The Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation Mpumalanga is seeking the assistance of the public about the whereabouts of Norman Silvester Mokoena (23) years old known as “Dallas” who escaped from Calcutta Magistrate Court holding cells last year.
On the 05 November 2019 Mokoena escaped from the holding cells after he was denied bail for a series of armed robbery cases he committed in the Bushbuckridge (Marite) area where he targeted delivery trucks.

He was traced and arrested afterwards where he was found in possession of an unlicensed firearm with ammunition. He was charged on various armed robbery cases.
