Mseteka said the suspects were apprehended during intelligence-driven operations conducted between 9 and 10 February 2024.

Additionally, Alibi Yusuf and Lonely Hudson Kaunda face charges of obstructing police officers and intending to cause grievous harm.
The fifth suspect, Henry Nhlani, was caught in possession of 40 grammes of marijuana without a permit.
Once the paperwork is completed, all suspects will be brought before court.
