A 43-year-old Zimbabwean national was arrested by a multidisciplinary police team in Mpumalanga.
The operation involved Middelburg Flying Squad, Nkangala District Anti-Hijacking Team and Waterval Boven SAPS.
Police acted on information received about a suspicious white Chevrolet Utility bakkie with Gauteng registration plates.
The vehicle was intercepted on 08 December 2025 at around 13h00.
A search was conducted and the following items were discovered:
582 fake passports, some containing cash and hidden in a compartment.
R20 000 cash, wrapped inside a black plastic bag.
Investigations suggest the suspect was planning to meet someone the next day, allegedly to have the passports stamped.
Police believe the recovered cash was possibly intended for payment.
The total cash seized amounted to R147 300.00, and the vehicle was also confiscated for further investigation.
The suspect has been charged with Contravention of the Immigration Act, Fraud and Money Laundering.
He is expected to appear at Waterval Boven Periodical Court today, 10 December 2025.
