The suspects took items from the employees and an undisclosed amount of cash from the till. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAs the suspects exited, they abducted two of the employees (a male and a female) and fled in an unknown vehicle.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A task team was immediately established to search for the suspects and the abducted persons. The 38 year-old female victim was dropped off in KwaNobuhle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She managed to make her way to the local police station and reported the incident. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHer male co-worker, aged 28 years old was still missing and a case of business robbery and abduction was opened. The next morning, at about 08:00 police were informed about a body of a male who was found in Mothlante Street, Area 11 in KwaNobuhle,\u201d said Captain Swart. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe body was identified as that of Msawenkosi Khoza, who the previous night was abducted after the robbery. A case of murder is also under investigation.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Police are appealing to anyone who might be able to assist with any information that could lead to the arrest of the three suspects to contact Detective Sergeant Ricardo January on 072 217 5772 or SAPS Uitenhage on 041 996 3438 or the nearest police station.
