JOHANNESBURG - Two people have been arrested for alleged driving license fraud at the Vanderbijlpark Testing Centre in Johannesburg on Thursday.

The pair was nabbed after the National Traffic Anti-corruption Unit made a surprise visit to the testing station.

It is alleged that the officials found one of the suspects in a classroom, writing the learner's test for four other people who were not in the room under the supervision of the examiner.

The Traffic Anti-corruption Unit said that all learner's licenses that have already been issued would be cancelled.

Road Traffic Management spokesperson, Simon Zwane, said: "The two, who were arrested by members of the National Traffic Anti-corruption Unit who were on a surprise visit at the Vanderbijlpark Driving License Centre, will be detained at Boipatong Police Station until they appear in court for the bail application, and police are still looking for other suspects."
