Suspected serial house robbers arrested in Pretoria

South African Police Service (SAPS) members have apprehended four suspects believed to be responsible for multiple house robberies in Rietgat and Jukulyn in Pretoria.

The police members from Rietgat conducted a successful track-and-trace operation, following an intensive investigation on Wednesday, at approximately 02:00.

“The operation commenced after the verification of intelligence, confirming the suspects’ location. The team executed a takedown at the identified property, apprehending the startled suspects without any resistance or incidents.

“A thorough search of the premises resulted in the recovery of an unlicensed firearm, which was subsequently confiscated. Additionally, a white BMW believed to have been used in the commission of the robberies was seized,” said the police.

The suspects have been linked to at least nine known cases of house robberies. Investigations are ongoing to determine if they may be connected to other criminal activities.

The confiscated firearm will undergo ballistic testing to establish whether it has been used in other crimes.

District Commissioner of Tshwane, Major-General Samuel Thine, has commended the team for their dedication and swift action in securing these arrests, contributing to the safety and security of the community.  – SAnews.gov.za
