Barely few days after Luchenza Police in Thyolo arrested three people in connection to theft of railway materials along Limbe-Sandama railway line which is under rehabilitation, today two other suspects have also been nabbed over the same.

Police at Luchenza in Thyolo have arrested three people in connection to the theft rail materials along Limbe-Sandama railway line valued at K3.8 million.

Construction of the Limbe-Sandama railway line is likely to incur additional costs due to increased vandalism of materials in Thyolo along Nansadi, Ndata farm, Makandi and seven villages in Luchenza.

Rehabilitation of Limbe-Sandama railway line has resumed five months after works were suspended due to COVID-19.
