JEPPES REEF – Three Swazi nationals arrested for possession of illicit goods worth R1 000 000 will appear before the Tonga Magistrate’s Court on Monday.
Mr Sisonke Maxwell Mabuza (30), Nkosingiphile Esau Dludlu (29) and Themba Goodwill Dlamini (36) briefly appeared in court charged with possession of Illicit goods. They were remanded in custody. They will appear again before the same magistrate court for their bail application on November 24.
The three were arrested on Friday by members of the Hawks Nelspruit and Jeppes Reef Border Post. The trio were each driving their own trucks loaded with boxes of illicit goods including Adidas shoes, different kinds of clothes including T-shirts and cosmetics.
They were apparently transporting the goods from the Swazi Kingdom to the Republic of South Africa. “They were immediately arrested upon their arrival at the Jeppes Reef border post,” explained Capt Dineo Sekgotodi, spokesperson of the Hawks in Mpumalanga.
