Four Cape Town police officers who have been linked to a house robbery in Hout Bay will appear together in the dock in the Wynberg Magistrates Court on Thursday.

This comes after members attached to the Western Cape Anti-Corruption Unit nabbed all four police officers in different incidents.

The provincial police spokesperson, Captain Frederick van Wyk, said the house robbery took place on September 14 at 135am at the premises of a foreign national in Sunset Avenue, Llandudno.

This case was reported to Hout Bay police and transferred to the Western Cape Anti-Corruption Unit for further investigation. The investigation by the seasoned detectives led to the arrest of police members over a period of time, van Wyk said.

A 44-year-old police sergeant was arrested on September 14 at 4pm at the 35 Squadron in Belhar and more than an hour later at 520pm a 28-year-old police constable was arrested at the Gugulethu police station.
