Two suspects appeared in the Randburg Magistrate’s Court on 29 June for charges of possession of clothing worth R16 000.
Sandton Police Station spokesperson Captain Granville Meyer said that the suspects were allegedly found in possession of the stolen clothing after security officers responded to a complaint of a suspicious motor vehicle at one of the entrances of a shopping centre in Sandton on 26 June.
“After searching the vehicle, they [security officers] found three plastic bags with new clothing,” said Meyer. He added that the suspects were unable to provide an explanation as to where they purchased the clothing as well as provide any proof of payment.
“We appeal to anyone who may have any information on the crime to contact the SAPS on the Crime Stop number 08600 10111. Information can also be communicated via the MySAPSApp, an app that can be easily downloaded via the Play Store on any iPhone or Android handset.”
All information will be treated with the strictest confidence and informers may remain anonymous.
