Police has arrested two of six suspects who escaped from the Bellville Magistrate's court on Wednesday afternoon.

Police arrested 23-year-old Warren Williams at a house in Delft on the Cape Flats. Fellow escapee Ashley Daniels was arrested earlier in Belhar.

Police caught Ashley Daniels at a house in Libertas Street, Belhar. Vicoleen Abrahams and Ashley Daniels were in custody at the time when they escaped.

The two men were allegedly walking on the R300 and approached another two males. The suspects robbed the complainants of their clothing at gunpoint. Police arrested them shortly after the incident.

Police launched a massive man-hunt search for six awaiting trial last week when they escaped from court. According to police, a male inspector and female inspector accompanied the suspects from one court cell to the next when they were assaulted by the suspects. They managed to escape on foot.

Meanwhile Shuridini Arhmes and Faizel Shaboedine were also in custody at the time of their escape for an alleged Housebreaking and theft. This took place in Heathrow Steet, Delft on Monday.

The other escapee, Ismail Paulsen faces charges of rape.
