Thirty-one-year-old Siyabonga Mabanga was recently convicted and sentenced to 18 years in prison for murder.
The team responsible for securing the conviction was the Primrose Housebreaking and Theft Task Team, headed by Det-Const Remember Hlongwane.
“The team was charged with investigating a murder which took place in the Marathon informal settlement, in March of this year,” explained Sgt Styles Maome.
“After following several leads the team arrested Mabanga for the crime.”
The commander of the Primrose Police Station, Col Mduduzi Khuzwayo, thanked the team for their dedication and hard work.
“This is the third conviction the team has achieved in the past two months,” he said.
“If our members continue their hard work criminals will be swept from our community.”
