ProposalDescription: 

RESCUE SETUMONG VILLAGE , LIMPOPO PROVINCE

Expanded_Motivation: 

On 20 May 2016 human bones were exposed during trenching for the laying of a bulk water pipe at Setumong Village. Riverside Chuene Construction was doing excavations as contracted by the Capricorn District Municipality. The material was turned up at GPS coordinates S 23° 45ʹ 22.80 ʺ E 29° 02ʹ 38.47ʺ outside the Bakone Ba Matlala a Thaba Traditional offices . The development of water supply infrastructure is part of government’s on-going programme to provide basic needs in rural areas. Operations were suspended and the South African Police Service (SAPS) at Matlala Station was called to attend. A case was opened and referenced OB1675/05/2016. Police observation was that the bones were old. The file was therefore closed as the Police ruled out foul play, leaving the matter to the discretion of the Bakone Ba Matlala a Thaba Traditional Council to find means of disposal of the remains.
