Police arrested a 39-year-old Tanzanian national in possession of R36 000 worth of heroine.
On December 3 the Witbank Crime Intelligence and K9 units made their way to 6 Langenhoven Street with the prospect of arresting one of the heroine dealers plaguing eMalahleni.
The heroine ‘bullets’ found in Abdallah Mfaume’s possession.
It was just after 20:00 when police barged through the door and arrested the suspect named Abdallah Mfaume. The police proceeded to search Mfaume’s home and found wads of money as well as heroine to the street value of R36 000.
The heroine was in ‘bullets’ as street lingo goes, these ‘bullets’ are inserted rectally – giving a prolonged high.
Mfaume spent the weekend in jail after he stood before the court on charges of dealing in drugs. He appeared at the Witbank Magistrates Court on Friday, December 4. His case was postponed for further investigation.
Abdallah Mfaume is being charged with dealing in drugs after being caught in possession of R36 000 worth of drugs.
“The station commander of Witbank SAPS sends a firm warning to all drug dealers that their days are numbered and through visible policing patrols and our intelligence operations we will expose them,” said Capt Eddie Hall, Witbank police communications.
Capt Hall requests the youth of the city not to get involved in drugs and not to buy drugs from these dealers that taint the city.
