Gauteng police believe they have nabbed one of their most wanted criminals.
Police spokesperson Lt-Col Mavela Masondo said the investigation was initiated in October into a house robbery syndicate operating in the northern suburbs of Johannesburg.
The team comprised the provincial serious and violent crime investigation unit, Johannesburg K9 unit, Fairlands police, crime intelligence and CAP Security. “Through a joint effort, the team was able to arrest three suspects in November 2022, recovering a firearm and a stolen vehicle.” Masondo said during the arrest, “a shoot-out ensued between the police and the suspects, which resulted in the prime suspect being critically wounded”.
