EMPD swoops on suspected female dagga dealer
A 35-year-old woman was arrested near a school in Brakpan, on Friday, last week, for dealing in dagga.
The woman was caught by members of the Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Police Department’s Equestrian Unit, at about 11am.
“The suspect, who was seen lingering around Laerskool Kommando, was found with 35 packets of ready-for-sale dagga, as well as a plastic bag full of unpacked dagga,” said EMPD spokesperson Chief Supt Wilfred Kgasago.
The dagga has a street value estimated at R800.
“She was detained at the Brakpan Police Station, on charges of possession and dealing in dagga,” added Kgasago.
Earlier that morning, the unit arrested three men in the Brakpan CBD for being in possession of dagga.
The suspects, aged 19, 25 and 28, were found in possession of a dozen packets of dagga and drug paraphernalia.
In addition, the unit also arrested three undocumented men in the Brakpan CBD, on Friday afternoon.
