Six arrested for murder and robbery

September 16, 2023

SAPS Arrest Zimbabwean Woman For Killing Her Newborn Baby

Six of the suspects were arrested on Friday during a multidisciplinary and well-coordinated operation conducted at about 1am where warrants of arrest were executed at the residence of six of the suspects in Kwanobuhle and Despatch.

The provincial police spokesperson, Colonel Priscilla Naidu said the group was wanted for several murders, and the arrest came after 10 months of intense investigations by Queenstown Murder and Robbery unit and Cradock Commercial Crimes Investigation Unit.

She said investigators managed to link the syndicate to numerous hit killings in Kwadwesi, Kwanobuhle, Despatch, Whittlesea, and Kamesh.

“The suspects were connected to these cases through ballistic linkages and insurances policies. The seventh suspect is at St Albans Prison awaiting trial for possession of firearm case and will also be charged with the other six suspects.

“During the arrests, the team consisting of Murder and Robbery from Queenstown; Commercial Crimes Unit from Cradock, Uitenhage and Gqeberha; Provincial Anti-Gang Unit in Gqeberha; Public Order Police in Gqeberha; SAPS Kwanobuhle and Despatch detectives also confiscated a firearm, three magazines, 95 live rounds of ammunition and two cellphones,” Naidu said.

The suspects are aged between 40 and 52 and will be facing at least 11 counts of murder, in which two are double murder cases in Kwanobuhle, racketeering, fraud relating to several claims that were submitted on the 11 deceased persons as well as the possession of illegal firearms and ammunition.

Eastern Cape Police Commissioner, Lieutenant General Nomthetheleli Mene commended the investigating teams for the outstanding success.

“These arrests are a testament to the unwavering commitment and professionalism of our law enforcement officers who worked diligently to bring these perpetrators to book. Their dedication has not only removed a dangerous threat from our streets but also sends a clear message that crime will not go unpunished.

“However, it must be noted that this breakthrough would not have been possible without the outstanding collaboration between our investigators, the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA), and our partners in the insurance industry.

“This success marks the beginning of our fight against organised crime and I am convinced that it will open doors for more arrests, dismantling criminal networks that threaten our communities,” Mene said.
