Weapons, including three R4 rifles and a grenade launcher, have been stolen during a suspected burglary at the South African National Defence Force’s (SANDF) Tek Base in Lyttelton, Pretoria, the military confirmed on Wednesday.
In an official statement released on Thursday, the South African National Defence Force (SANDF) said the suspected burglary was discovered on April 27 at around 12pm.
”A member of the South African National Defence Force discovered a break-in at a storeroom upon returning from an official funeral in Mafikeng, North West,” the SANDF said.
According to the statement, the storeroom’s burglar door had been forcefully opened. Preliminary findings indicate that three R4 rifles and a grenade launcher were stolen. Authorities suspect that access to the premises was gained by cutting a hole in the perimeter fence.
A case of business burglary has been opened, and the SANDF is currently verifying whether any additional equipment or items are missing.
