Caught in the Act

In a recent incident that underscores the importance of vigilance on our roads, the Nojack Vehicle Tracking team, in collaboration with law enforcement, intercepted a driver using fraudulent license plates in a blatant attempt to deceive authorities. The Automated Alert and Pursuit The incident began when Nojack response vehicle NJ-3, driven by Frikkie, received an alert from its automated license plate recognition system. The system flagged the number plate due to a previous police enquiry, indicating a potential issue with the vehicle’s registration. Frikkie immediately began following the suspect vehicle while calling in the situation. Anton, in NJ-1, coordinated with Frikkie to execute a forced stop, ensuring that the suspect vehicle could not evade accountability. Once the vehicle was stopped, the team moved in to assess the situation. The Discovery Upon closer inspection, Frikkie removed the license disc from the vehicle’s windshield, only to discover that it was a printed copy rather than an official document. A quick database check by Anton further revealed that the VIN number on the disc was registered to a green vehicle of the same make and model—while the car in question was white. This immediately raised red flags. When confronted, the suspect admitted that his vehicle’s license disc was six years overdue. He went on to confess that he had duplicated the plates from a friend’s similar vehicle, further revealing that another black vehicle in the area was using the same fraudulent plates. This indicated a coordinated attempt at deception, not an isolated mistake. The Cover-Up Attempting to downplay the severity of the situation, the suspect offered to remove the false plates himself. However, upon closer inspection, Anton discovered that the legitimate number plates had been deliberately covered by the fraudulent ones—clear evidence of intent to defraud authorities. Recognizing the gravity of the offense, the Nojack team immediately escalated the matter and contacted law enforcement for further intervention. Sergeant Jaco Powell from the Flying Squad was dispatched to the scene to handle the suspect. The Cover-Up As is often the case, the suspect’s demeanor shifted once he realized he had been caught. “Like always, after we catch them, their attitudes change,” said Koen from the Nojack team. “When you put a false plate on your car, you steal from the licensing authority and commit fraud.” Sergeant Powell provided the suspect with an opportunity to drop off his worker and tools before proceeding to the police station for processing. The incident serves as yet another example of the critical role Nojack plays in maintaining road safety and ensuring that those who attempt to bypass the law are held accountable. Nojack: Committed to Crime Prevention This case highlights the necessity of vigilance and swift action in combating vehicle-related fraud. At Nojack, we remain steadfast in our mission to support law enforcement and protect the public from those who seek to operate outside the law. Our roads are safer when every vehicle is properly registered, and fraudulent activity is swiftly addressed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEjhLr7bzus

A team effort by local security companies led to the arrest of four men suspected of an armed robbery in Farrarmere.

The suspects allegedly targeted three pedestrians in Farrarmere on December 15 at approximately 09:40.

Major Syndicate Bust

NO-JACK Team Assists in Takedown of Johannesburg Hijacking Network In a high-stakes operation, the NO-JACK Vehicle Tracking team, in collaboration with law enforcement agencies, successfully dismantled a major vehicle hijacking syndicate operating in the Johannesburg area. The operation led to the arrest of 10 syndicate members and the recovery of firearms, high-tech electronic devices, and other critical evidence linking the suspects to multiple criminal activities. A Sophisticated Criminal Network For months, authorities had been tracking a coordinated syndicate believed to be responsible for a string of hijackings across Johannesburg and surrounding areas. These criminals employed advanced jamming technology, which allowed them to disable vehicle tracking signals, making it extremely difficult for authorities to locate and recover stolen vehicles. The NO-JACK team, leveraging its cutting-edge tracking technology and real-time intelligence, played a crucial role in identifying the movements of the syndicate and pinpointing their latest operation. As the team worked alongside law enforcement, it became clear that this was no ordinary group of criminals—these individuals were part of a highly organized network involved in vehicle hijacking, potential smuggling, and other serious offenses. The Operation & Arrests Acting on intelligence gathered through extensive tracking and surveillance, a task force was assembled to intercept the syndicate members at a key location. When the operation was executed, the 10 suspects were caught off guard, leaving them with no time to escape or use their jamming devices effectively. Upon searching the premises, authorities discovered a stash of professional-grade signal jammers, which the criminals had been using to prevent vehicles from being tracked. These devices are highly illegal and are often associated with well-organized crime rings specializing in car theft and resale on the black market. In addition to the jamming equipment, law enforcement recovered: Multiple firearms, some of which are suspected to have been used in previous hijackings. Laptops and mobile phones, which are now being analyzed for communication records and evidence of further criminal connections. Various vehicle parts and cloned license plates, suggesting the syndicate may have been involved in stripping and reselling stolen vehicles. Check Our Services Ongoing Investigation & Impact Authorities are now conducting a deeper investigation into the syndicate’s broader operations, including potential ties to international crime networks and the resale of stolen vehicles beyond South Africa’s borders. The confiscated electronic devices are expected to provide crucial leads, and further arrests may follow as more evidence is uncovered. This successful bust marks a significant victory in the ongoing battle against vehicle hijacking syndicates, reaffirming NO-JACK’s mission to protect South African citizens, support law enforcement, and enhance vehicle security.
