During a recent patrol at the Makause informal settlement, the Primrose police arrested two men.
The men, aged 33 and 36, were charged with dealing in liquor without a license when they failed to provide their liquor licenses to police.
Both men were taken to the Primrose Police Station pending their appearance in the Germiston Magistrates Court.
“We continue to have a serious problem with liquor and illegal liquor sales in the informal settlements.
“In an effort to stop this problem we continue to host similar operations in all of the informal settlements,” said Sgt Styles Maome, communications officer for the Primrose police.
Both men have since appeared in court where they paid an admission of guilt fine and were released with a warning.
