Two suspects aged 21 and 40 were arrested for dealing in dagga in Kakamas on 11 July 2024. This comes after the members of Upington Public Order Policing (POP), were conducting high density patrols in Kakamas during which they conducted cordon and search operation at two premises.
The ZF Mgcawu District police spokesperson, Sergeant Omphime Masegela said during the search at the identified house, they found dagga to the estimated value of R98 750. Masegela said they continued with the operation in the area, where they conducted another search and seizure operation at the second identified house and confiscated dagga amounting to R36 000 and undisclosed amount of cash.
“The suspects are expected to appear in court soon. The police in the ZFM District are determined to stamp the authority of the state by fighting towards creating a drug free society.
“This includes reducing possibilities of young people falling trap of drugs through continuous search and seizure operations, as well as visible patrols in hot spot areas,” she said.
