GAUTENG – Anti-Gang Unit arrested duo on two separate incidents of murder, attempted murder and possession of drugs in Nigel and Naturena. In the early hours of Wednesday, 12 March 2025, members of the Anti-Gang Unit (AGU) acted on intelligence that they gathered regarding a wanted suspect linked to a murder and attempted murder case in Nigel. Upon arriving at the identified place in Nigel, a 25-year-old man was found and identified as the wanted suspect. In a separate incident on the evening of Tuesday, 11 March 2025, AGU members received information regarding another wanted suspect connected to a murder case reported at SAPS Langlaagte. Initial leads directed the team to Westbury; however, the suspect was not located at that address and the team was further led to a residence in Naturena. While there, they encountered a 26-year-old female who identified herself as the wanted suspect’s girlfriend. During their inquiry about the suspect’s whereabouts, the AGU members were informed that he had been arrested the previous day on unrelated charges. Upon requesting permission to search her, the female voluntarily disclosed that her bag contained illegal substances. A subsequent search revealed over three-hundred (300) mandrax tablets, ziplock bags containing crystal meth, with an estimated street value of R15 050-00 and cash. The female suspect was for possession of drugs. Ends
