Two suspects have appeared in the Mitchell’s Plain Magistrate court this morning, for being in possession of abalone worth more than R600 000.

The suspects were arrested at different houses in Eastridge on Saturday.

“The WC Organised Crime Unite received the information from the public and that led to the obtaining of the search warrant,” said Inspector November Filander.

On their first operation police confiscated more than 5 000 abalones and a 43 year old man was arrested.

At the second address a 41 year old woman was arrested after the following items were found in the house: crayfish tails, abalones and illegall cigarettes.
