CAPE TOWN – Three SANParks employees face criminal charges in connection with rhino poaching in Kruger National Park.
They were arrested this week.
Two are security guards, while the other works with the technical services division at a rest camp.
Isaac Phaahla of the park said they were found in possession of a new set of rhino horns after a car chase by law enforcement officers.
“Investigations are ongoing and there is a possibility of more arrests.”
Phaahla said they had made several arrests in recent months as part of anti-poaching efforts.
“In the last quarter, SANParks arrested 16 suspected poachers within Kruger National Park, seized seven high-caliber rifles, and observed 410 poacher activities.”
