A well-known drug dealer in Krugersdorp West was arrested following the discovery of Ecstasy, Cat and Crystal Meth.
A tip-off by a member of the community led police and local Community Policing Forum (CPF) members to a drug jackpot in Krugersdorp West.
Late last night, 7 September, members of the Sector 5 CPF along with police were called to help evict foreign nationals who were squatting on a property in Beyers Street.
At the eviction, the patrollers and police found a known drug dealer and other illegal occupants in the house.
