Two more people have been arrested after alleged underworld figure Nafiz Modack was apprehended in Cape Town on Thursday.
They handed themselves over to the authorities on Friday.
Modack was one of four people arrested in Century View. The three others have since been released.
Two more people have been arrested in connection with the attempted murder of a lawyer, as well as gang-related extortion, kidnapping and intimidation in Milnerton, joining alleged underworld kingpin Nafiz Modack, who was arrested for the charges on Thursday.
Modack was arrested in Century View when a team, which included the Hawks, the police s special task force and the Anti-Gang Unit, executed six warrants of arrest for six people they were looking for.
The remaining accused, Zane Kilian, will stand trial alone.
The case relates to a shooting at Booth s house in April 2020.
The accused faced charges relating to gang activity, as well as charges of conspiracy to commit murder, attempted murder, the illegal possession of a firearm and the illegal possession of ammunition.
Springs debt collector, Kilian, was joined to the case after his arrest in connection with the murder of Anti-Gang Unit detective Charl Kinnear, who was shot dead on 18 September 2020.
