Springs SAPS crime-prevention operations yielded good results when they arrested a man in the Springs precinct for dealing in drugs last Thursday evening.
Spokesperson Capt Johannes Ramphora said soon after the first arrest, they intensified their stop-and-search operation and within a short space of time, a second man was arrested in the vicinity for possession of drugs.
The street value of the drugs, which the police believe to be khat, is estimated at R5 000.
