He also said information was then received and they moved to a complex in Middleton Road, Winklespruit, where a new Golf vehicle was found parked undercover. The vehicle had no registration plates or disc, and the vehicle identification number was covered up. “It was determined that the vehicle belonged to Wesbank who were looking for this vehicle, as a very large sum of money was owed on it. Inside the vehicle, various other registration forms were found, some belonging to the stolen vehicles in Long Acres Drive,” Snodey said.“A Toyota Fortuner was also parked there; it also had no plates or disc fitted. We found out the vehicle belonged to Avis vehicle rental and they were looking for the vehicle as this person owed Avis a large sum of money.
Police spokesperson Colonel Thembeka Mbele confirmed the operation and said a 38-year-old suspect was arrested after he was found in possession of suspected stolen property.
