Warrant Officer Karl Sander, a senior Hawks investigator

Warrant Officer Karl Sander will be able to not only replace his stolen coffee machine, he could even look into opening a coffee shop as a side hustle thanks to the generosity of Mzansi!

More than R150 000 has been collected to purchase a new coffee machine. The Back-a-Buddy page crashed late on Monday night with contributions coming in thick and fast.

IOL broke the news on Monday that a Durban man had started the fund for Sander after his own coffee machine was stolen during a robbery at his office as reported by IOL.

Sanders, a senior investigator at Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation (DPCI) or the Hawks in KwaZulu-Natal, this week, wrapped up his testimony at the Madlanga Commission of Inquiry in relation to the theft of more than 500 kilograms of cocaine bricks worth R200 million from the Port Shepstone Hawks office in November 2021.
