News24 reports that a collaborative swoop by the Hawks led to the arrest of 16 people who allegedly rendered security services without the required registration.
Two of the company's managers were among those nabbed on Wednesday in the swoop by the Hawks' technical operations management section, the police's K9 Unit and Private Security Industry Regulatory Authority (PSiRA) officials. The remaining 14 were guards. The swoop was carried out at the company's premises in Buccleuch in Johannesburg. According to the Hawks, two shotguns, three hand guns and an assortment of ammunition were seized for further investigation. Hawks spokesperson Captain Lloyd Ramovha said they had worked closely with the PSiRA to make the arrests and that the security company had been "under surveillance". The 16 people appeared in the Randburg Magistrate's Court on Friday.
