A 30 year old police reservist stationing at Camps Bay and another 34 year old suspect are behind bars for the possession of dagga.

The duo was nabbed in Ocean View yesterday.

Police’s Inspector Nkosikho Mzuku says this follows a tip-off from the public about a delivery of large quantity of dagga that was going to take place.

“We proceeded to the location in an unmarked vehicle and immediately spotted a suspicious parked vehicle in the centre between the flats. Two males were busy retrieving suspicious looking black bags from the back seat of their vehicle and placing it in a bin,” says Mzuku.

He went on saying they swooped on the suspects and found the two black plastic bags containing 33 parcels of dagga wrapped in newspaper and a smaller bag also containing loose dagga filled with a quarter of dagga.

The estimated street value of the dagga is R200 00.
