Twelve kilograms of dagga was recovered yesterday when a long-distance bus travelling from Durban to Cape Town was stopped and searched by the police on the N2 near Grahamstown.
Although members of the Grahamstown highway patrol found two large bags packed with dagga among ladies and children’s clothes, they were not able to locate the owner of the bag. The dagga, weighing in at 12kg, has a street value of approximately R12 000.
In a separate incident later that same afternoon, a 29-year-old man was arrested for possession of a stolen trailer. The suspect was driving from King Williams Town to Port Elizabeth when the driver was pulled over. The trailer had no rear registration plates and the chassis number was ground off. Authorities discovered that the trailer, valued at R14 000, had allegedly been stolen in April in Walmer. The man is due to appear in the Grahamstown Magistrate’s Court soon.
