Suspects arrested for the possession of stolen property

The vigilance by members of the Maitland Flying Squad and Woodstock Crime Prevention Unit led to the arrest of three suspects between the ages of 30 and 46 for the possession of presumed stolen property in Woodstock on Friday. The members stopped and searched two suspicious vehicles and confiscated electronic equipment with accessories, a cellular telephone and an undisclosed amount of cash. The suspects could not give explanations of how they got the items they had in their possession. Further investigations revealed that the suspects could possibly be linked to crimes committed in Cape Town and Kirstenhof.

They are due to make a court appearance in the Cape Town Magistrates court on Monday.
