This comes after the EMPD First Responder Unit members acted upon information provided by members of the community in Duduza, about people in a house suspected of selling drugs, says EMPD spokesman Wilfred Kgasago.
“After the house was identified the metro police observed what was happening at the premises for a few hours.
“The house was then raided and a man arrested with dagga and nyaope confiscated.
