R59 Blue Light Hijackers on Carte Blanche this Sunday
“Motorists on the R59 between Johannesburg and Vereeniging are being terrorised by the so-called Blue Lights Gang. Victims are stopped by a group masquerading as police, before they’re hijacked and kidnapped. So what do you do to prevent this from happening to you? How do you know whether you’re being pulled over by legitimate police officers?”
Producer: Graham Coetzer | Presenter: Macfarlane Moleli of Carte Blanche investigated.
This is a sneak peek of Sunday’s broadcast.
Driver Beware: Blue Lights Hijackers
It was meant to be a quiet drive home from the office until an unmarked police vehicle pulled them over. “May I see your driver’s licence please? Sir, please step out the vehicle,” they said – a seemingly routine traffic stop. Then out of the darkness, three gunmen emerged. Suddenly the highly professional officers became ruthless criminals in a hijacking that would last for hours. Security experts say that the notorious so-called “Blue Lights Gang” is once again on the move, targeting vulnerable motorists around Gauteng. Carte Blanche investigates how these hijackers are still able to masquerade as traffic officials without detection.
