South Africa- One child stared down the barrel of a loaded firearm, held by its drunk foster mother. Another, who was “naughty”, was forced to sleep outside for the night.

A two-year-old has been waiting for four months to have her sexual abuse reported to the police.

And complaints of child neglect have not been attended for more than nine months.

These are just some of the serious child abuse cases that social workers at Vereeniging’s Child Welfare office have ignored. And now, the cases are also being shunned by the Department of Health and Social Development.

The cases of neglect were uncovered in December, when the department audited Child Welfare Vereeniging.

But two months since the audit, nothing has been done about the cases, nor the NGO’s failure to deal with the cases.

The Star has seen a copy of the audit, but allegations of financial mismanagement have surfaced in the meantime, and the NGO is being investigated by the National Lotteries Board (NLB), which wants to know what happened to just more than R1 million given to it.

Last week, Child Welfare South Africa stepped in to control the branch. It banished the board and appointed an interim board while it investigates the matter, Sedibeng regional co-ordinator Johan Martinson confirmed. FULL STORY

Anyplace in the westernized world, CPS are out-of-control criminal thugs.
