The truck with the diesel was intercepted by police.
Two suspects are expected to appear in the Delmas Magistrate’s Court soon after they were found in possession of stolen diesel worth over R120,000 in Mpumalanga.
The suspects were arrested during a joint operation by the Nkangala District Anti-Hijacking Team and Delmas Crime Prevention Unit.
The provincial police spokesperson, Colonel Mavela Masondo, said the operation resulted in the recovery of a truck loaded with an estimated 4,500 litres of diesel.
“The diesel is valued at approximately R126,000,” Masondo said.
