An intelligence driven operation by the Hawks’ Serious Organised Crime Investigation led to the arrest of a 41-year-old suspect in Jourbeton on Friday for possession of drugs.
The investigation team executed a search warrant and found the suspect in possession of Crystal Meth and Mandrax tablets.
A second house on the same street was searched where Khat and Mandrax tablets worth approximately R57 000 were found hidden in a sports bag. The drugs were seized and the tenant of the room is being traced.
Meanwhile, the suspect arrested in the first house will appear at the Klerksdorp Magistrate’s Court on Monday.
