The KwaZulu-Natal Provincial Murder and Robbery Unit detectives have arrested Siphosethu Ndovela (29) in connection with the armed robbery of a couple and their friend in Pinetown shortly after the trio left a casino in the vicinity of Umdloti with the money they had cashed out on the night of 21 August 2026.
Reports indicate that on that night, a 50-year-old man, his 59-year-old wife and a 58-year-old friend were gambling at the casino when the 50-year-old decided to cash out an undisclosed amount of money. The trio left the casino around 23:00 in two vehicles, a BMW X3 and a Ford Ranger, and when they arrived at their residence on Bartlett Road in Pinetown, they were allegedly accosted by two suspects who robbed them of the money and the womanโs handbag at gunpoint.
When the robbery was in progress, the #FlyingSquad police officers who were on their routine patrols unknowingly drove next to the suspectsโ getaway vehicle and they found themselves under gunfire. Police managed to tactically take cover unharmed and the suspects sped off. The getaway vehicle, a white Toyota Yaris fitted with false registration plates was spotted leaving the crime scene. Police investigations uncovered that there was a second vehicle, a white VW Polo which was used in the commission of the crime. Ndovela was identified as the owner of the Polo and on 19 October 2026 he was arrested.
Ndovela appeared in the Pinetown Magistrateโs Court on Wednesday, 21 October 2026, and was remanded in custody. He will be back in the dock on 27 October 2026 for a formal bail application. A search is on for the other suspect whose identity is known to the police.

#sapsKZN [RAPIST SENTENCED TO LIFE IMPRISONMENT]
On Tuesday, 20 October 2026, the Vryheid Regional Court sentenced Joseph Lebenya (41) to life imprisonment for rape and a further five years for housebreaking. The sentence follows an incident that occurred in Bhekuzulu Township within the Vryheid policing precinct on 17 December 2023.
A 61-year-old lady was asleep in her home at night when she was suddenly awoken by someone touching her. As she was trying to establish what was happening, an unknown intruder covered her mouth with his hand, undressed her, and raped her. The assailant had gained entry through one of the windows in the house.
After he was done, the victim and the suspect were involved in a physical altercation, during which she managed to get hold of the suspect's jacket. The assailant fled leaving his jacket behind which contained his cellphone in one of the pockets.
