Two of the four years for the breaking in charge will run concurrently with the 15-year sentence, which meant he was handed an effective 17-year sentence. What happened: Hawks spokesperson, Captain Matimba Maluleke, said Maphosa and his accomplices broke into a Ford dealership in Phalaborwa in the early hours of 9 December 2017 and stole six Ford vehicles – two Ford Everests and four Ford Rangers. The Hawks recovered five of the six stolen vehicles in the Masisi area, near the Limpopo River, on the same day they were reported stolen. Maluleke said: > The vehicles were intercepted from crossing the Limpopo river into the neighbouring country Zimbabwe, but the suspects were not arrested as they ran away. Through the assistance of law-abiding citizens Maphosa was arrested in the area while attempting to flee. Nearly two years after the crime was committed, Raymond Sibusiso Tshabalala who is alleged to be the mastermind behind the vehicle theft syndicate was arrested in Gauteng. Tshabalala was released on bail and he fled. A warrant has been issued for his arrest, according to Maluleke. *More Pindula News* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
