Four suspects are expected to appear in the eZakheni magistrate's court after being nabbed in possession of illegal firearms and ammunition on Sunday.

KwaZulu-Natal police spokesperson Const Thenjiswa Ngcobo on Monday said the suspects, aged between 28 and 29, were arrested in a multidisciplinary operation at eNtshele in the uThukela district.

Police seized a rifle, two pistols, a revolver and ammunition. 

“The firearms will be subjected to ballistic testing to ascertain if they were used in the commission of crime,” Ngcobo said.
