Three Saps Officers Arrested For Robbing Pakistani-owned spaza shop in

Three police officers and an alleged informer have been arrested in Thokoza, Ekurhuleni, after allegedly robbing a Pakistani-owned spaza shop.

The suspects
handcuffed the owner and four employees, and stole boxes of illicit cigarettes from the container.

The group was intercepted by members of the community who carried out a citizen’s arrest before SAPS arrived.

Authorities recovered illicit cigarettes, toy gun replicas, and two state-issued firearms.

The suspects are expected to appear in the Palm Ridge Magistrates’ Court on Monday on charges of business robbery.
