“The Task Team followed up on information received from Crime Intelligence members working in the Tactical Team,”
“They followed the suspicious vehicle with two occupants to the Tambo Memorial Hospital parking lot, where the suspects, a 30-year-old woman and a 34-year-old man were found in possession of the illegal substance,” said police spokeswoman Captain Nomsa Sekele.
The drugs were seized and the suspects were arrested and taken to the Boksburg SAPS, where they were charged with possession and dealing in drugs.
