In yet another success against drug dealers as a result of a tip-off from members of the community, the EMPD Drug Enforcement Unit nabbed two people.
The arrests of a 26-year-old man and a 20-year-old woman took place last Tuesday at about 5.25am.
They were allegedly found in possession of crystal methamphetamine and Kat with a street value of R4 600.
“As per information received, the EMPD members swooped on a house in Extension Five in Katlehong,” said Chief Supt Wilfred Kgasago, spokesperson for the EMPD.
