R87k dagga haul seized, four suspects arrested in Kimberley
Dagga with an estimated street value of R87 120 was seized, along with a Ford Figo believed to have been used in the commission of a crime.
On Sunday, September 20, police in Kimberley, Northern Cape, conducted a search operation near a taxi rank and seized approximately R87,120 worth of dagga, alongside ammunition. Four people were arrested during the raid. A member of the Kimberley Public Order Police spotted a male suspect with two small bags of dagga; he then informed the officers about the source of his stash.
The police then searched another taxi rank and found a vehicle with three people inside. Upon searching the vehicle, they discovered additional dagga. Further investigations led them to two locations in Kimberley and Galeshewe, where they found a large amount of dagga and ammunition. The four suspects arrested are believed to be foreigners and face charges of drug possession and carrying unlicensed firearms.
They are set to appear in court soon. The seized dagga had an estimated street value of R87,120, and a Ford Figo car believed to be involved in a crime was also seized.
