Limpopo police have made a major breakthrough in the fight against organized crime after dismantling a cross-border smuggling network operating between South Africa and Malawi.
In the early hours of Thursday, 5 June 2025, the Limpopo Anti-Smuggling Task Team, working with Tshimollo Security and Shadow Secure Technology, stopped a Scania truck with superlink trailers near the Polokwane weighbridge. The truck was travelling from Cape Town to Malawi through the Beitbridge border post.
During a lengthy 18-hour operation, officers found chopped parts of a Ford Ranger stolen in Nyanga, along with 60 disassembled motorcycles hidden in drums and containers. These motorcycles were reported stolen from several police stations in the Western Cape, including Bellville, Mfuleni, Muizenberg, Nyanga, Milnerton, Sea Point, and Athlone.
Police also recovered various electronic items such as plasma TVs, sound systems, solar tower batteries, and cellphones. The truck and trailers used in the operation were also seized.
The total value of the recovered goods is estimated at over R3 million.
Four foreign nationals, aged between 37 and 50, were arrested. They are expected to appear in the Polokwane Magistrate’s Court on Monday, 9 June 2025, on charges of possession of suspected stolen goods.
