WESTERN CAPE: In the pursuit of excellence, police members of the Provincial Organised Crime Narcotics unit in Cape Town pursued information of a passenger responsible for drug trafficking through Cape Town International Airport on Tuesday 04 October 2022.
The members were strategically placed to profile and searched passengers disembarking from an International flight from Dubai just before midday. Amidst the hustle and bustle, they kept their sights focussed and conducted intense searches. Their mandate was fulfilled when they confiscated 4 kg of cocaine wrapped in chocolate wrappings hidden in the luggage of one of the passengers. A 37 year old man was arrested and detained on a charge of dealing in drugs.
Once charged, the suspect will make a court appearance in the Bellville Magistrates’ Court on the mentioned charge.
