Police spokesperson Daniel Mavimbela says among the suspects is a 29-year-old woman who was nabbed on a charge of murder. 


She allegedly attacked a man believed to be her ex-boyfriend at a tavern in Villeria.


More than fifty percent of those arrested in areas like Pretoria central, Atteridgeville, Sunnyside, Hammanskraal and Bronkhorstspruit are facing charges for selling liquor without a license, drunken driving, assault, possession of drugs and sexual assault.


Mavimbela says some of the suspects were also arrested during roadblock and routine patrols in the city.

The suspects are expected to appear in court soon.
