Johannesburg - After a relatively quiet few months on our roads, cash-in-transit robberies have come back to haunt us, with one being committed almost daily since the beginning of this month. The police believe that a new group of robbers could have emerged to carry out the current spate of CIT robberies.

— SBVSouthAfrica May 15, 2019 Last Thursday, a group of criminals bombed a G4S cash vehicle on the R40 road between Acornhoek and Bushbuckridge in Mpumalanga. They fled the scene with the money. National police spokesperson Brigadier Vishnu Naidoo told The Star, with reference to the spate of robberies that took place last year: “We may have broken that ring of robbers but we believe that maybe there is a new group that is operating.”

“As much as the minister has said repeatedly that breakthroughs have been made, that they are on top of it and have broken the backbone of the syndicates, I think they are far from it.” “In every heist there are people from the criminal justice system involved. These include police, lawyers, magistrates, prosecutors and metro police.
