Johannesburg - A Malawian was sentenced to six years in prison for opening a false business robbery case at a Johannesburg police station three years ago.
Daniel Mike Banda, 39, had opened a case of business robbery when he told police that he had been accosted by 15 suspects at Lockie’s Plastic, a business based in Turfontein, in the south of Johannesburg.
