10 October 2013 NUM congratulates the police on swift action The National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) congratulates the swift arrest of the suspect in the murder case of a woman miner at Aquarius platinum outside Rustenburg yesterday. The 36 year old miner was found dead at the Aquarius mine yesterday whilst a 26 year old male suspect was nabbed later the same day. The NUM appeals to the police to ensure the successful prosecution of the culprit and to move further in their investigations into the death of Pinky Mosiane who was killed at Angloplatinum two years ago. "We appeal on the police to crack down on those responsible for the escalating intimidation, threats and violence in the Rustenburg area" says Frans Baleni, the NUM General Secretary. "As a union, we abhor violence and call on the law enforcement agencies to act without fear or favour. It is regrettable that the escalating violence against women in particular seeks to reverse the gains the country made in relation to the employment of women in the mines" says Baleni. The NUM objects to the intentions made by some to try and turn the mining industry into a "men only" enclave. The NUM further calls on Angloplatinum to reveal the outcome of its independent investigations into the death of Pinky Mosiane.
