“It is alleged that on Friday evening, 31 May, two police officers on duty were patrolling in Westonaria when they came across two suspicious-looking men. They approached them and asked to search them. Upon searching them, the officers recovered a firearm and both suspects were apprehended and detained at the Westonaria Police Station,” Sefara said.
Sefara added that Colonel Selvan Moonsamy, the Westonaria Police station commander, wanted to applaud the police officers for recovering the firearm, because a number of house robberies and hijacking cases have been reported in the area.
