Alleged suspect
Police identified a man in Kempton Park who was allegedly using Wayne’s cellphone and SIM card.
According to a Rosebank Killarney Gazette report, SAPS captain Sifiso Mabizela said a suspect handed himself over after being sought by police.
"The suspect was arrested for suspected kidnapping and hijacking, as he was found to have been using the missing person’s SIM card, pretending to be him. The missing person’s car was not found."
The suspect was later released, pending an application to access information on the mobile device he had in his possession.
