‘’The Station Commander of Cloetesville SAPS instructed
police members to work around the clock to bring the perpetrators to book. The
members used informer networks to source information and obtained witness
statements in a bid to arrest the suspects,’’ said Twigg.
‘’The suspects aged
27 and 31 face charges for attempted murder and will appear in the Stellenbosch
Magistrates' court once they have been charged,’’ he added.
