Four suspects, including two police officers, have been arrested in connection with blue light robberies following their alleged involvement in truck hijackings and carjackings in Kempton Park, Gauteng, South Africa.

The arrests were made after law enforcement officials acted on intelligence linking the officers to the crimes.

Police spokesperson Col Dimakatso Nevhuhulwi confirmed that an operation was launched based on information that implicated the two police officials. The officers were summoned to the police station for questioning, and the investigation subsequently led authorities to two additional civilian suspects.

“Information from the interview led the police to two more civilian suspects who were found in possession of three firearms and signal jamming devices,” said Nevhuhulwi.

Gauteng provincial police commissioner Lt-Gen Tommy Mthombeni praised the investigative team for their efforts in ensuring that those responsible for criminal activities are held accountable.

“It is disheartening to see those who are expected to enforce and uphold the law being the ones who work together with the criminals to terrorise our communities. This arrest should send a strong message to those few rotten potatoes within the service that the arm of the law is too long, and we will surely catch up with them,” said Mthombeni.
