Cape Town police late last night arrested six suspects for stealing diesel at a pump station at the Cape Town Harbour.

Lieutenant Colonel Andre Traut said a tanker truck was spotted under suspicious circumstances packed close to a pumped station which was operational at the time, pumping diesel from a tanker vessel.

Traut said upon investigation police discovered an illegal connection where diesel was intercepted. The tanker truck which was full with 34 00 litres of diesel was confiscated.

“The suspects are expected to appear in court once they have been charged and the circumstances surrounding the incident are being investigated” Traut added.
