Cash amounting to R2 600 suspected to be the proceeds of illicit dealings were also found.
“The male suspects, aged 38 and 43 years old respectively, decided not to cooperate with officers during the exercise before they were incapacitated and marched to the Primrose Police Station, where they were charged with possession of and dealing in illicit substances, as well as resisting arrest,” said Kobeli Mokheseng, EMPD media liaison officer.
“They are expected to appear in the Germiston Magistrate’s Court soon.”
