Monday morning, 1 July 2024 at about 02:45 Bloemfontein Highway Patrol while patrolling and conducting stop and search spotted a white Toyota Hilux bakkie with canopy with GP registration heading towards Colesbrug. They followed the vehicle and managed to safely stop it near a farm still on the N1.Two males alighted from the bakkie to be searched and while searching and going through the vehicle, members found 12 compressed dagga packages sealed with brown sello tape, worth an estimated R1.7 million. The two suspects, aged 23 and 25, were arrested for dealing in dagga after the discovery. Members added another charge of driving without a driver’s licence, as the driver did not have a driving licence with him.
