DURBAN - Police in KwaZulu-Natal are seeking the assistance of community members in locating Lucinda Langton, Shaun Minnaar, Keegan Agulhas and Sabelo Mullela from Johannesburg. The suspects are wanted for a case of fraud that was reported at Pietermaritzburg.

On 09 April 2020, a 60-year-old woman deposited an undisclosed amount of money which was an outstanding balance on the purchase of a house. Her son-in-law had paid a deposit on her behalf, and he later sent her the new banking details of the company that was handling the purchase. Upon doing a follow up with the company that was appointed to handle the transfer, it was discovered that the money was not paid into the company’s account. The company later confirmed that the bank account that the money was deposited into did not belong to them.

A preliminary investigation revealed that the account number that the money was deposited into belonged to a certain individual. It was also revealed that the money was transferred into the accounts of the above-mentioned suspects.

Police are appealing to anyone who might have information about the whereabouts of the suspects to contact Detective Constable Lawrence on 076 428 7836 or make use of the Crime Stop 08600 10111. Tip-offs can also be relayed via the MySAPS App.
