The Hawks in KwaZulu-Natal have foiled an alleged assassination plot against a senior office bearer in Dundee in the province’s midlands.

The raid was conducted on Thursday and they arrested a 31-year-old mayor, a 38-year-old councillor and a 36-year-old man suspected of being a hitman at Estcourt.

It’s alleged the mayor had conspired to murder his colleague in the municipality over the awarding of tenders.

The suspects are expected to appear in court on Thursday.
