“The two female detectives were investigating a case of cellphone theft, in Boksburg when a woman whom they arrested informed them that she had sold the stolen cellphone to a man living in Sunnyridge,” said Maome.<\/p>\n

“The detectives arrived in Sunnyridge and found the man in possession of eight cellphones and driver’s licences belonging to different people.<\/p>
