The multi task team is currently hard at work at the Hennops river, Centurion, Gauteng where they are pulling out what seems to be a vehicle that was used by three police officers who were found dead in that river on Tuesday. The heavy tow truck with many cables is now pulling what seems to be a vehicle from the Hennops river.

The South African Police Service have deployed different experts as they search for clues in what could have happened during that fateful night.

The process includes the verification of the vehicle to ascertain whether the wreckage that they are pulling out from the river is that of a polo vehicle that was used by three police officers.

Once brought to the service, it’s VIN number will be scrutinised to check if it the vehicle in question.
