Six suspects aged between 36 and 48 are expected to appear in the Ubombo Magistrates Court on Thursday, 30 September for a cash-in-transit heist that happened in Mkhuze, KZN on Monday, 27 September.

Captain Simphiwe Mhlongo said: “It is alleged that a cash van was travelling on the N2 near Mkhuze when it was ambushed by unknown suspects.
