A 26-year-old man was arrested by the Primrose police on Wednesday on a charge of malicious damage to property.<\/p>\n
The complainant alleged that she had parked her motor vehicle inside a garage on Senator Road in Malvern East.<\/p>
She then used her husband\u2019s car to go to work.<\/p>\n
\u201cReportedly, when her husband used the vehicle to visit his brother, he noticed a scratch on the front of the vehicle,\u201d said Sgt Styles Maome, communications officers for the Primrose police.<\/p>
\u201cHe phoned his wife to ask if she knew about the scratch and she did not.\u201d<\/p>\n
The complainant later asked her son if he knew anything about the damage to the vehicle.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe initially denied knowing about the damage but later allegedly admitted that he had damaged the vehicle,\u201d said Maome.<\/p>\n
A case was opened against the accused and he was arrested.<\/p>\n
He has since appeared in the Germiston Magistrate\u2019s Court, where his case was postponed for plea and trial.<\/p>\n
