An "intelligence-driven" operation within the Gauteng SAPS has nabbed three police officers from Soweto for allegedly hijacking a truck in Kempton Park, Ekurhuleni.
The crime is alleged to have been committed in February. Gauteng SAPS spokesperson Brigadier Mathapelo Peters confirmed on Wednesday that the police's provincial organised crime unit arrested the three K9 unit officers on Monday following what she referred to as an "intelligence-driven" operation, which began after the hijacking.
"Information obtained from that operation led investigators to make the arrests on Monday. The suspects appeared in the Kempton Park Magistrate's Court on Tuesday," Peters said.
