Police said Woodstock and Salt River drug dealers are forcing young girls into prostitution.

Some of the girls said police officials are often addicted to drugs themselves and live in shady places.

Residents have contacted police with their ongoing concern on the increasing number of drug houses.

Police raided two houses on Thursday in Woodstock and confiscated 31 packets of tik, packets of ungah, rocks of cocaine and used tik pipes at the house.

During the operation two men, one aged 33 and a woman was arrested for possession of drugs.

One of the houses belonged to a businessman in the area and police are now taking legal action to take his home.

Parents have been urges to take care of their children and to ensure they know their children’s whereabouts at all times.
