Both suspects, aged 28 and 31, were booked at Bramley police station for possession of a stolen vehicle, which was taken to a police pound.
Acting on a tip-off by members of the community, the EMPD Equestrian Unit arrested two suspects who were trying to sell a vehicle stolen during a house robbery in Vuwani, Limpopo.
The arrests and the recovery of the Toyota Hilux bakkie took place at around 2.30pm on Monday, 18 July in Bramley, Johannesburg. Information about the vehicle and how it purportedly landed in the hands of the two men was sourced from Tembisa.
A potential buyer had already been found and a price for the sale was agreed upon and two male suspects were on their way to a pre-arranged meeting place. The suspects were then waylaid and apprehended at a Shell filling station on Marlboro Drive in Bramley.
