“Officers contacted the control room for verification. A systematic check confirmed that the registration plate belonged to another vehicle, and the licence disc came back positive for a stolen vehicle reported in Rabie Ridge under CAS Number /10/2025,” Makgato said.
All relevant role players were summoned to the scene, and the vehicle was towed to the Pretoria West police pound for further investigation.
