POLOKWANE
- The Hawks in Limpopo on Sunday arrested a 31-year-old police
constable on charges of defeating the ends of justice.
This
follows a Hawks investigation into a cash-in-transit robbery at the Mokone
Shell garage on May 8, during which four suspects got away with three boxes of
cash being guarded by Coin Security guards.
The
suspects took off in a BMW which was later found abandoned 2km from the
incident. The suspects are still on the run. Investigations led the Hawks to
Gauteng after one of the perpetrators was identified and it was alleged
that a Gauteng constable aided the perpetrators to escape.
The
constable was arrested in Tembisa and was disarmed. He appeared in
the Polokwane magistrate’s court on Monday. Brig Hangwani Mulaudzi
could not confirm the outcome at the time of going to press. Police
investigations continue.
