Distributor of pharmaceuticals
Event
The client called at 16h00 and asked Mtrack to dispatch a recovery team as his vehicle was not where it supposed to be and the driver’s phone was off.
He also advised that the vehicle is carrying a load of Pharmaceutical products.
At 17h10 the client called to advise that the hijackers had just released the driver. Apparently the driver was hijacked at 11:30 – some 4½ hours earlier!
The agents called in to say that they had an RF signal and needed the case number from the client. The client advised that the driver was obtaining a case number.
The driver was also able to provide a description of the suspects. They were two black males wearing blue overalls. They drove the driver to a house where they were joined by another three black males.
The agents advised that the unit had been recovered with the pharmaceuticals and a blue cooler box. Two suspects were apprehended at the scene.
This highlights the power of the Mtrack unit to still be able to recover many hours after the incident.
Value
Approximately R 500,000 in cargo was recovered.
