Three suspects arrested for kidnapping

An intelligence-driven operation has led to the arrest of three suspects aged between 34 and 57 for kidnapping and robbery in Tshwane District.

A collaborative effort between the police from Akasia and Ga-Rankuwa, including the Crime Intelligence Unit, Tshwane Flying Squad, Bank Forensic Investigation and TMPD K9, resulted in the successful rescue of a 50-year-old woman kidnapped in Ga-Rankuwa on 31 March 2025.

The victim’s son reported her missing and it was later discovered that funds were withdrawn from the victim’s bank account.

Police investigations led to two suspects at a house in Karen Park, where the victim was also kept. She was rescued and provided medical treatment before being reunited with her family. Police further recovered a white Polo vehicle that was allegedly used in the kidnapping. Police investigations continue.

The three suspects are expected to appear before the Ga-Rankuwa Magistrates Court soon.

Gauteng police management has commended the swift response of the members, which led to the successful rescue of the victim and the arrest of the suspects. – SAnews.gov.za
