JOHANNESBURG - Three police officers and a civilian have been arrested for soliciting a bribe of over R500,000.
They will appear on Monday at the Randburg Magistrate's Court.
The three suspects allegedly went to a residence to enquire about issues with a woman's passport and alleged fraudulent stamps.
They later arrested her and threatened to arrest her son as well, while hinting that a R1 million payment could settle the matter.
The woman eventually agreed to pay the suspects an amount of R500,000.
She then reported the matter to the Directorate for Priority Primes Investigation.
The complainant has since been released.
