Muldersdrift Police station commander, Lieutenant Colonel Mankontsho Setlhare is concerned by the many reports of hijackings these bogus cops are involved in along Malibongwe Drive in broad daylight.

The spokesperson for the Muldersdrift Police, Constable Slindile Ntuli said motorists who use Malibongwe Drive daily are likely to be victimised by observant potential hijackers. “These criminals are active between 9am and 4pm,” she warned.
She provided the following tips for motorists:
• Be vigilant and alert at all times.
• Do not stop when signalled to do so by unmarked vehicles with blue lights in remote areas.
• If you suspect that you are being followed, drive directly to the nearest police station or filling station for your own safety.
• If another vehicle bumps your car from behind, do not assume it was an accident; it could be a trap set by hijackers.
• Do not pick up hitchhikers.
She also advised motorists be on the lookout for a white VW Polo; white Golf 7; white Ford Ranger; red Golf and black Golf, as they have been linked to the spate of hijackings.
