Seven people have been arrested in Pietermaritzburg for allegedly lodging false claims with the Road Accident Fund (RAF), the KwaZulu-Natal police said on Thursday.
“On Wednesday, we arrested seven people aged between 32 and 52 in Northdale, Pietermaritzburg, for claiming to have been travelling in a minibus taxi that was involved in an accident,” Lieutenant-Colonel Vincent Mdunge said.
He said investigations revealed that none of the claimants was involved in an accident.
