The police have increased their visibility on major highways and remain on high alert following sporadic torching of trucks across the country in the past week. And they have already identified 12 people possibly linked to the attacks.

The police have increased their visibility on major highways and remain on high alert following sporadic torching of trucks in Mpumalanga, Limpopo, the Free State, Gauteng, and KwaZulu-Natal in the past week. And they have already identified 12 people possibly linked to the attacks.

Cele said he had concluded a high-level meeting with the commissioners of KwaZulu-Natal, Limpopo, the Free State, Gauteng and Mpumalanga, led by the National Police Commissioner General Fanie Masemola. Intelligence suggests that the attacks on trucks may be business-related and we know that these are not just random acts of criminality. Evidence before us points to organised, coordinated, and sophisticated operations that seek to undermine and sabotage the state.

In that incident, the police suspect an ongoing labour dispute and service delivery issues in the Mashishing mining belt.
