One Zimbabwean and one Mozambican male suspects were selling Benlyn cough syrup, Bronclear and Painagon syrup to community members of Olievenhoubosh.

The pair was also found in possession of ammunition. They were both arrested for contravening the Medicine and Realated Substance act 101 of 1965 and possession of ammunition.
