“The driver’s hijacked vehicle and his body were later discovered in Atteridgeville on the same day,” Masondo said.
The suspect is scheduled to appear before the Atteridgeville Magistrate’s Court on Monday, facing charges including murder and car hijacking.
The arrest follows the circulation of a disturbing video on social media showing a young man being assaulted inside his vehicle. Anti-crime activist Yusuf Abramjee shared the footage on X, showing a woman in a beige bucket hat and white t-shirt in the front seat while a man in the back repeatedly attacked the driver before they fled.
Reports identify the victim as Isaac Satlat, a 22-year-old Nigerian national and Bolt driver. Satlat was reportedly a student with a graduation planned for next month and preparing to move to Canada for further studies.
