Barrydale police confiscate two unlicensed firearms and several rounds of ammunition

WESTERN CAPE - Concerted efforts by police to remove unlicensed firearms from the streets yielded success when Barrydale police confiscated two unlicensed firearms and several rounds of ammunition at a house in Barrydale.

On Tuesday, 28 October 2025 at about 18:00 members attached to the Barrydale police responded to information of unlicensed firearms being kept at the residence, whilst attending to a domestic related dispute. The members immediately operationalised the information and descended on the premises. A search of the residence ensued leading the members to the bedroom where a firearm was found concealed under a pillow and another in the bedroom cupboard. 


The search took the team to the bathroom where several rounds of ammunition was discovered. Two Browning pistols as well as 235 9mm rounds were confiscated and a 75-year-old woman who was unable to account for the possession thereof was arrested.

The suspect, who was later released, is facing charges of unlawful possession of firearms and ammunition. She is scheduled to make her first appearance in court on 06 November 2025.

Western Cape police management commended the members for their swift response to remove the firearms and ammunition from the community.

Minister Creecy and the senior management of ACSA must be called to report to committee on the scope of the brewing crisis, and their plans to address it. It is unacceptable that flights are being grounded at South African airports due to failures by entities within the Department of Transport. It simply cannot continue. This week, flights were delayed and diverted at Cape Town International Airport due to a fuel pump failure under the management of Airports Company South Africa (ACSA). Earlier this month, alarming reports revealed that ACSA has fuel supply at OR Tambo International Airport only until the end of January 2025, raising grave concerns about operational stability in February.
