Johannesburg - Five men were arrested on Sunday in connection with the murder of reggae musician Lucky Dube, East Rand police said.

Police arrested the five, aged between 31 and 35, in Spruitview on the East Rand on Sunday morning.

Police spokesperson Eugene Opperman said police seized two stolen handguns and a VW Polo allegedly used during the crime.

"Police also recovered three other stolen vehicles during the investigation this morning," he said.

The five will appear in the Johannesburg Magistrate's Court on Tuesday.

Opperman said: "The initial police reports regarding the murder being related to a botched hijacking remain correct."

Dube was gunned down on Thursday night in Rosettenville, Johannesburg, while dropping his two teenage children at his brother's house.
