Police sources close to the investigation revealed that Jub Jub’s arrest emanates from a case opened by a well-known celebrity and TV star, who is known to the publication.

“The matter has been under investigation and after the docket was taken to the NPA for a decision, a decision was taken that the suspect needed to be arrested,” said a police officer who refused to be identified because he is not authorized to speak to the media.

“After getting a tip-off that he was wanted by the police, he decided to hand himself in.

“After police were satisfied that there was a strong case against the suspect, the NPA took a decision to prosecute.”
