Train stoppers, bus burners, cable thieves must be charged with sabotage

The torching of buses, the theft of rail cable and the disruption of key infrastructure must be declared acts of sabotage and punished accordingly. Deliberately destroying services that people need to link up with economic opportunities is prolonging poverty, inequality and joblessness. It is totally unacceptable and must be condemned with utmost seriousness.

It is shocking that there are people out there who still think they can snarl-up rail networks, burn buses, play havoc with traffic lights. Enough is enough and Transport Parliamentary Portfolio Committee chairperson Donald Selamolela is completely correct when he condemns this as subversion of the worst kind. Last month’s burning of 50 buses in Mpumalanga should become the last straw.
