Members of the Hawks, police and customs have seized more than a ton of the drug hashish which has a street value of some 36-million rands.


The raid was carried out in Tulisa Park in Johannesburg at the weekend.

A tip from a member of the public led to an investigation lasting some weeks before the hashish was
confiscated.


Some of the hashish had been packaged and labeled as a popular brand of pet food as well as coffee and tobacco.
