Two City of Cape Town Law enforcement officers, have been accused of corruption and extortion.
They were arrested by members of the Hawks, this morning.
The officers allegedly targeted foreign owned spaza shops in Table View and Philippi East.

The pair will appear in the Cape Town Magistrates Court on Wednesday.
Hawks spokesperson, Zinzi Hani explains.
