The trial of eleven suspects involved in the 2022 Rosettenville cash-in-transit heist is set to begin today in the Johannesburg High Court. Last Friday, the court dismissed an application by the accused to have the case discharged, ruling that there is sufficient evidence for the trial to proceed.
The suspects were apprehended in Rosettenville following a dramatic shootout in February 2022, after a botched cash-in-transit heist. The men are facing serious charges, including murder, attempted murder, unlawful possession of firearms, robbery with aggravating circumstances, and theft.
This high-profile case is expected to draw significant attention as it moves forward in the courts.
