IN A shocking twist, a 68-year-old pastor has been arrested for allegedly fabricating a hijacking incident.
Limpopo police spokesperson Colonel Malesela Ledwaba stated that on May 2, the 68-year-old pastor approached the Westenburg police station to report a hijacking incident that occurred along the R37 road.
"The suspect claimed that on 11 April 2025, at around 09:00, he was driving a Daihatsu Terios towards Polokwane when he picked up two hitchhikers who were headed in the same direction," said Ledwaba.
Ledwaba added that the pastor claimed he was hijacked at gunpoint by the two hitchhikers shortly after offering them a lift and later found his vehicle abandoned along the R37 without its gearbox.
