The success of anti drug enforcement
agencies at Cape Town International has moved the drug trafficking trade to
national roads.
Lieutenant Colonel Andre Traut said that the war on drugs received a major boost when law enforcement agencies launched the Drug Watch initiative today.
The campaign aims to highlight efforts by
law enforcement agencies to clamp down on the drug smuggling trade and to give
people a way to report drug peddling in their communities.
The initiative was launched along the N7 highway to highlight what police and metro police are doing to clampdown on the drug smuggling trade.
Lieutenant Colonel Andre Traut said one of our major problems is the drug routes into and out of the province.
And that they trying to show the public that some of the vehicles driving up and down are up to no good.
After the official launch, Traut joined police officers at a nearby roadblock.
