 Former Police Sergeant Jailed for Stealing Evidence


A former police sergeant is heading to prison after stealing evidence from a crime scene.

Leonard Madikana Maraka, 51, was found guilty in the Tzaneen Magistrate’s Court of theft and defeating the administration of justice.


He received 12 months of direct imprisonment and was declared unfit to possess a firearm.


The court heard that on 15 March 2024, Maraka was on crime prevention duty in Haenertsburg when officers chased a suspicious vehicle to Makgeng village in the Mankweng policing area. The driver fled, leaving behind chainsaws suspected to be stolen.


Police booked the recovered items into the SAPS 13 register. Maraka then stole two chainsaws and sold them for personal gain. The items were later recovered, and the Provincial Anti-Corruption Unit opened a case.


After several court appearances, the matter concluded on Friday, 6 February 2026, with a direct prison sentence.
