JOHANNESBURG - Six suspects, including a police sergeant, are in court for the kidnapping of 19-year-old Kamogelo Baukudi.
He was rescued in Wepener in the Free State during an intelligence-driven operation on Friday morning.
Five suspects were arrested during the operation.
He'd been missing for weeks after being taken while on his way home from school in Bloemfontein.
The 42-year-old sergeant was the first to be arrested and has been charged with kidnapping and extortion.
