RUSTENBURG - Three men arrested in connection with an alleged theft of tower batteries worth R1.2 million in Klerksdorp appeared briefly in court, North West police said on Friday.

Lieutenant Colonel Amanda Funani said Talent Moyo, Milton Ncube and Mphikeleli Ndlovu appeared in the Potchefstroom Magistrate's Court on Thursday, for possession of the suspected stolen property. "They were remanded in custody until Thursday, 19 September 2019 for a formal bail application," she said.

"The trio’s court appearance came after they were arrested on Tuesday, 10 September 2019, for allegedly breaking and stealing four tower batteries at MTN’s towers in Klerksdorp.
