A cash-in-transit robber who was on the run for nearly a year after robbing a Fidelity security guard has been handed a 12-year jail sentence.

Western Cape Hawks spokesperson Zinzi Hani said Tandumzi Mayoyo, 29, was on Thursday sentenced to an effective 12 years' direct imprisonment by the Stellenbosch regional court.

“The suspects who were dressed in overalls initially targeted the guard who remained near the truck. They pointed firearms at him and disarmed him. They then waited for the other guard to return to the truck and also disarmed him,” Hani said. “They were then locked in the vault before Mayoyo and his accomplices fled the scene. An LM 5 rifle was found abandoned outside the vault,” Hani said.

“The Investigators ensured that Mayoyo remained in custody after they successfully opposed his several bail bids. The court has convicted Mayoyo on robbery with aggravated circumstances and further declared him unfit to possess a firearm in the future,” she said.

Light sentences for such violent crimes will not discourage.

edaroseofficial A potential killer a serious criminal gets such small sentence

Probably Buried the money somewhere already

Damn and I’m sure nemali kade yaphela. Lol

But Mdluli only gets five years.

Local or a foreigner?

And only cost the tax payer 1.8 million to keep him in jail for that 12 years... not nearing inflation

This sentence serves as an influence to more robberies

After 6 years he will be out back into business, than we wonder why crime is so high in South Africa.

Why not a life sentence? These dudes poses greater danger to society,i tell you 🤞🏾🤞🏾

After 6 years we'll be talking parole, South Africa mara😟😟

Only 12 years....

Good

That's like a spank on his back side

When cash-strapped adult kids move back homeAcross the world, tough economic realities are forcing young adults to move back home. In the US, 52% of 18 to 29 year olds were living with their parents in July, compared to 47% in February, according to a Pew Research Center survey. Pendamic.... It’s not only the pandemic to blame. It’s overpriced rentals, lack of job opportunities, racist policies and a general low income bracket across the board for all except C-suite executives. 🙄
