Media Statement from Western Cape Media Centre On 29 December 2015 at about 01:30 the Senior Security Specialist of Vodacom, who resides in Brackenfell, received a sms on his cell phone about an alarm at a farm in the Darling area on the R27 West Coast road. He also received a video of how the suspects broke into the place where the batteries are kept. He immediately contacted the police in Darling, who in turn requested back up from Atlantis SAPS. Upon their arrival on the scene two suspects were arrested and the other three fled into the bushes. Twenty three (23) Vodacom and MTN batteries with an estimated street value of R80 500.00 were recovered by the police. The weight of one battery is 65kg. A 29-year-old Mozambican national and a 29-year-old Zimbabwean national were arrested and will appear soon in the Malmesbury Magistrates’ Court on a charge of housebreaking and theft. -Ends- Enquiries: Captain FC van Wyk – 082 302 9906 / 021 417 7590
