Police have arrested two suspects for possession of animal skins in Johannesburg.
The police said they received information from the community about two suspects selling the skins in Faraday.
“Police recovered different kind of animal skins such as lions, tigers, snakes, crocodile and many more. Two suspects were arrested for possession of illicit animal skins. One of the suspects was also found in possession of an unlicensed firearm and ammunition,” said police in a statement.
Gauteng Provincial management has urged members of the public to sustain the vigour with which they have come forward to report crime as police continue to work hard to restore public confidence.
“Crime can be reported, anonymously if needs be, by visiting a nearby police station or calling the Crime Stop number 08600 10111.”
The suspects are expected to appear in the Johannesburg Magistrates’ Court soon.
