Minister of Police Nathi Mthethwa on Tuesday launched the Anti-Drug Campaign in Mitchell’s Plain. 

Mthethwa said the use of drugs has become an international challenge.

He added that the drug challenge has been complicated by the increasing manufacturing and sale of dependency-forming substances with legal chemical substances.

As part of the campaign, the police will implement intelligence-driven, concerted and programmatic interventions aimed at dealing seriously with the illegal drug trade and use. 

Ministerial Spokesperson Zweli Mnisi said the Ministry is confident that this challenge will be eradicated and that would need partnerships between police and communities.

Mnisi added that communities can play a meaningful role in the fight against drugs.
