Feedback from Sector Commander Const Mark Berry and Wdst CID Inspector Const Onverwagt: Re 49 Scott and 44 Polo.
- The three suspects arrested on the field names were provided as Ougat, Ricardo and Julius, but none of them was Issie. - Ricardo was handed over to Mowbray Police because he is wanted there for crime. - Other two held for further investigations. - The detective came around to bring SAPS photos but both negative to my incidents. Scott Rd Drug exchange liased with SC. - Both vehicles not found in or around Obs. - Golf graphics was corrected to be Audioscene. - Details were looked up and forwarded to SC. - SC phoned company but is a client's car with their company logo. - The company job-card will be checked and details provided to SAPS. - Kuilsriver Police were to be contacted to carry out search that side.
