WESTERN CAPE – The vigilance and swift response of members attached to Grassy Park SAPS resulted in the arrest of a suspect this morning who was sought for the murder of a LEAP officer in Mitchells Plain during the weekend. Toufeeq Williams (37) was gunned down on the corners of Trampoline and Cadillac Streets in Beacon Valley on Sunday afternoon in a ruthless attack on his life.
Investigation led detectives to make an identification of the suspect and that he was being harboured by fellow gang members in the Grassy Park policing area. This information was relayed to Grassy Park police who heeded to the call of duty and conducted high density patrols in a bid to bring the suspect to book.
These efforts were rewarded with the arrest of the 40 year old suspect who is believed to be a gangster. Once charged, he is expected to make his court appearance in Mitchells Plain on a charge of murder.
The Western Cape provincial commissioner, Lt Gen (Adv) TE Patekile congratulated the arresting officers with their diligent arrest of the law enforcement officer’s murderer.
