Media Statement
NORTHERN CAPE – The police in the ZF Mgcawu district continues with their relentless efforts in eradicating drugs from the streets. This was evident when a team comprising of Upington Border Police and the ZF Mgcawu district highway patrol arrested a 52-year-old Congolese National male suspect for selling drugs in Upington on Thursday, 04 April 2024. The members operationalised information regarding alleged drug sales at the Upington taxi rank and found dagga that led them to an address in Pabalello where the dagga is believed to have been stored. The team seized dagga valued at approximately R130 000, 00 and charged the 35-year-old male suspect for dealing in drugs. The suspect is expected to appear in the Upington Magistrate Court soon. The Acting Provincial Commissioner of the Northern Cape, Major General Luntu Ngubelanga commended the police units for squeezing the space for drug dealers to operate in our communities.
He encouraged the public to rate the police efforts in fighting crime by participating in the “RATE OUR SERVICE” online survey to assist the police in improving services.
