A high level team of investigators led by a Senior Officer, has been established after armed robbery that took place at Sambandou Clinic, Makuya in Vhembe District in the early hours of this morning, Monday 27 June 2022.

It is alleged that three suspects entered the clinic using the back fence at about 01h30 and approached the guard room. They suddenly pointed the security guards on duty with firearms and demanded their work pistols. They did not find any and instead robbed them of their cellphones and proceeded to the clinic building where they robbed the nurses cellphones, money and car keys of a silver Grey Fortuner of one nurse at a gunpoint. They used the car to flee the scene.

The Police were called to the scene and initial investigations to trace the suspects were activated. The vehicle was found abandoned later at Vyeboom in Vuwani.

The Provincial commissioner of police in Limpopo Lieutenant General Thembi Hadebe says that any attack on a health facility requires adequate and prompt response to ensure that the perpetrators are brought to book.
She further says that they call on community members with information that can assist in the investigations to come forward.
Anyone with information may contact investigating officer Sergeant Thulani Baloyi on 072 228 2680 or crime stop number 0860010111 or the nearest Police Station or MySAPSApp.
