Two Alex men have been sentenced by the Alex Magistrates’ Court to three years in prison for an attempted break-in at a local church.
The two pleaded guilty, however, their accomplice is still at large.
They were arrested on the night of 18 June this year after being cornered by security guards while attempting to break into the Winners Chapel International on 1st Street, Wynberg. Passing sentence, the magistrate quipped that if it were possible, the men probably deserved an additional sentence committing them to regular church service for atonement to the Almighty for their sinful act.
