PRASA (Metrorail) Protection Services and specialist investigators say they are continuing to work hand in hand with SAPS in the investigation into the recent train fires at Cape Town Station.

The investigation is progressing well and fresh images have been released to encourage more people to contact the investigation officer with information about several persons of interest who police believe can assist them in their investigation.

Metrorail Western Cape Regional Manager Richard Walker says it is heart-breaking to see communities so dependent on affordable public transport being robbed of mobility shortly before the year end festivities:

“Breadwinners working hard to ensure that their families are provided for during the upcoming festive time and saving for school expenses next year are forced to spend much-needed money on transport rather than their loved ones”.

He encouraged more individuals and communities to do their civic duty to come forward with information about the incident or about the persons of interest.
