I want people to remember Sivenathi Toto as the young woman she was before the attack.

Sive was only 23.

In August 2022 she was attacked so severely in George that her life changed permanently. According to the case before court, she was dragged from her home, assaulted until she lost consciousness and then dumped near a petrol station.

She survived.

But she suffered severe brain damage and a stroke. She lost her ability to speak and walk independently and is now permanently wheelchair-bound and dependent on other people for her daily care.

The man accused of attacking her was reportedly granted bail the day after his arrest.

Action Society became involved and continued monitoring her case. Four years later, the court process is still continuing.

When we talk about GBV victims, we understandably speak about the women who have been murdered.

But there are also women like Sive.

Alive, but carrying catastrophic injuries for the rest of their lives.

Her life cannot simply become another forgotten court file because she survived.

Say her name too.

Foreigners said they bought IDs from Johannesburg Home Affairs

I went there posing as an undocumented immigrant & bought an ID

Former Home Affairs Director General Albert Mokoena, said "Why do you want to expose your brothers who sell IDs at Home Affairs"? He begged me not to write the story.

#WANTED

POLICE SEEK PERSON OF INTEREST TO ASSIST WITH RAPE INVESTIGATION

The Bethlehem Family, #ChildProtection and Sexual Offences (FCS) Unit requests a person of interest to assist with investigations into a case of rape.

It is alleged that on Thursday, 24 September 2026, at approximately 15:00, the victim was walking to a shop to have her cellphone repaired when she was approached by an unknown African male.

The man allegedly blocked her way and asked where she was going. She informed him that she was going to a shop to have her cellphone repaired. The man allegedly claimed that he knew her father and told her that he knew where she could have her cellphone repaired at a cheaper price.

The victim was allegedly taken to a shop, where she enquired about having her cellphone repaired. Thereafter, the suspect allegedly lured her into a vehicle in which another unknown African male was seated at the back.

The suspect allegedly drove with the victim and the other male to a guesthouse. Upon arrival, the suspect allegedly changed his mind and drove towards Warden Road, where he stopped and parked the vehicle on the side of the road.

The second unknown male allegedly exited the vehicle and left the scene. The suspect then allegedly forced himself on the victim and raped her.

A case of rape is being investigated.

The person of interest is requested to contact Bethlehem FCS Detective Constable E.M. Moswang on 072 035 5830 or #CrimeStop on 08600 10111.

48%.

That is the effective tax burden on someone earning R30,000 a month in South Africa. Same rate as someone earning R432,000 a month in a top European country.

The numbers sound wrong. They are not.

​​Where the 48% comes from.​​

PAYE is what people see on the payslip. It is not the whole picture.

VAT - 15% on almost everything. Every swipe. Every fill-up. Most people do not think of VAT as a tax. It is the largest single source of government revenue after income tax.

Fuel levy - built into every litre. Petrol at R26.92 inland includes roughly R3.80 in fuel levy and Road Accident Fund levy. That is a tax on getting to work.

Then there are the charges that look like fees but function like taxes. E-tolls. Municipal surcharges. Electricity tariffs with embedded levies.

Add the visible and the invisible - you get 48%.

​​The key difference with Europe.​​

In the Netherlands. In Denmark. In Germany. High taxes come with a social contract.

Free tertiary education. Universal healthcare that does not require medical aid. Childcare subsidies. Paid parental leave that covers an actual year. Robust unemployment support.

You pay 45%. And you get services back.

In South Africa you pay 48%. And then you pay again - privately.

Medical aid because public healthcare is collapsed. Security because policing is broken. Private schools because public education cannot be trusted. Solar panels or a generator because Eskom cannot guarantee power. Water tanks because the municipality cannot guarantee supply.

The middle-class earner pays twice. Once in tax. Once in escape.

​​Who actually pays.​​

There are about 8.3 million personal income taxpayers in South Africa. A relatively small slice of the population. The top earners supply most of the revenue.

Corporations optimise. The wealthy structure. Offshore trusts. Semigration. Emigration. The R30,000 earner cannot escape - it comes out before they see the money.

The base is narrow. The burden is concentrated. The services are not.

​​Why it accumulated this way.​​

No one designed this system. It grew.

Income tax funds the general budget. VAT funds the general budget. Fuel levy funds roads and the general budget. Each mechanism made sense when it was introduced. Each one expanded quietly.

Raising income tax visibly upsets people. Raising VAT is less visible - it is embedded in the price. Raising fuel levy is buried in the pump price. Municipal charges are non-negotiable.

The objective was not fairness to the middle class. It was revenue extraction with minimum political friction.

​​The uncomfortable part.​​

This is not a policy failure. It is a policy success. The system extracts efficiently. It offends quietly. And the people who carry it do not have the means to opt out.

The question is not whether 48% is too high.

It is how long the R30,000 earner can pay twice - once in tax and once in escape - before something breaks.

Guys??? There’s a new scam from amaphara now. They come dressed in what appears to be SAPS uniform. Their intentions are to rob you and clear your home. I’ve heard this is already happening in Gqeberha. Please be careful ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️
