Western Cape police arrested two Chinese Nationals, aged 27 and 36, on Tuesday, for being in possession of stolen property.
The police’s Wesley
Twigg said officers acted on information following the theft of a motor vehicle
from a warehouse in Montague Gardens, last Thursday.
‘’Police members
pursued information and studied visual
video footage that was at their disposal. The initial intelligence driven operation
led them to a residence where the members patiently observed two light delivery
vehicles offloading cargo.
‘’This action paved the
way for a joint operation between Crime Intelligence, Vehicle Crime Investigation
Unit detectives and Bellville police on Tuesday 11 October 2022 at a local
liquor outlet in Strand Road, Bellville, where they confiscated 216 boxes of
beer with a total value of R600 000,’’ said Sergeant Wesley Twigg.
Twigg said the trailer
with the container, which was reported stolen, was found abandoned in Athlone.
The duo will appear in the Bellville Magistrates court soon on the mentioned
charge.
