Africa-Press – South-Africa. <\/strong><\/span>The Hawks have arrested five Gauteng police officers and two civilians in connection with an armed robbery where a Johannesburg businesswoman was robbed of R83 000.<\/p>\n

The seven – four SA Police Service officers, a Tshwane Metro Police officer and two civilians – were arrested as part of an investigation into an armed robbery on 14 June in Malvern, in the east of Johannesburg, said Hawks spokesperson Colonel Philani Nkwalase.<\/p>\n

“It is alleged that 10 suspects, of whom two were dressed in full police uniform, committed a robbery at a residence of a businesswoman in Malvern,” said Nkwalase.<\/p>\n

“The armed suspects [allegedly forced] entry into the premises, threatened the occupants and demanded money and cellular phones.<\/p>\n

“The robbers forced the woman to open her banking app and release R200 000 from her business account.<\/p>\n

“However, the bank refused to release the amount on short notice. The suspects drove with her to the bank to withdraw some money from her savings and also asked her to get more money from her relatives. The businesswoman allegedly lost approximately R83 000 during the robbery,” Nkwalase added.<\/p>\n

The seven suspects, aged between 25 and 42, were expected to appear in the Johannesburg Central Magistrate’s Court on Wednesday to face charges of corruption, armed robbery and kidnapping.<\/p>\n

“The Hawks team is hot on the heels of the remaining suspects,” added Nkwalase.<\/p>\n
