Glencoe detectives and Crime Prevention Unit made a breakthrough when they arrested three suspects aged between 20 and 27 for housebreakings in the area. The arrested suspects were linked to the housebreaking that was reported in one of the business premises in Glencoe where electrical appliances were taken. The members recovered goods suspected to be taken during housebreakings. Goods include four plasma TV sets, DVD player, home theatre with speakers, amplifiers and laptop.
Some of the goods are not yet identified and we are appealing to the community who lost their property to come forward and identify the recovered property. Suspects who are the foreign nationals might be linked to other housebreaking cases in the area. All arrested suspects appeared yesterday, 5 January 2015 in the Glencoe Magistrate’s Court and the case was remanded until 12 January 2015 for further investigation.
The KwaZulu-Natal Provincial Commissioner, Lieutenant General Mmamonnye Ngobeni praised Glencoe members for their sterling work. ‘I also encourage community members to mark their goods and keep the serial numbers away so that it will be ease to identify their goods in case they are recovered,’ she said.
