In the fight against the dealing and use of drugs in the Western Cape, police officers from the Anti-Economical and Extortion Task Team continued to root out the illegal trade of drugs in this province.
Due to the perseverance of the police members they responded to information of a possible distribution point for drugs. In the early hours of Tuesday 29 October 2024, a multi-disciplinary team responded to intelligence driven information and approached a residence in Parow. Upon entering the house, a search ensued which resulted in the recovery of a consignment of drugs with an estimated street value of R1 million. They detained a 42-year-old foreign national for dealing in drugs.
Once charged the suspect is expected to make a court appearance in the Parow Magistrates’ court on the mentioned charge.
