Two police sergeants, stationed at the Strand Police Station near Cape Town, have been arrested on corruption charges.

The arrests form part of an ongoing probe into a spate of business robberies and hijackings.

The officers, aged 37 and 39, were arrested in Strand and Gordon's Bay and a firearm and bullet proof platings were seized.

Police spokesperson Andre Traut says the arrests follow that of three other policemen and two alleged drug dealers last week.

He says the two suspects will appear in court on Friday.
