Gauteng Hawks arrest 5 security company workers for R30m heist
24 April 2018
Five employees of a cash delivery company have been arrested in connection with a cash-in-transit heist earlier this month.
The men, aged between 30 and 48, were arrested for their role in a heist on April 13 during which R30m was stolen.
Spokesperson for the Hawks in Gauteng Captain Ndivhuwo Mulamu said the arrests were the result of an investigation by the Hawks' National Bureau of Illegal Firearms Control and Priority Violent Crime.
On April 13, the gang targeted an armoured cash vehicle which had left a depot in Spartan, east of Johannesburg, en route to Selby. But before it got to its destination, the vehicle stopped in Kensington.
