G4S offering R1 million reward for information on guard killers

G4S Cash solutions in Johannesburg are offering a R1 million reward for any credible or useful information that will lead to the arrests of suspects who killed a G4S security guard last month.

The incident occurred around 15h00 on Friday, 25 February 2022 at the Mnandi’s spar, on Tulip Road in Centurion.

The suspects approached him while he was loading a secure cross-pavement cash collection unit and shot him with a R5 rifle before fleeing with the cash device. They were unable to access the cash because of security technology installed across G4S devices.

“Cash-in-transit (CIT) and cross-pavement attacks are becoming more violent in nature. This is deeply concerning, because it puts the lives of our people in danger. In addition, these senseless attacks are futile as the technology we use means any cash stolen is completely unusable. Our message to would-be criminals is clear – don’t bother attacking our teams because you will get away with nothing of value,” says Govender.
