Community Crime Prevention Organisation (CCPO) committee member, George Snodey received information from an informer identifying the intruder. “After going into KwaMakhutha to identify the suspect’s residence, we paid him a midnight visit to see if he was hiding at home,” said Snodey.
Unfortunately he wasn’t there and he disappeared for a few days with the CCPO’s informers working hard to locate him. “On Tuesday (12 March) at about 4pm I received a call and CCPO, ET Rapid Response and Toti SAPS members found him sitting at the entrance to the Toti Main Beach parking area and he was apprehended.
On Thursday he was positively identified by the victim in an ID parade in Durban.”
