Two suspected KZN CIT robbers in court
Two suspected cash-in-transit robbers are lining up in court on the KwaZulu-Natal north coast on Monday.
They were arrested in connection with a heist two weeks ago.
A large group of armed men shot at a cash van travelling from KwaMaphumulo towards KwaDukuza and pushed it off the road.
The gang used explosives to blow open the vehicle and took an undisclosed amount of cash.
They also robbed the guards of their guns.

Hawks KZN spokesperson Simphiwe Mhlongo says the two men were nabbed last week, one in Mandeni and the other in Ntuzuma.
"They are facing charges of cash in transit heist, attempted murder, and contravention of explosive Act. On the date of the incident, they said approximately 20. There could be less or more.
"The investigation is still continuing and more arrests cannot be ruled at this stage as the operation is still on."
