A SAPS multidisciplinary team has this evening executed a J50 warrant of arrest and arrested a suspect for defeating the ends of justice.
The case emanates from the alleged staging of an attempted assassination on the suspect’s life in Vosloorus.
Preliminary investigations have revealed that the firearm used in the commission of the crime has also been linked to other serious and violent crimes, including cases of murder and attempted murder.
The suspect is expected to appear before the Johannesburg Magistrate’s Court on Monday, 18 May 2026.
