A Toyota Hilux valued at about R36,000 was seized at the Beitbridge Port of Entry after police raised suspicions about its legitimacy.
A 40-year-old Zimbabwean national is expected to appear in the Musina Magistrate’s Court on Tuesday after he was arrested at the Beitbridge Port of Entry in Limpopo in connection with a suspected stolen vehicle and a fraudulent document.
The suspect was arrested at about 2pm on Sunday, August 23, by South African Police Service (SAPS) members conducting vehicle profiling and searches at the port of entry’s departure checkpoint.
Police intercepted a white Toyota Hilux during the operation, with further checks raising suspicions about the vehicle’s legitimacy.
A document allegedly presented in connection with the vehicle was also found to be fraudulent.
