South Africa’s Major Drug Busts | Johannesburg News
from Johannesburg News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
South Africa’s police delivered a major blow to the drug trade last week, seizing millions in drugs and arresting over 3,000 suspects across the country. In Pretoria, they shut down a massive Mandrax lab producing 800,000 pills daily, nabbing two Mozambicans and uncovering a crystal meth operation in the same facility. Operations spanned provinces — Mpumalanga saw a two-million-rand dagga haul after a high-speed chase, while the Western Cape intercepted 57,000 Mandrax tablets and five kilograms of cocaine worth nearly six million rands. Led by the Hawks and multiple agencies, this nationwide crackdown sends a clear message: authorities are stepping up to dismantle criminal networks and protect communities.
