While following a lead on a stolen laptop, on Wednesday, officers from the Ekurhuleni Flying Squad (Germiston) arrested a 34-year-old woman on a charge of drug possession.
“Officers noticed the woman while they were in Willow Road, Primrose,” explained Sgt Styles Maome, communications officer for the Primrose police.
“The woman allegedly panicked when she saw them and that made the officers suspicious and they approached her.”

The officers found a white substance they believed to be drugs in a small black box she was holding.
“When asked what the substance was the woman reportedly confessed that it was drugs for her own use,” said Maome.
She was arrested and taken to the Primrose Police Station.
She has since appeared in the Germiston Magistrate’s Court where her case was postponed for plea and trial.
