A 31-year-old Van Riebeeck Park resident was arrested on Monday morning at 8am for allegedly cultivating dagga at his house on Langeberg Street.

“Members responded to the complaint and arrested a male suspect for manufacturing and cultivation of dagga with an estimated value of R1 000.”
The suspect will face charges, of manufacturing and planting dagga, in Kempton Park Magistrate’s Court.
Norkem Park SAPS, with the help of other law enforcement agencies, made seven arrests at the weekend.
