A suspect has been arrested for defeating the ends of justice. This is in relation to an alleged staging of an attempted assassination on the suspect’s life in Vosloorus, south-east of Johannesburg.
SABC News has reliably learnt that the suspect is a businessman. The SABC however cannot name the suspect until he makes his first court appearance on Monday.
Police spokesprson Brigadier Athlenda Mathe says the arrest was executed by a multidisciplinary team.
“Preliminary investigations have revealed that the firearm used in the commission of the crime has also been linked to other serious and violent crimes, including cases of murder and attempted murder.”
The suspect is expected to appear before the Johannesburg Magistrate’s Court on Monday.
