18 October 2024 | From Arrive Alive
The South African Police Service (SAPS) believes it has recovered the high calibre firearms used in the commission of the crime that led to the killing of the eighteen Lusikisiki victims.
Through intelligence and meticulous detective work, the high calibre firearms were recovered on Thursday evening (17 October 2024).
Preliminary investigations indicate that the firearms were moved to another location after the killing of the Lusikisiki eighteen.
Two more suspects have been arrested after they were found to be in possession of these rifles. The pair was arrested in Flagstaff in the Eastern Cape.
The high calibre firearms have been taken in for ballistics testing to determine and confirm that they were indeed used in the commission of the crime and to also determine which other crime scenes can be linked to them.
The Minister of Police, Mr Senzo Mchunu, the Deputy Ministers of Police, Ms Polly Boshielo, Mr Cassel Mathale and the National Commissioner of the SAPS, General Fannie Masemola have commended the investigating team for this breakthrough.
