Provincial Commissioner of the Police in Gauteng, Lieutenant General Tommy Mthombeni, took to the streets of Jeppe and Cleveland where he was leading the multidisciplinary integrated #OperationShanela.
More than 70 undocumented persons were arrested while 971 wanted suspects were arrested during the overnight suspect tracing conducted by the detectives throughout the province.
The team went on to seize two unlicensed firearms, one vehicle positively identified as stolen in Norkem Park during 2016 and two vehicles found with tempered engine numbers were also impounded.
Five liquor outlets were issued with fines and notices to close for dealing without liquor licenses and illegal mining equipment and gold-bearing material were seized. The operations are continuously aimed at stamping the authority of the State while maximizing
#Policevisibility.
