Possible suspects in FNB heist interviewed
Officials interview possible suspects connected to a heist at the stadium after the Justin Bieber concert.
JOHANNESBURG - Stadium management at the FNB Stadium in Soweto at the weekend said several pieces of key evidence analysed this week may soon lead to arrests linked to a robbery after the Justin Bieber concert last weekend.
The massive heist was staged in the early hours of Monday morning.
Eyewitness News revealed how thieves chiselled away at a wall and used ropes and ladders to gain access to a strong room.
Police said robbers fled with an undisclosed amount of cash believed to be in the millions.
Stadium Management South Africa's CEO Jacques Grobelaar said all leads are being followed up closely.
"By Thursday afternoon the possible suspects were narrowed a number of less than 10 individuals. One on one interviews will continue as well as voice-stress analysis."
