A suspect was arrested by the Limpopo crime
investigation task team for bribing a police official.
Police Spokesperson Colonel Ronel Otto said
the suspect tried to bribe a police official with an amount of R 6 000.
Otto said the 37-year-old suspect is a
relative of one of two men who were arrested earlier after they robbed an
employer from the British American Tobacco company while he was delivering
cigarettes at a shop.
“Now they were appearing in court on
Tuesday for a formal bail application when this suspect attempted to bribe the
police official” Otto added.
The Provincial Commissioner of the SAPS in
Limpopo Lieutenant General Fannie Masemola said he trusts the arrest will show
and send a clear message to criminals that bribery and corruption will not be
tolerated.
