On June 24, the EMPD First Responder Unit, members of Nigel SAPS and the local SAPS Crime Prevention operation arrested a man and seized a variety of narcotics.
The arrest was made as part of a high-density operation in the area.
EMPD officers searched the man, a Nigerian national, opposite a well-known tavern while on foot patrol.
He had 17 packets of crystal meth, rocks, packets of nyaope and two half-brown packets, R2 700, in his possession.
The arrested suspect is facing charges for possession of illicit substances and will appear in the Nigel Magistrate’s Court soon.
