 Two Men Arrested for Possession of Suspected Stolen Goat in Siloam


Two male suspects, aged 31 and 38, are expected to appear before the Dzanani Magistrate’s Court on Tuesday, 21 October 2025, following their arrest for possession of a suspected stolen goat.


The pair were apprehended on Saturday, 18 October 2025, at around 17:00 during a routine police patrol along the R523 road in the Siloam policing area, Vhembe District. Police had earlier received a tip-off about a white panel van allegedly transporting stolen livestock.


The vehicle, travelling from Dzanani towards Siloam, was spotted and stopped by officers conducting patrols. Upon searching the vehicle, police discovered one goat tied with a rope in the back. The suspects failed to give a satisfactory explanation for being in possession of the livestock, in violation of Sections 6 and 8 of the Stock Theft Act.


The goat, valued at approximately R2,000, was confiscated, and both suspects were arrested on the spot. They have been charged with possession of suspected stolen livestock and are due to appear in court soon.
