There's reportedly been a breakthrough in investigations into a rash of torching attacks on Metrorail trains in Cape Town.

 It's believed a person has been taken in for questioning in connection with one arson incident, but it’s unclear at this stage if the individual has been charged.

Police, however, have not confirmed or denied if someone is being questioned.

 The Congress of South African Trade Unions in the Western Cape has called for strict action against the person, if and when formal charges are laid.

Metrorail Regional Manager Richard Walker says company infrastructure has been targeted yet again, this time in the Eerste River area.
