team at Heidelberg Weighbridge

Chief Mashaba claims the information about the truck did not fall under their mandate, so he did not tell his team to look out and did not report to SAPS, requesting manpower instead.

“Remember the information I got, it is, it does not fall under our mandate. So if I would have said that to them, I am saying that to them to do what? To call me, and then? I was not going to do it, because I know it is going to give us difficulty in dealing with it. It still needed SAPS. ... I did not report. I requested manpower in the morning.”
