WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

The Pietermaritzburg prosecutor charged with one count of housebreaking and two charges of corruption has been remanded in custody for a further two weeks in the magistrate’s court.
Amos Ngcobo, 38, a well-known and respected officer of the court, was arrested earlier this month after allegedly stealing dockets from the magistrate’s court offices.
Investigations later allegedly revealed that Ngcobo accepted money in return for making the dockets “disappear”.
Appearing relaxed in court on Monday, Ngcobo appeared before Dundee Magistrate L Gurie, who made the trip to Pietermaritzburg specially to preside in this case.
Ngcobo, who was expected to apply for bail on Monday, appeared together with his co-accused: Nelisiwe Mxathule, Nhlakanipho Mtshali, Sandile Mtshali and Johnny Sikhosana, who are each charged with one count of corruption respectively.
Senior Public Prosecutor Johann Senekal requested the matter be remanded to enable the State to conduct further investigations.
Ngcobo’s defence counsel, advocate Martin Krog, agreed to the remand, on condition that when the case is back in court and investigations complete, the State will not oppose bail. Senekal agreed that once all investigations had ended, Ngcobo’s bail application would go ahead uncontested.
According to the current charge sheet, Ngcobo is alleged to have broken into the Magistrate’s offices on July 19 with intent to steal three police dockets related to drunken driving cases. The charge sheet also reflects two charges of corruption.
One count relates to an incident in April 2007, near the Southgate Spar, where Ngcobo is alleged to have agreed to accept R3 000 to make two drunk driving dockets vanish.
The second offence deals with an incident in March 2007 where Ngcobo is alleged to have accepted R3 000 to sort out a drunken driving docket.
Police indicated that investigations have just begun and further arrests as well as further charges against Ngcobo are imminent. He will apply for bail on August 17.
