  • A multi-province manhunt for two suspected cash-in-transit robbers ended in the Eastern Cape after a fatal gunfight with police and security forces.
  • The suspects, linked to multiple CIT heists in KwaZulu-Natal, were cornered following intelligence-led tracking efforts by KZN police and the Fidelity Special Investigations Unit.
  • Law enforcement retrieved firearms and stolen items, reinforcing their commitment to addressing South Africa’s escalating cash-in-transit crime problem.

A high-stakes manhunt for two suspected cash-in-transit (CIT) robbers ended in a deadly confrontation in the Eastern Cape, following a gunfight between the suspects and a joint force of police and private security personnel. The pursuit, initially launched in KwaZulu-Natal (KZN), saw law enforcement and members of the Fidelity Special Investigations Unit (SIU) track the suspects across provincial lines.

The two suspects, believed to be part of an organized CIT robbery syndicate operating in KZN, were identified after several intelligence-driven investigations. When their location was pinpointed in the Eastern Cape, a specialized team comprising KZN police, Fidelity SIU operatives, and intelligence officers moved in. However, the suspects opened fire, prompting a brief but intense shootout that resulted in both suspects being fatally wounded. Fortunately, no law enforcement personnel were injured in the exchange.

During the operation, authorities recovered multiple firearms and stolen goods, providing evidence linking the suspects to recent CIT robberies across KZN. These robberies involved heavily armed criminals who attacked cash-in-transit vehicles, often using violent methods to overpower security personnel.

The collaboration between KZN police and the Fidelity SIU has been lauded as a crucial factor in quickly apprehending the suspects. While their deaths may offer some closure to victims, authorities remain committed to dismantling CIT syndicates. Police have vowed to maintain their efforts to combat the escalating threat of CIT crimes in South Africa.
