Pretoria – South African Police Service officers in a marked Mpumalanga flying squad vehicle have been arrested in Springs in Gauteng while transporting dagga and money they had just taken from drug dealers, Gauteng police said on Sunday.
“Members from Devon in [the] Ekurhuleni district stopped a private vehicle at a static roadblock on the R29. The team's suspicions and subsequent search of the vehicle led to the occupants confessing that the dagga they had in their vehicle had been taken by SAPS members in a marked Mpumalanga SAPS flying squad vehicle. These flying squad unit members had allegedly also demanded and taken a sum of money,” Peters said.
