When the victim denied any involvement of her vehicle, the perpetrator told her that it could be a duplicate registration number that had been used."
Constable Gibb added that the male who was at the till instructed the victim to go into her office, as this wasn't Police business, but a robbery. The perpetrators demanded the cellphones of the victims, took out their sim cards ,cuffed her colleague and took him to another office.
“The suspect in Police uniform then took out a bag and started to pack the cellphones which were in the safe as well as earphones. The value of the robbed items is estimated to be approximately R50 000.00,” stated Constable Gibb
