The North West Police said stock theft has
become a problematic crime in the country.
The two suspects aged 44 and 58-years-old
were arrested this week after they were found stealing a cow and two sheep.
North West Lieutenant Colonel Lesego Metsi
said both suspects are expected to appear in the Potchefstroom
Magistrate Court
Metsi added that when they caught the suspects they had already slaughtered the cattle.
Furthermore he explains that they also recovered
meat from a freezer along with skin and the head of the cow.
“During further investigation police also
managed to get two hidden cows inside a tavern,” added Metsi.
