In partnership with other law enforcement agencies and relevant partners, Gauteng police have arrested over 120 suspects and recovered over 280 firearms and nearly 8000 rounds of ammunition over the past two weeks.

All the recovered firearms will be subjected to a ballistic test to establish whether they may be linked to other serious crimes committed.

Community members are reminded to report the crime to their nearest police station, SAPS Crime Stop on 08600 10111 or alternatively leave an anonymous tip-off on the MySAPS App.
