Only one of the suspects, Dennis Hove, has not been accounted
for, while South African robber Figos Madisha, and two Zimbabweans Clifford
Mutonhori and John Fine were re-captured.
The notorious robbers were arrested after committing a
spate of carjackings, including hitting on two haulage trucks on the N1 Highway
between Johannesburg and Beitbridge.
“Police hail the total commitment and unwavering support
displayed by ordinary community members and other organised community
structures today, Saturday July 24, 2021, in assisting the police to rearrest
three of the four dangerous criminals who escaped from a police motor vehicle
on Wednesday July 21, 2021,” SAPS Limpopo provincial Commander Thembi Hadebe
said.
“The criminals escaped last Friday while on a police truck
which was taking them to court for sentencing along the R101 Road, south of
Polokwane. They allegedly hijacked a truck and later abandoned it at Ysyerberg
on the N1 Road,” the South African police said.
Earlier, the suspects had allegedly hijacked another truck
at Nyl Plaza tollgate, but ran into a police checkpoint as they were driving
it, resulting in their arrest. Newsday
