Two arrested in Meyersdal
The police’s Athlenda Mathe said their anti-kidnapping task team believes it has broken the back of a syndicate involved in the trafficking of unlicensed firearms.
“The arrest of the 34 and 45-year-old suspects follows several days of surveillance and information gathering across provinces by the SAPS [South African Police Service] anti-kidnapping task team, where suspects involved in the moving of unlicensed firearms were identified. As suspects collected the firearms, the team moved in for a coordinated tactical takedown in Meyersdal. The suspects were found with 30 x 9mm unlicensed firearms.”
Mathe says both suspects have been linked to various other cases in Gauteng and the Western Cape.
