The suspects fled when they spotted the police. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The police then searched the Ford Wild Track bakkie and found a large amount of Sassa cards, ID documents, and bankcards, as well as an undisclosed amount of cash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cash, cards and bakkie were seized by the police as it was allegedly utilized during criminal activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similar raids and arrests were also made in De Aar and Strydenburg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All the arrested suspects were charged for Contravention of the National Credit Act of 34\/2005 and will be appearing in the respective courts soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The police request that persons who might have fallen prey to similar criminal activities to contact Const. Stefaans Mangate on 060-963-6397 or send an SMS anonymously to 32211 or utilise the Mysaps app. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-illegal-immoral\"><strong>Illegal, immoral<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the National Credit Regulator (NCR), it is illegal and a criminal offence for any credit provider to ask you to leave your ID, ATM or Sassa cards, or any of your legal documentation with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are asked by any credit provider or shop owner to leave with them any such cards or documents or pin codes, it is a criminal offence, and you must report them to the SAPS and NCR. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The NCR reminds all citizens that it is immoral for a money lender to loan against a Sassa grant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div contenteditable=\"false\" data-embed24=\"Images\" data-pos=\"middle\" id=\"embed_3e981f81\">\n<div class=\"slide\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" data-smallsrc=\"https:\/\/cdn.24.co.za\/files\/Cms\/General\/d\/3347\/52263696b6934b878dd113e6856383cc.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/696b3c66523d4f3692400f230d83a345.jpg\" title=\"Bank cards, identifty cards and documents, as well as Sassa cards, were confiscated at shops last week.

It has a long-standing history of serving the community with news and information pertinent to the region. The newspaper, distributed in the capital and more than 20 towns, is also read online in other parts of the vast province, and has been an important source of information for residents of the Northern Cape. The publication is geared towards Afrikaans and English-speaking readers, with the content reflecting the cultural diversity of the province. Like the other regional newspapers in South Africa, NoordkaapBulletin has had to adapt to changing media landscapes, including the rise of digital news platforms. However, it remains a significant part of the media landscape in the Northern Cape, helping to keep communities informed and connected.","email":"noordkaapbulletin@novusmedia.co.za","telephone":"+27514047600","legalName":"Novus Media (Pty)
