@FlySafair what is the reason for the delay of FA171???? Why couldn’t the FA464 be delayed? And FA171 take their spot. Like what the actual swearword! I am travelling with 2 kids and now we must live at the airport until 09:05pm
I woke up to a story of a 7 years old child who was raped brutally. And immediately thought of my girl who is around the same age.I would like to send out my deepest sympathy and prayers to Cwecwe and her family.
The child innocence was stripped from her 😔

#JusticeForCwecwe I was recently made aware of a 7 year old that was raped in Bergville College. The Principal has since expelled the child and refused to comply with the investigation. This family needs our support and urgent attention! @Julius_S_Malema@SAPoliceService
This is so heartbreaking! There is never any justice! We hold our chests and wail. We rage on until voices are burnt like the buildings we set alight in order to be seen. This little girl, every little girl. These bodies! We need justice. #JusticeForCwecwe

Below is the principal of Bergview College , who refused to provide his DNA samples, after the 7 year old kid was r@ped. He is the same principal who tried to convince Cwecwe's mother not to "spread rumours", arguing that it would tarnish the school's image.
Now, the questions I'm asking myself are: Why is he so nonchalant about the whole situation? Is he really as innocent as he claims in this case?

Family demands justice in shocking school assault case
A distressing case of alleged sexual assault at Bergview College has ignited national outrage, with calls for justice growing louder nearly six months after the reported incident.
Seven-year-old Cwecwe and her family remain in limbo as the South African Police Service (SAPS) investigation struggles to gain traction. The assault allegedly took place on October 14, 2024, at the independent school in Matatiele, Eastern Cape. The case has since drawn widespread attention, fueling the #JusticeForCwecwe movement and exposing critical lapses in child safety.
According to her mother a rape survivor herself the young girl returned home that day visibly distressed, complaining of stomach pain, with her trouser zipper undone. A medical examination confirmed severe sexual abuse, reportedly occurring while she waited for school transport. Yet, despite the damning evidence, no arrests have been made as of March 29, 2025.
Sources familiar with the case claim the school’s principal has hindered the investigation, refusing to submit his DNA for testing. Allegations of Bergview College obstructing the probe have further intensified scrutiny, with critics accusing the institution of withholding crucial information.
Adding to the family's anguish, the school issued Cwecwe’s parents an unrequested transfer letter shortly after the assault, effectively expelling the child. The decision was met with public outrage and seen as an attempt to evade accountability. In response, the Eastern Cape Department of Education stepped in, announcing on March 28 that Bergview College had been deregistered for failing to meet safety standards. The department is now working to place students in alternative schools.
Cwecwe’s mother has taken her fight to the public, speaking out on the Hope Revolution Podcast and calling for urgent action. Advocacy groups, including Women For Change and the United Democratic Movement (UDM), have rallied behind her, alongside government leaders such as Basic Education Minister Siviwe Gwarube and Eastern Cape Education MEC Fundile Gade, who have urged police to expedite their investigation.
The #JusticeForCwecwe campaign continues to gain momentum online, as South Africans demand accountability and systemic reforms to better protect schoolchildren. While Bergview College’s closure marks a step forward, the lack of arrests and the principal’s refusal to cooperate leave both Cwecwe’s family and the broader community anxiously awaiting justice.
