Sphelele Mhlongo (18) and a 16-year-old youth, both from Umlazi Township in Durban, appeared in the Scottburgh Magistrates' Court on Tuesday, 18 November 2008, on two counts of armed robbery in Pennington. Mhlongo also appeared in court for a further charge of attempted armed robbery in Kelso Railway Station. Both cases have been remanded until Tuesday, 25 November 2008, for bail applications. The accused remain in police custody.
It is alleged that on Monday, 17 November 2008, at approximately 14:30, Mr Ashton Schaper (19) of Pennington was traveling from Amanzimtoti to Kelso by train when two unknown men approached him as the train neared the Kelso Railway Station. One of the men pointed a pistol at him and demanded his cellphone. When Mr Schaper stood up to them, they realised that he was no easy target and fled.
On the same day at about 16:00, three suspects allegedly robbed Ms Jabulisile Bonita Myende (31) of a purse and cellphone and Ms Liziwe Lubelwana (37) of a cellphone and cash. They were held at gunpoint. The victims were at the Dolphin Drive bus stop in Pennington for transport to go home from work. The suspects fled when the victims reported the incident to the passengers in a taxi that had driven into the bus stop. The taxi gave chase and apprehended a young person.
