politieke sluipmoorde in Suid-Afrika in aanloop tot die plaaslike regeringsverkiesing – die meeste in KwaZulu-Natal, […]

# Amnestie Internasionaal in Amerika sê Christa Pike se mislukte teregstelling bewys weereens dat die doodstraf wreed, onmenslik en vernederend is. Sy is in 1995 ter dood veroordeel weens moord, en het Woensdagaand twee dodelike inspuitings oorleef. Pike sou die eerste vrou in meer as 200-jaar wees wat in Tennessee tereggestel word. Woordvoerder Justin Mazzola […]
# The Global Initiative Against Transnational Organised Crime says political assassinations, if left unchecked, will narrow democratic choice, corrode local government, and allow criminal governance to decide who can hold power.

# Amnesty International USA says Tennessee’s attempted, but botched, execution of Christa Pike is the latest reminder that the death penalty is the ultimate cruel, inhuman and degrading punishment.
