A 54-year-old suspect is scheduled to make his first court appearance on a charge of theft in the Knysna Magistrates Court today.<\/p>\n

Knysna detectives, assisted by the Tsitsikamma K9 Unit, closed in on a residence in Wilderness near George on Thursday. Police arrested a 54-year-old wanted man, who had been on the run since 2012 in connection with the theft of Krugerrands to the estimated value of R7.8million.<\/p>\n

The arrest came after members of the police force followed up on a lead.<\/p>\n

A warrant of arrest was issued by the Knysna Magistrates Court in connection with the theft that was allegedly perpetrated between May 2011 and March 2012.<\/p>\n

Eden Cluster Commander, Brig Phumzile Cetyana, has commended the investigating team and the K9 Unit for their persistence to bring this suspect to book.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis shows our commitment and demonstrates the lengthy arm of the law that will stop at nothing to bring culprits to account for their deeds,\u201d Cetyana said.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
