Cape Town, South Africa has become a haven for foreign fugitives, with recent cases highlighting the presence of individuals wanted internationally who are finding refuge and employment within the city. A fitness trainer recently discovered to be the subject of an Interpol alert is the latest example of this growing trend, raising concerns about security and crime in upmarket areas.
Interpol Alert: Drug Trafficking Suspect Found in Cape Town
Stamenov, a gym trainer, was found to be wanted in connection with international drug trafficking. Authorities were alerted to his presence while he was employed at a Virgin Active gym in Cape Town. Virgin Active’s legal team is currently cooperating with authorities regarding the matter.
The case has raised concerns in Constantia, an affluent suburb of Cape Town, as it suggests that even high-security areas are not immune to the infiltration of individuals involved in criminal activity. Reports indicate Stamenov was operating as a fitness guru while being sought by Interpol.
This incident is not isolated. Cape Town has reportedly become a desirable location for fugitives due to a perceived lack of stringent checks and a relatively easy lifestyle. The city’s allure extends to those attempting to evade justice in their home countries.
Authorities are investigating how Stamenov was able to enter and remain in South Africa undetected for a period of time. The investigation is ongoing, and further details are expected to emerge as the case progresses.
