The man was arrested in Germiston in Ekurhuleni, Gauteng province on Friday. 

He is being transported to Cape Town where he is expected to appear in the local magistrate’s court on Monday on a charge of intimidation.

Hawks’ Spokesperson Thandi Mbambo, “The arrest on Friday, 23 May 2025, follows a case reported earlier this month. On Monday, May 12 2025, a complainant, who is the Chief Executive Officer of a Cape Town based company, allegedly received a voice message from the suspect, in which threats were made against the President of South Africa. The suspect is also alleged to have sent multiple threatening messages targeting the complainant, her family, and the Executive Mayor of Cape Town.”
