South African police said on Thursday two suspects had been arrested in a probe into violations of laws related to weapons of mass destruction (WMD), just one day after charges were dropped against another suspect. "There were two more arrests on Wednesday related to WMD charges," police spokeswoman Sally de Beer said. "One man was arrested in (the port city of) Durban and one in Johannesburg ... They will definitely appear in court, but we don't know when at this stage. The investigations are continuing," she said. She said the suspects could be held for up to 48 hours before they had to be formally charged. |
