UFO's Video-taped over South Africa

It was reported on SABC TV news this evening 28 August 1996 that video material was shot of an alien craft very early this morning over Pretoria (about 60kilometers North of Johannesburg). The footage taken by a police officer on duty, Sgt. Nico Bekker was shown and I have a copy of this report on videotape. It shows a disk shaped object which seems to be lightly pulsating. The photographer who had some witnesses with him said that they are certain that this is something unusual, as there were some lights flashing on the disk. He also mentioned that the disk looked like a saucer.

In a different part of the city, another witness was interviewed and he said that the object travelled silently and in a undulating fashion. When asked by the reporter whether he thought that it might be a hoax this witness, Mr. Johan Becker said that he could'nt concieve of someone spending the huge amount of money it would take to construct a craft like that, just to perpetrate a hoax.

An Interview with a Police helicopter pilot, Superintendant Fred Viljoen was also shown. He had 4 passengers in a police helicopter and chased after the object. This man looks as if he had seen a ghost. He says that the craft outran him with easy and what was very unusual to him, was the undulating movements of the craft.


Aliens Captured in Brazil?

On January 20th, 1996, in a small town called Varginha, located in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, three young girls walking home, encountered a strange being. Apparently, there was more than one being involved and they may have been captured. Here is a first hand account received from a woman named Regina (reginag@originet.com.br):

Regina writes:

The [alleged] incident involving the capture of an ET in Varginha, a small town in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, is being considered the most impressive example of immediate contact with aliens here in Brazil. The story made headlines in all Brazilian newspapers, magazines and TV programs. Here are the details:

On January 20, three girls were walking across a vacant lot on their way home. It was a bright sunny afternoon. All of a sudden one of the adolescents (16 years old) looked left and screamed. A strange creature was squatting by a wall with its long arms between its legs; it had shiny, slippery skin and what looked like three short horns on its head.

"But what I noticed first of all were his eyes, huge and red," says the girl who saw it first. She was so frightened she turned to run but her sister and her friend couldn't move from sheer terror and just stared.

"It was the most horrible sight I've ever seen," said one of the girls later on. "It didn't look like anything I've ever seen. It was neither an animal nor a human being," said one of the girls who is married and has three children. "The creature seemed afraid and only made a slight movement with the head. We ran like hell," she said.

Apparently, the day before, an elderly couple living on a small farm a couple of kilometers from Varginha woke up to the noise made by the cattle. They went out of the house to see a UFO over the front yard, about 5 meters from the ground.

Ufologists have been to Varginha and concluded that this apparition was not only authentic but also the most extraordinary contact ever registered in Brazil. Professor John Mack, Ph.D., from Harvard came to Varginha with the specific purpose of talking to the women who had seen the alien. Ten organizations which study UFOs have signed a document testifying the seriousness of the incident.

The complete story seems to indicate that the ET seen by the girls in broad daylight was the second one to be captured; the first one was spotted 5 hours before, at 10:30 a.m., precisely, in a wood about three blocks from the place the girls are said to have seen it . This first creature was said to be captured by the fire brigade. In an article written for one of the most respected magazines in Brazil, the reporter wrote that this first ET was captured by the firemen, put inside a wooden box in an army truck and taken to an army camp a few kilometers from Varginha.

The day after, some people report having seen unusual movement in front of the local hospital (where supposedly, the girls' ET was taken) before being again removed -- this time already dead -- to Campinas, a big city in the state of Sao Paulo. Army officers who were accused of conspiracy to hide the whole episode from the public, strongly denied everything. However, the Ufologists who were in Varginha claim to have a recorded statement given by somebody from the army who was directly involved in the rescue operation. This person, according to the specialists, said that when the ET was removed from Varginha to Campinas, the body was already smelling pretty bad.

    New Reports Also Coming From China

    [CNI News thanks Brian Zeiler for forwarding the Korea portion of this story, which ran in Agence France Presse on December 31.]

    SEOUL -- A doughnut-shaped "flying saucer" glowed for an hour over a provincial city park Saturday night, attracting a crowd of awed onlookers and cameramen, news reports said on Sunday, Dec 31.

    The strange object emitted a wave of luminous red light from its center and moved slowly and soundlessly over a hilly park in the southern city of Taegu, Yonhap news agency said.

    Television and radio stations were swamped with telephone calls by witnesses who claimed it was an unidentified flying object (UFO), Yonhap said.

    An air force surveillance team in the city also saw the glowing saucer through binoculars but failed to detect it on a radar screen, it said. Many people in the city were reported to have photographed the saucer.

    CNI News correspondant Rebecca Schatte reported that the NBC-TV affiliate in Houston, Texas, ran video footage of the Korean UFO incident on January 3.

    Meanwhile, according to a report in the Scottish Sunday Mail of Dec 31, pilots of four aircraft also reported recent UFO sightings over northeast China.

    The captain of an internal flight to Beijing on December 4 radioed that he could see "a white oval object travelling at about 550 mph." He later reported that it "turned green and followed the aeroplane's flight path." Within minutes,the captain of another airliner reported seeing the same thing, and two others spotted red or yellow UFOs.
