The Hawks Priority Crime Specialised Investigation team and Asset Forfeiture Unit said they have successfully secured a final forfeiture order to an amount of R75 000 against Anayo Njubigb (44). 

The Hawks spokesperson in Northern Cape, Lieutenant Col Tebogo Thebe said: “This comes after the accused was arrested by Upington K9, whilst conducting their day-to-day stop and search. During the search, a black bag was found containing 1012 mandrax tablets with an estimated street value of R25 000.

“The matter was then referred to Priority Crime Specialised Investigation and AFU for further investigation.” 

Thebe said the forfeiture order was granted by the Northern Cape High Court sitting in Kimberley on 17 May 2024.
