Five suspects arrested at Johannesburg guesthouse for possession of six unlicensed firearmsPolice officers searched rooms at a guesthouse in Kensington and found the five African men, in possession of six unlicensed firearm, which were allegedly intended to be used in the commission of an armed robbery.
