Limpopo police arrest suspected dagga fealer in Musina bust
Police spokesperson Malesela Ledwaba says a second suspect evaded arrest.
Limpopo police have apprehended a suspected dagga dealer in a recent operation in Musina. According to police spokesperson Malesela Ledwaba, one additional suspect managed to escape arrest. Two weeks prior, police conducted a significant drug bust at a farm in the area, resulting in the seizure of a crystal-meth laboratory valued at R600 million.
This led to the arrest of five individuals, comprising two Mexicans and three Zimbabweans. Ledwaba announced that the arrested individual will face court proceedings shortly. Lieutenant General Jan Scheepers, the Provincial Commissioner of SAPS in Limpopo, expressed satisfaction with the operation's outcome and emphasized the importance of ongoing collaboration among law enforcement agencies and government stakeholders.
He stressed that multidisciplinary operations, including "Operation Retshepeng," will persist in addressing criminal activities and maintaining public safety across the province.
