The Operation Vala Umgodi team in the Frances Baard district remains persistent in fighting the scourge of illegal mining and drug trafficking by conducting continuous disruptive operations.
The multi-disciplinary team followed up on information gathered about drug trafficking at identified houses in Valspan, Jan Kempdorp, on Tuesday, 04 June 2024.
The operation led to the arrest of a 19 year old male and a 30 year old female for possession of suspected drugs.
Crystal Meth (tik) with an estimated street value of R7 400 was confiscated with cash believed to be the proceeds of crime.
The police furthermore arrested a 44 year old female for obstructing police in the execution of their duties and resisting arrest.
All three suspects will appear in court soon.
Disruptive actions addressing illicit mining and related crimes will persist throughout the district.
