The South African Police Service (SAPS) has launched a high-level investigation into explosions that occurred at Woolworths stores in the Free State and Gauteng, with national forensic and crime intelligence experts now leading the probe.
SAPS confirmed that Acting National Commissioner Lieutenant General Puleng Dimpane has deployed a National Forensic Task Team alongside Crime Intelligence specialists to investigate the incidents.
Police spokesperson Brigadier Athlenda Mathe said investigators are still in the early stages of the inquiry and have not yet determined the motive behind the explosions.
“Investigations are currently at a very early stage, and all possible motives are being explored by investigators,” Mathe said.
