SBV SERVICES STATEMENT
SBV Services confirms that we experienced an unsuccessful cash-in-transit (CIT) attack on
one of our teams operating in KwaMashu, KwaZulu-Natal, on Monday, 26 August 2019.
A SBV staff member was injured and has been admitted to hospital. It is believed that
seven suspects attacked our team while they were attending to a client.
We are aware of social media footage that is circulating and wish to advise that we are
committed to co-operating with the relevant authorities as part of the ongoing investigation.
As part of our ongoing efforts to mitigate the threat of CIT crime we continue to focus on a
number of actions to continually ensure that our teams are fully prepared for all eventualities.
SBV appeals to members of the public with any information cash-in-transit crime to notify the
authorities immediately. SBV’s Early Warning Robbery Hotline is active 24/7 and
members of the public may contact 083 408 7029 to provide information to SBV’s
investigations team. All callers can be assured that confidentiality is maintained.
