“Further investigation was conducted, and the outcome indicated that the vehicle was reported stolen in Komani (Queenstown) in the Eastern Cape province in December 2010. The vehicle’s driver was arrested, hence his court appearance on Monday. Police can’t rule out possibilities of adding another charge of theft of motor vehicle pending investigation,” he said.
