Ravensmead SAPS remains resolute to rid their community from the scourge of drug abuse and the distribution thereof, which is regarded as a major contributor towards the commission of serious and violent crime within their policing precinct.
On Tuesday, 20 August 2024 at about 05:30, Ravensmead SAPS Crime Prevention Unit members were busy with tracing of wanted suspects at Christine Court, 10 th Avenue, Ravensmead when they noticed a suspicious looking male and decided to approach him. Upon searching the suspect they discovered 175 sachets of cocaine with a street value of about R17 500 in his possession.
The members arrested the 30-year-old suspect and confiscated the cocaine. The suspect is scheduled to appear in the Bellville Magistrates’ court for possession of drugs once he has been charged.
