"They've been saying that for the past few months and end up arresting the wrong people."

@Sirboring_26 frustratedly said:

"Same thing with Senzo and look at the court case! More twist and turns, than the 'Days of our Lives'."

@Zakes_ngidi added:

"Why would you tell the media this? Now they will run away."

@Ntobeko73259724 was fed up:

"No man they need to make an arrest, not irritate us with investigation stories."
