Pair nabbed thanks to fingerprints

The Sebenza SAPS arrested two men for house break-ins that took place between 2012 and 2013 in Sebenza.

This comes after the fingerprints, which were taken from two houses in Sebenza, tested positive.

The Sebenza SAPS communications officer, Sergeant Sharon Mahamba-Tsotsotso said, “Like any crime scene, when the house break-ins occurred, while collecting evidence, fingerprints were also taken.

“The prints were taken for testing and the results showed that they belonged to the two suspects. Upon further investigations, the police managed to trace the suspects’ whereabouts and they were both arrested in Alexandra.”
