2 cops nabbed for illegally dealing in ammunition
Two Joburg Metro Police Department cops and one member of the public have been arrested for illegally dealing in firearm ammunition.
JMPD spokesman Xolani Fihla said in a statement, “On Friday 08 April 2022 the Department’s Internal Affairs Unit received a tipoff from the Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation (Hawks) who have been conducting an ammunition operation, and had earlier arrested a member of a shooting range in Randfontein.”
“The second JMPD official was apprehended near The Glen Mall in Oakdene. 5400 rounds of JMPD rifle ammunition were found in his possession.
“All three suspects were arrested and detained at Moffatview SAPS. A case docket has been opened for further investigation. An internal investigation has also been launched for bringing the council into disrepute as the department’s resources were used in the commission of a crime.
“The suspects will likely appear at the Booysens Magistrates Court on Monday 11 April 2022.” Fihla said.
