Cape Town - The Passenger Rail Agency of South Africa has appealed to the public to help confirm the identity of the four suspects captured on security cameras in the “act” of train arson at Cape Town Station in the early hours of Thursday. Prasa has put up a reward of R100 000 for information that would secure their conviction. Prasa group chief executive Nkosinathi Sishi said setting fire to railway infrastructure was inexcusable and sabotage.
“Every incident further reduces Metrorail’s ability to offer its users a reliable, safe and convenient service. The harder we work to modernise the rail services, the more these incidents undermine train users and public confidence in the Western Cape train service.” Sishi said investigations and intelligence point to orchestrated sabotage within the Western Cape rail network, causing millions of rand in damage since the start of the sporadic spate of fires in 2015.
Chairperson of the City's transport portfolio committee Angus McKenzie called on Richard Walker, Metrorail Western Cape regional manager, to step down. McKenzie said in the past three years, more than 140 carriages had been destroyed.
Horrible
These prassa ppl lose R680 million in burnt out trains in a couple of years . Yet they only offer R100000 as a reward they need to put more food on the table . If there serious about stopping these terrorist attacks

Extradition and prosecution followed by execution 💀....probably nothing will happen 🙄 What about the mass graves that has been discovered in Zimbabwe of millions that Magube just killed without any reasons. So basically if you have wealth and power you can murder, rape and pillage with pride, and our so called leaders of South Africa are following by example. And yet mugabe was hailed a hero by African leaders when he met his maker in the bottom pits. Shameful of africa. mugabedeath

Cape Town City and Highlands Park share the spoilsCape Town City and Highlands Park produced an easily forgettable goalless draw at the Cape Town Stadium on Saturday night, both missing out on a chance to make a significant jump up the Premier Soccer League table. When i watch those Cape Town players at gym and their trainer its a joke. The only things they can do well is make noise and play on their mobiles. They need someone who can work them and instil work ethic in them and then, maybe, you will get results
