Johannesburg - Two men accused of house robbery and burglaries, including a robbery at the house of Crime Line head Yusuf Abramjee, appeared in the Atteridgeville Magistrate's Court on Wednesday, Gauteng police said.
The case was postponed to December 4 for further investigation, Brigadier Neville Malila said.
The men had also allegedly tried to buy a case docket from the police, he said.
Malila said the men were arrested in Atteridgeville on Monday, and had been linked to robberies at two homes in Erasmia, including Abramjee's.
“They were arrested for a spate of house robberies, burglaries, and hijackings around Pretoria.”
Police seized three stolen cars, two unlicensed firearms, ammunition and money at the men's home.
Robbers broke into Abramjee's house and demanded the keys to his BMW on Friday morning. They fired shots while reversing out of the garage.
Earlier that morning, the robbers targeted another house in a nearby street.
