A truck identified by Crime Intelligence Border Security as being used for the smuggling of heroin from Mozambique to South Africa via Swaziland, arrived at the border post last Wednesday.
Golela police officers were notified and the truck was intercepted just before it left the border post.
An inspection of the truck revealed a false compartment in which the huge haul was found.
