If You Have A Criminal Record,

I would have thought the one place to avoid is a police station,

photograph SAPS but obviously 40 year old Thomas Ngcobo thought differently as he applied for a job as a policeman! he had been on the run for the last seven years, “According to information at the police’s disposal, the suspect was supposed to make a hardware material delivery worth more than R20 000. It is alleged that the said material was redirected to another address without either the owner’s consent or knowledge,” said Mpumalanga police spokesperson, Brigadier Selvy Mohlala, Ngcobo’s name was added to the police’s wanted criminal list as soon as his employer filed a complaint against him, so asking to be a policeman was not the best career move, but the criminal not only applied to be a policeman when the application took a long time he actually walked into a police station and asked what the hold up was! Mpumalanga police spokesperson, Brigadier Selvy Mohlala, told reporters that his colleagues at the local police station were baffled by Thomas Ngcobo’s visit. “The suspect was unexpectedly nabbed on Monday, August 15, 2022, after he visited the Bethal SAPS to make enquiries about his application for a police recruitment drive,” Mohlala said, according to South African news sources, the provincial law enforcement has been promoting Ngcobo’s arrest as an example of its tireless pursuit of justice, conveniently forgetting to mention that the suspect literally walked into a police station.
