Police in South Africa have arrested a man for smuggling his girlfriend in the back of a car during a nationwide lockdown.
Faith Mazibuko, an official from the province of Guateng, tweeted that the woman was found during a security check on Friday.
The woman was also arrested for “consenting to be smuggled,” Mrs Mazibuko added.
South Africa imposed a lockdown on 24 March for three weeks but the authorities have extended it until the end of April.
Travel across the country is restricted for everybody except those providing essential services, as defined by the government.
