TWO men were arrested for theft at the Durban Harbour at the weekend.
According to provincial SAPS spokesperson Lt Col Thulani Zwane, the men were apprehended for stealing fertilizer with the street value of R2.6 million.
“It is alleged that after the fertilizer was offloaded from a vessel at the harbour, it was stolen by the suspects. A case of theft was opened at Maydon Wharf and detectives initiated an investigation,” he said.
Zwane said investigations led the police officers to Clairwood where the stolen fertilizer was seized. The two suspects were charged with theft and are expected to appear in the Durban Magistrate’s Court soon.
